Outstanding Grant :)

I did a music Kickstarter once for a band I quite liked who were a bit niche and hadn't recorded anything in years - I actually promoted it on here, but thankfully no-one took it up except me....

Haha . . . . I've about an inch left of the 18 YO, a very nice dram indeed. I haven't tried the Virgin Oak, so I think I need to change that, thanks for the nudge.

Limited Edition of One
Book by Steven Wilson

Very interesting if you have an interest in Steven's work or Porcupine Tree - a fascinating insight and not like a normal run of the mill...

I'm rather partial to the Deanston 12 YO Grant - now that's a hidden gem bargain IMO, especially with so many whiskies I normally like (Springbank) being hard to come by and ridiculously expensive. ...

Not logged in for an age, but just wanted to send my best Dave.

I'm still in Wales and still planning on moving (one day) near to your neck of the woods - so hopefully one day I can pop in to say...

Welcome to the world of audiophile HiFi!

However, your statement is slightly flawed, what other DAC would this seer be advising on? What I can tell you is there is a difference when you play music...

Hi Richard, it's an impressive bit of kit for the price and the Node 2i is definitely a step up from the 2, not just the song capacity. My mate has his 2i currently hooked up to a Roksan Blak and it...

If you mean can you plug a USB HDD directly into the Bluesound Node and play music files directly from that hard drive, then yes it will be fine and is designed to do this as one of it's playback...

I'm going to leave you on the loony train Marco, as I'm getting off at the next stop!

You've lost the plot fella.


From the bunker
11 days self-isolation.

Tis' a thing of beauty . . . one day, but more worrisome things to deal with for now.

Ha, I resemble that remark :lol:

Not so tidy right now though Marco - whilst in self-isolation I've pulled everything out of everywhere and having a good sort out for the charity shop and tip - so...

Good song Grant.

This one I reckon Marco, Sandy (Denny) wrote this as a 19 year old, quite a song I think. And my lights have already stayed on longer than hers!

I guess that's the difference Marco, one's own personal perspective, which puts me in what could be considered an 'at risk' category.

If I was a 30 year old scrum-half in rude health I'd probably...

I saw this ad far too late Shaun, very nice speakers and good to see they have found a home :)

Yes Martin, which is why the word potential is there.

With what we now know about it's highly infectious nature and higher than flu fatality rate, I'd like to think we will respond accordingly...

Probably the only place in the world capable of doing this.

Ordinarily I would agree with that Ali, but as yet we don't have any natural immunity to Covid-19, or a vaccine and as pointed out that's a very low number of deaths on a global scale. This has the...

I agree in principle André, which is why is still buy the CDs I really want to own, but I'll take living in a mansion full of all the music I could ever possibly want for a tenner a month, over not...

Well you'll get that for sure Marco.

I like it's total bizarreness in places, like Monty Python from an alternate universe. For a film made in the early 60s it's ahead of it's time and I find it...

It's an outstanding film Marco and along with La Dolce Vita, arguably Fellini's best two films.

However, knowing what you normally like I wouldn't bet more than 50p that you'll enjoy it - but you...

Never had any trouble with that André, Spotify itself has pretty much worked flawlessly for the 10+ years I've been using it, streaming from both my Music Server or phone.

Did you have a Premium...

I had the Yamaha WXC-50 and reviewed it here https://theartofsound.net/forum/showthread.php?61574-Yamaha-WXC-50-Streaming-Pre-Amplifier&p=1038011#post1038011
