    Guillaume Lemaire

    I was just in talks with him about 2 weeks ago getting advice on a balanced cable for my headphone setup.  I was going to order one from him as soon as I could get the money together to pay for it.  This was the first time I recall interacting with him.  I can only echo all the kind words that...

    Reasonable price range for a Rotel 1572 processor

    Hi all I'm trying to help someone (not a Forum member) sell their Rotel 1572 AV processor.  Its in great condition and the owner has the original box and all the accessories.  Any idea of what a reasonable going rate for this would be?  I don't want him to try and pitch it too high/or rip...

    Connecting Marantz 8802A to the internet

    Hi Rogers I think you should just sell me the 8802A and upgrade to something better.  You know you deserve it.  ;D Alastair

    Advice needed: 4K player DAC, Processor DAC, or separate DAC?

    Hi all I have received some additional advice on this recommending me to rather go with a more modern receiver rather than continuing the processor route.  This feels like it would be a step backwards to me but am I just being irrational?  In other words, has the gap between receivers and...

    Advice needed: 4K player DAC, Processor DAC, or separate DAC?

    Hi Drifter Now you're making me feel bad.  Yes I do watch movies more than once.  I recently watched something that I'd seen about 2 years ago and could remember nothing in the storyline.  Maybe I'm just getting old.  ;D Either way it still works for me.  We also have a bit of a family...

    Advice needed: 4K player DAC, Processor DAC, or separate DAC?

    I've even been buying 3D blu rays in the last few months.  Maybe I'm just having a mid-life crisis.  ;D Alastair

    Advice needed: 4K player DAC, Processor DAC, or separate DAC?

    Hi all I'm with Avian on this.  I like the physical discs and generally prefer those over the streaming equivalent from a quality point of view.  I am not as convinced that physical media is completely on its way out (although it definitely seems to be so in South Africa).  I have in fact...

    Advice needed: 4K player DAC, Processor DAC, or separate DAC?

    Hi Drifter Thank you for filling in some of the holes exposed by my ignorance.  ;D Yes this would be mainly for movies at this point. Although I do enjoy my stereo listening, while my kids are still at home, it will be mostly movies.  I did not realize that I was limited to stereo when it comes...

    Advice needed: 4K player DAC, Processor DAC, or separate DAC?

    Hi all I am at a bit of cross roads and so have an opportunity to change the way I have been doing things in the past, if it makes sense.  What I have done in the past is have my Oppo BDP 95 blu ray player send video straight to the Projector via HDMI but send audio via multi-channel inputs to...

    Tidal Costs

    Hi all For the guys who are paying R158 and not R120, how many of you created a Tidal account on an Apple device? Just for clarity, I'm not talking about the R180 family plan, I'm talking about the seeming discrepancy between guys who seem to be paying different prices for the same service...

    R20k-R25k budget 4k projector or TV what say you??

    Hi all Apaprently though, not all the JVC and Sony's are native 4K either, only some of them, unless I am mistaken.  I also cannot comment on the difference between native 4K and not, as I dont have a 4K projector.  Maybe those familiar with this topic could comment on how big a difference the...

    Looking for somebody in Mosselbay who is willing to assist with simple purchase

    Hi Nirvana Thanks for the question.  I'm not expecting the volunteer to do any verification for me.  I'm trusting that the seller is legit.  If I am wrong, then thats the risk I take.  I can send the volunteer pics of what has been agreed on so they can at least check that what they are...
