A fellow I met has his CDs in several bookshelves. He sorts them by spine colour. Most DG labels are yellow, EMI are white with a red block, Archiv are silver and so on He has had this system for so long it works for him. There must be 3000 CDs

I also thought so, and so did Serge and other music-lovers. The late forum member Croak (Guilluame Lemaire) said removing a computer out of the circuit would be a breath of fresh air. He was right. The first device I tried was a Lindemann Limestone Bridge. It worked just as Guillame said it...

A computer is not the ideal music reproduction unit. Especially the built in sound chip in most computers. That is going backwards I abandoned a laptop some years ago and have a hard disc attached to a Lumin U2. This is then connected to a decent DAC. The results are far more satisfying

Using dbPower amp, copy them to a hard drive and use JRiver to organise the collection for you. I use a 4Tb SSD. JRiver costs $69.98 Did that for 4 people and it makes life much more convenient

Don't buy the (mostly) rubbish LAN cable that TakeaLot sells. You only find out after cutting a length, fitting RJ45s that there is not continuity in one of the conductors. Its not all rubbish, but what you get from Scoop is good quality cable A Cat6 LAN cable was found to have 0,2mm...

Perhaps you can also mention that there is an agent in Cape Town who can also supply vdH products directly from HBD Audio and at the same price That is Dean Nilson, who was also at the 2024 expo along with Harold Day Dean can be contacted here (@dean) and 0727177772. email: [email protected]

My neighbour's son proudly told me he is 8-1/2 He thinks his granny must be well over 100 since she wears granny clothes and has large text on her phone (she is 66) He told his mom that I listen to music quite loud and it sounds funny

They are most welcome to look at the rubbish I send and receive. 100 emails a day, 95 are spam or fake invoices. Then there is the twaddle I read and write on here, as well as other forums I don't know why people get so excited about security. If you follow common sense rules, it works ok

In my house have a 35m Cat5e LAN cable running from a TP-Link Gigabit router to a Ubiquiti AP. Using the 5GHz wifi from the Ubiquiti, I see more than 200 mb. Its a Vumatel fibre line

This model requires a 12 volt 1 amp power supply You would need to get a PoE adaptor This one is quite cheap - https://www.hdcabling.co.za/product/single-port-poe-injector-12-volt-to-57-volt-gigabit-ethernet-1gb-s-for-routerboards-and-other-gigabit-poe-devices/

Well, the voltage must match what the Access Point specifies Older Ubiquiti APs used 24 volts Newer models use 48 volts If you give me the make and model, I can look it up and as Equity says, does it operate with PoE or an external power socket

And a category for hearing-aid assisted listening....

I must apologise if my post mentioning a used Gryphon amp selling at what seemed to be a bargain price by my friend in Holland upset you. That wasn't the intention at all The amp, when I enquired, turned out to be 11 years old, hence the low price This fellow in Holland discounts everything...

Friend (somewhat niave) answered a "Free coupon" from Temu (that is what it said) Now he gets "Duty must be paid" and asks me what I thought. He was a bit put out when I told him it is a scam

A Post Card my grandfather wrote to his sweetheart in December 1911. They were married in May 1912. So formal in those days

My wife said this. She bought a bottle of the Douwe Egberts coffee. She thought it was perhaps a preservative. Apparently it tastes the same

A double dose of this may help ...

That does sound alarming. I see ePiphany quotes that price. I would be inclined to talk to them about it, pointing out what you find. Speak to Hein Vercuel It is not a bit like Apple products in SA? Cura are the agent/importers and add on their markup before iStore, etc sell the goods...

Referring to post # 86 I don't think that applies. All of the local club members and people I know buy goods from South African retailers. Because we may buy used import items on occasion, this does not mean that the local retailers have been abandoned. That is stretching the reason given...
