Re: New Linn Launch 2022
I received the email about this today, and I'm not interested having only just acquired a Klimax DS earlier this year. However what interests me is what will be the difference between a new £30K box a...

Re: Streaming service
I have a love/hate relationship with Spotify. I appreciate its engagement and musicality, otoh I miss some sound quality which Qobuz provides. So I am deeply disappointed with Spotify's decision not ...

Re: Streaming service
On a side note, and to disprove your theory, I’m very much in late middle age, having turned 60 last year. What I have found with Källa is that I’m listening to whole albums again, rather than jumpin...

Re: XLR to RCA cables or adaptors?

NAS Hard Drive 'problems' (maybe)
Every so often I take a shufti at my NAS, which is QNAP TS253A with 2 x WD Red 3gb HDD using Raid 1. For about 6 months I have been getting messages saying for one of the disks "Warning [Disk S.M.A.R....
