CD player with memory

Hello, I'm sure that a CD player(S) was advertised in a hi-fi mag some years ago that had an internal hard disk or SSD and was capable of storing loads of CDs at a decent quality digital file size. The only similar type device in my local area is a Brennon unit with speakers included, but it seems a...

Lightning v Hifi

Lightning 1 CD player 0 Power amp/speakers and CD player are usually left powered on and connected to the same mains block. Heavy lightning storm hits the TV aerial and renders it useless. I was out at the time so couldn't unplug. House alarm got zapped. The NVA amps and speakers survived but the CD...

At least 30cm from the wall. @karatestu - The sound produced has always been detailed with the speakers ...

Re: Speaker stands for cube 3s

The Cube 3s are now sitting on stands. Sturdy oak built by customspeakerstands on ebay. Looking good and has freed some space. gone is the bean bag and the chair is now a chair again.

Re: Speaker stands for cube 3s

@ savvypaul - I'm in South Lincs, near Cambs border so too far. Thanks for the offer. @ stemcor1990 - I have looked at oak stands years ago but forgot about them. Now that you've reminded me I may go that route. @antonio66 - The custom design stands are now on my short list. Thanks chaps, food for t...
