Re: In Praise of the Pre-amp (Kinos with Unidisk SC)
I'd also recommend keeping an eye out for a Unidisc 2.1 or 1.1 and selling the SC. 2.1s and 1.1s have been pretty cheap recently on eBay etc.

Re: Tundra 2 power amplifier
Thanks Fredrik. Sounds like a very sensible choice to use the same case for both Tundra and Tundra Mono. Certainly increases the batch size that you can order.

http://www.lejonklou.com/products/tundra/Version 2.0A Okay, thanks. I've missed that bit of info completely. This seems to have come in very quietly. First I've heard of it too.

Re: Speaker cable question
There's no such thing as "old K200" unless people manually split K400. K600 went out of production a while ago, so it's easier to get three lengths of K400 and split one to use as the extra pair if you need three channels. I'm not sure I see any benefit in choosing to split you K400 such that you en...

Re: Speaker cable question
Consensus on here is that new K200 is not as good as the old "K200" made from half of a K400. I would expect that a K600 would beat 3xK200 on that basis.

Re: KDSM Renew
I can recommend the RKDSM, Tundra and 242s combo. I've just switched from a Renew KDS/1 and Exotik/Dyn combination feeding my own Tundra and 242s to a Renew KDSM (thanks to another seller on here) and it sounds great!

Re: The New Lejonklou Streamer
A couple of thoughts from me on those points, some of which are the opposite of Don's views (sorry!) : 1 - I agree that this would be useful to some, and that a Lejonklou Streamer + Tundra combo might well be more tuneful than a Streamer + inferior preamp + Tundra combo. However, I wouldn't compromi...

Very nice setup there. If you upgrade the amplification at some point it will really release a lot more from those sources and speakers.

No impact on your NAS or DS from playing other sources through Airplay or Songcast. I love having the option, and would rather that my kids, wife and visitors are able to enjoy the system than have me hide it away with only my choice in music able to play on it! If anything, I want to keep some of m...

Interesting. I wonder if it's the Sneaky or the 104s which are the limiting factor there.Charlie1 wrote: I have noticed the SDS sounds slightly distorted at 70. In fact below 65 is best. I never played music that loud in the study cos it's such a tiny room.

Re: DS firmware - what is the lastest on the most musical one?
As the release notes for 35 say:
Looks like it's only a concern if you have Exakt outputs on your device, so fine for anyone with a Renew, for instance.Fixed problem where certain DS devices with Exakt outputs would not boot with Davaar 34

Re: DS firmware - what is the lastest on the most musical one?
Just be a little bit wary of 34. The reason it was withdrawn was that one or two people managed to completely "brick" their DS/DSM when applying it. I don't know which model and what specific circumstances applied when it was being updated, but I just thought I'd mention it...

Can't say that I have a spare small piece, but I have a pair of K400 which are not in use at the moment which I could cut down a bit if no-one else is able to help. Let me know if no-one else is forthcoming with spare cable.
