    Floor-standing speakers with a R140k budget?

    Thank you for the advice. I do appreciate it. My challenge is a cashflow one. I spent quite a lot of money on the auction where I purchased these Vivids on. Between that and the living off my savings for the last 3 months (I lost my job in October), I do not have the R25k for the 2...

    Hi BLight I have a pair of HD6XXs that Im looking to sell with your choice of Loxjie P20 tube amp, Chord Mojo headphone amp, and Audioquest Dragonfly red (with Jitterbug). Let me know if you're interested or just want to come give them a listen. Im not sure where you're based but Im on the...

    Floor-standing speakers with a R140k budget?

    Hi PWatts I think that's a bit harsh on the Vivids. With their older driver range I think you have a point. But with the newer ones with the cage over them, I think they become quite difficult to accidentally damage. As for transport damage, if they come with the original travel cases like...

    Floor-standing speakers with a R140k budget?

    Maybe I should have been more specific on the price of these Vivid K1s. If taken with the new design tweeters and midrange drivers R135k. This means that both sets of tweeters and midrange drivers will be brand new (and the latest design) to go with the excellent condition cabinets...

    Floor-standing speakers with a R140k budget?

    Hi guys Could I not interest you in these bad boys. For R140k you'll end up with some of the best speakers locally built with brand new midrange and tweeters on both, as well as a bit of change. Just saying. ;)

    Orders on Raru

    Hi guys Thanks for all the feedback. I was offered "store credit" or a voucher but what good does that do? You then have to place that order again or another one for different items and that just restarts the clock for them at zero. It's ridiculous. But thanks for the suggestions on how to...

    Hi guys I'm seriously concerned that Raru are going out of business. Has anyone placed an order on them recently? If so, when? I'm trying to figure out if they are still accepting orders or not, hence the question. I placed an order for 15 items in July, delivery was scheduled for 5...

    Advice needed: Dolby Atmos speaker Placement

    Hi Rudi Thanks for this comprehensive response. I've learned a lot. I had been planning on trying to find a Marantz AV8802a or something similiar, but I clearly don't know enough to do any of that just yet. So I am really glad that I asked the question. 😁 Alastair

    Advice needed: Dolby Atmos speaker Placement

    Hi Rudi Just to confirm, you are saying no bigger than 7.1.4? I had been planning on 7.1.6 (in my ignorance) so you are saying that the extra 2 ceiling speakers will be a waste? Alastair
