I have been eying the Behringer A800 pro amp for use domestically. Specifications look just right for a home amp, apart from the aesthetics. I would like to know if anyone here uses this product.

Any recommendations for movers who'll do all the packing and associated logicstics? Asking for someone wanting to move from Gauteng to Cape Town.

I had some fun with ChatGPT this morning, having read the comments in the other thread where @The Mod was asking about the SL-1200 (https://www.avforums.co.za/threads/sl1200-turntable-are-they-worth-it.110216/). If you have some time to waste, you might find it interesting...

Where can I find high quality (i.e., sound quality) versions of my favourite 80s House/Disco tracks? Of particular interest would be single versions. I want to compile a personal library of high quality audio tracks. Here is my YT play list, FYI (feel free to recommend more tracks; I'd...

I have been listening to my small CD collection in my car, which has a CD changer. A delightful discovery is the very good songs to be found on some "Best Of" -type albums. I have only a few; please share your favourites. The Best Of... OMD (Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark): The Best Of OMD...

These drivers are being sold online by a company called A1Sound. Any experience with this manufacturer? https://a1sound.co.za/N9-audio-6N100-6n100 Tx

We are getting ridiculous run-around form SARS. Our electronic components are stuck in customs because they are asking for an MSDS (material safety data sheet) for parts we are importing from Microchip. Fedex is no help. One would imagine that their agents can at least push back on behalf of...

My BIL is about to replace an old Sony Wega 81cm CRT TV that was a beast in its day. Sadly, now it has a very dim tube. Everything else is working. I was just wondering if there is anyone who might be interested in it. Location is Cape Town.

If you can forgive my mumbling and the low volume levels, I have something to share...

I came across this (IMO) very useful audio test video on YouTube. Now I have a challenge to all those who obsess with stereo imaging: play the part at 0:31 called Phantom Center Stability. You can try it with a good set of headphones and then on your room stereo. Your headphones should pass the...

Why do modern Jazz musicians all sound the same?

OMW! I just happened upon the music system of my latter teen years! Having lived with a rather nice Blaupunkt 1000 music system for some years, which was effectively mine, I moved back to my mom's house at age 17 after my dad passed. Late night matric studying and Karl Kikillus on the radio, I...

Has anyone here dealt with Falcon Acoustics in the UK? If so, how did you find their service? I ordered some drivers from them that is built-to-order by the manufacturer, Volt. They have been slow in getting back to me with an estimated time of delivery.

Can anyone advise if I understand this correctly: When Eskom power was down, power flow was shown as PV to Battery and Backup Power. Consumption was about 140W (only part of house is currently connected). Now that Eskom power is up, power flow is shown as PV to battery and (house symbol)...

Not exactly a pure "Alternative Power" issue, but I reckon the folks who know are to be found here. My cousin wants me to connect a surge protector onto her DB. Apparently it's an insurance requirement. I had a look, and now have a doubt. The DB is full to capacity, so anything additional will...

Are modern fridges different from old-school types? I recently bought a side-by-side fridge/freezer from one of those scratch & dent outlets. The unit is visibly new with a declared defective icemaker. They had a few of these and I chose one that had the least scuffing, with the prospect of me...

I'm asking from an insurance perspective. What are the requirements for motor vehicle window tint film to comply to this terminology?

I want to replace my car's old radio with a double DIN head unit. I seem to have found an example of what I would like on YouTube. Where can I find similar locally? Specific features I like: 3-way crossover + DSP, Android Auto. In the video the guy briefly mentions a 3-way crossover plus...
