Re: Cables from the States
The problem with cable companies is that anyone who can solder ends onto a wire is now a cable builder. They often use off the spool wire of some offbeat source, and then cover it in tech-flex, write some stuff about being organic, holistic, and detailed...now you have a cable product. Whether it i...

Re: Effects pedals stuff, might interest guitarists.
...A little research revealed that a particular brand of guitar was wired differently and would need a specially wired cable. Someone at his college had replaced the socket as I understood it. Always fun working with musicians, most are great and one can learn a lot, some know it all (at the age of...

Re: Cables from the States
I know you can find rave review on nearly all hifi products, BUT, I would not have posted this if I didn't think there seemed to be more good mentions for this cable than one might expect. I do hope we are not all into how thick are cables are, go take a look at Crystal Cables to see how wrong you ...

Re: Effects pedals stuff, might interest guitarists.
You've made me look a fool Slinger - not a difficult job. :lol: Hardly. It was my bad for assuming people know what I'm talking about even when most of the time I don't. :lol: I've not tried Ableton but as far as I am concerned you are speaking a language I understand. The pedal issue came up at a ...

Re: Effects pedals stuff, might interest guitarists.
Have you thought of taking up the organ? There seem to be fewer pedals on an organ than you have foot controls.
I am quite used to guitarists turning up with a board full of pedals but I get upset when one of them is noisy but it's my fault.

Re: Forum Problems
The words are English but I can't understand the language.
Sufficient to say that I haven't noticed any problems.

Re: Scratching the acoustic treatment itch
Is that the Randon Soft app Geoff ? No, it is called RTA Audio and it is by New Ball s r o If you search the apps store for RTA there are two versions, a free one with in app purchases and a paid version. For some reason the free version is called RTA Audio Pro but it has fewer frequency bands 1/2 ...

Re: DC Blocker available to try in your system
May I suggest that the reason DC blockers don't always "work" and sometimes removing one is an improvement is that DC really isn't supposed to be on the mains. If it is found by the distribution company they should correct it. So, if you had DC and it is corrected removing a DC blocker mig...

Re: Scratching the acoustic treatment itch
I think that just about every piece of furniture / clutter / bric a brac / coverings in a room help the acoustics. As long as they are not resonant and don't block the line between speakers and ears. Carpets, rugs, wallpaper, curtains, sofas, armchairs, bookshelves, circles from the set of the orig...
