That’s probably a good height to aim for. Getting them off the ground certainly helps with bass quality too.

Get them on stands. It makes a huge difference. Nowt fancy needed

If you start up spotify on the tablet plugged into the hifi, then start it up on your phone, it should give you the option to keep listening on the tablet or switch to the phone. leave it on the...
nice amp...
Did you only stop listening to the schitt because you had the (preferable to you) lampi available? If the lampi wasn’t there would you be able to live with the schitt?
He’ll have to buy stands for the ATCs which makes that an even more expensive system. I’d say forget the Cambridge and go for a pi or a chromecast and get some bigger speakers - if he likes reggae...
transfer will be fairly slow as its lots of small(ish) files. It'll be even slower if you only have USB2 on the laptop - look for a blue USB port which should be USB3 and get a USB3 stick in that...
Diapasons are epic! I heard a pair in a fairly small demo room at SoundAdvice in Loughborough.... awe inspiring, before you got to the (in 1994 ish) £18K/pair price tag :)
If you ripped them as Apple Lossless the first time around, copy them to the new machine and either stick with iTunes, or try Plex or any number of free players. A 500GB library will however be a...
This is so true. Just flew to Berlin for work and the whole 100ml rubbish caught me out as I expected to check my bag in but didn’t need to, so had to bin my shaving gel. It smacks much more of...
I suspect you can make an amp that matches speakers better sound like an amp that doesn’t using EQ, but you won’t fix a mismatch with EQ in my view.
As the owner of a pair of Mullard 5-20s with ‘middling’ transformers I’d love to try one of your amps... unfortunately I would then have to give it back.... so I’ll stick with mine for now. They do...
It’s not just hifi, hi-end anything is getting more and more obscene, but when your customers have more money than some countries, and expensive=better then you just charge what you want and make it...
Cheers Geoff. They had foam surrounds when I got them but when we went to put the drivers back in the cabs after replacing the wadding and the x-overs, all the foam fell out :(
Here’s the only...
315s? 12” hpds in Cheviot cabs. they have the hard (is it not rubber?) surrounds in place of the perished foam
I had my 12” hpd s done a few years ago. New cones and the rubber surrounds.

What’s the power draw? If you can find a big enough power bank thing, put that between the wall wart and the pi. Just done it with my chromecast and it seems to have improved things
These connected gizmos are a huge security hole. I'm assuming it works via your main wifi router, if so, you should do some research for how to keep it isolated from everything else as they tend to...
Perhaps hifi, like cars and many other consumer products, is simply too good to be interesting now, so the reviews look at more and more esoteric stuff simply because you’d end up with a magazine...
They are not the fastest, and stay away from phone support, use the chat instead (you can get it on your phone since you'll probably need it when your internet has died) but they tend to be cheaper...
Fair enough. I guess there's a bit of jealousy on my part since 5 digit bits of hifi are somewhat un-affordable, but they are also a bit unpalatable to me. I did note he hadn't bought the...
I thought Art Dudley came across really well. A bit odd, but straightforward.
Fremer? Everything that's wrong with HiFi in a video for me. He has 'the best tone arm he's ever heard', but...

not sure where you can buy them in the UK. About £130 I think.
Re Alan's post - one option with multi...
I doubt two alps would do much if anything. You'd be better buying a stepped attenuator. No idea if the Vale things on ebay are any good, but a DACT switch is miles better than an Alps blue - I...
With passives its almost always earthing. Defo check you're getting good connections with your cables. Also, if it's been moved around a lot and/or plugged/unplugged, might be worth checking inside...
