Speak to Kevin at RecordMad on 0834195912, he's got a South African section in the shop. Pretty sure I've seen it there before.

The Nick Drake Pink Moon box set is the best version of that record I have heard... well worth it I think. Google the reviews of the box set, there is very positive comments about it on the net.

This would be funny if it wasn't so sad. Go have a look at the download card that comes with the record, it does have an expiry date on it. I checked the St Germain Tourist record and it is there, in french for all to see - the download expired in June 2012. If you have been buying vinyl...

Not sure why you believe expired downloads is Musica's fault, it is not. They are merely facilitating the supply of items to consumers that want those items. The record company is the only party at fault, if there is a fault to be found. They provide a download as an added bonus when the records...

Just fitted a Sumiko Blue Point No 2 and I think it rocks. Definitely in a different league to the Ortofon 2M Blue if that is what you are referring to and less hassle than importing. speak to Hi-phibian on this forum.

I read somewhere that this player was literally Technics' 'CD version' of their 1012 turntable. It was specifically made with the same cast base (cant see this in the pic properly) and feet as well as the variable pitch slider you see on the right. I think the article appeared in the HI FI News...

Sorry, I see this was posted already...

Have a look at this - not outrageously expensive at all and works along the lines of the two glass sheets and oven, except these are metal - http://vinylflat.com/  There is also a video on the net as well - just google 'Vinyl Flat Record Flattener - YouTube'

I bought Sunken Condos on CD the other day, I really like it. Well worth it on vinyl I think.

I use a large Ryobi bench drill that had a mild wobble but the bigger problem I had was that the standard chuck couldn't take really small drills as the jaws left a little gap in the middle. I then bought a Torkcraft chuck with jaws that completely close at builders for about R200 at the time...

Hi all Please see Chilli Vinyl's posting under 'Trader's Fair' for a list of records for sale. Cheers

Sent you a PM as well, I'll take 200 if you don't mind. Where are you exactly?

I use a pair of 705's bi-wired with twin runs of Kimber 4PR driven by a Quad 909 poweramp. Initially these sounded a little bass light, it was then recommended that I bi-wire them. This certainly cleaned up the sound and added to the bass but was not an all out solution for the light bass. Then...

I'll take 200 of those depending on price...

Would a netbook (with an external HD if more space is needed) running iTunes into a DAC then your hi fi handle it as a music server? Thinking being I don't have to use my company laptop all the time and the netbook is nice and small and can stay connected on the equipment stand even when not in...

I was at the Design Indaba in Cape Town last week and took the opportunity to visit some of the local vinyl dealers while I had the chance and what a jol that turned out to be. I visited Revolution Records in Observatory, very nice vibe, good selection of records including new pressings from...

Are those full range drivers or dual concentric like KEF and Tannoy?

Thanks guys, will have a look at some your suggestions...

Hi, use would be main stereo preferably without subwoofer - got serious space issues. Trying to find a solution for a family member.

What small bookshelf type speakers would you guys recommend for use literally on a shelf close or up against the wall? Like Wharfedale Diamonds etc. What should I look out for? Thanks
