Hi all, One of the last things my dad did as we was trying to settle affairs was to gift me a ReVox H system (amp, CD player, tape deck, and tuner). I think I would like to use the amp and cd player, and a good streaming DAC (maybe a Node X). Shipping them to SA with DHL, UPS or the like is...

PlayStation is buying premium headphone brand Audeze | Engadget Interesting development and curious how it’ll affect the brand in the longer term.

Hello all, Has anyone in Tshwane municipality been through the process of having an extension to their home approved. We’re planned on putting up a Wendy house and bricking up the sides of a steel framed roof to make a more weatherproof storage. After some reading it seems like Tshwane is...

The Celestee and Noire are compared a lot in reviews and contrasted a lot. I own the latter, and would love to try the former? Are there any Celestee owners (preferably in Gauteng) curious about listening to the Noires?

A question to the digital aficionados: Currently I use an AudioGD NFB 11.32 and I enjoy the sound through my PC into my headphones. However, I also feed the DAC through the optical out of my TV which the AudioGD seems to struggle with a little - there are occasional cut outs and the...

https://headphone.guru/hifiman-introduces-sundara-closed-back-planar-headphone/ This will be interesting to see reviewed. I don’t associate Hifiman with closed back headphones, and they famous for their open back planars. Giving this pair the Sundara name feels like a promise. They didn’t go...

A neighbour has an old pair of Beats Pro. They work great but the pads and headphone are going. I can see third party pads, but is there anyone who knows of someone who would recover the headband in Pretoria?

Question to those with more experience: I want to add a bit of convenience and sound quality to my setup. Currently, I either Bluetooth to a Fiio DAC (from iOS, so no fancy codecs) or I plug my iPad into an Ifi Zen DAC V2. Both use Tidal, the latter version with MQA. What I want to achieve...

I know this is a Hifi forum, but maybe anyone is a collector of Leica cameras, knows such an individual, or knows of a forum/site that might cater to that crowd. I have a rare little piece and would love to sell it to someone in South Africa, rather than taking it home to Germany and selling it...

This seems like a niche planar, but the reviews are universally positive ranging from great to greatest. Not seen one anywhere (either for sale new or used). Anyone have any experience. I?m heading home in December and saw a pair being sold close to where I live. Possibly going back to the...

Hi all, Looking for some advice. I?m using an Aura VA100 ii (a MOSFET amp from mid-90s). Overall, enjoying the sound. But there is a faint noise that: - is about 5khz with a hint of static, both channels - same regardless of gain (at volume down it?s there) - same regardless of inputs or...

Does anyone know whether replacing the wooden panels/case of vintage amps increases their value? What is better: original but scuffed or new and bespoke? I got a Sansui AU-101 and I will definitely keep the original panels (but they are scuffed). I did want to make new ones from some bargain...

I had built a set of headphone wall mounts a while back, but also wanted a stand for the desk. Wall mounts are round wood cutouts from a wine rack I built, with a copper pipe piece mounted. Stand is 22mm copper pipe, soldered and filled with sand to add weight. The dimensions didn?t quite work...
