    Balanced cable benefits for portable DAC/ Headphone amp?

    I'm not an expert. But from my knowledge, you would only need balanced cables if the headphone amp you buy is a balanced headphone amp. Has nothing to do with interference. Video explaining balanced cables

    What do you think of these songs as audio reference tracks?

    Was watching a guy reviewing a dac on YouTube and he was talking about a music ensemble called Rita Collective that he listens to when critiquing dacs. People in the comments section were also talking about them. You can download their album for $1 from Bandcamp. Rita Collective, are a chamber...

    Very underrated album by The Police. Also sounds good, which was a surprise seeing that it is a local pressing.

    I got the Thorens from Croak about six months before he passed (rip) I haven't used it much. But I am now making an effort to use it a lot more by going through all my old records. Been fun so far.

    Is live radio going the way of the dodo ?

    It looks like these DAB+ trials have been going on for more than ten years with two high power transmitting stations (10 kW transmitter power) 100 kW ERP situated in Johannesburg and Pretoria.

    Is live radio going the way of the dodo ?

    Is live radio going the way of the dodo ?

    I didn't know DAB radio was up and running in SA. Accidentally pushed the DAB button on my JBL Tuner portable radio this morning during load-shedding and whole lot of radio stations popped up. I listened a bit to LM Radio and also Fine Music a classical radio station based in Cape Town. Pretty cool.

    A friend of my father's left a stack of records when he immigrated. I grabbed a few to listen too. This one had an interesting cover. It is not quite jazz but sort of world music with mostly percussive instruments. Not my cup of tea, but interesting.
