You audiophiles are a breed of your own it sure seems like it :P I am sure hubby would do something similar to what you have - if he didn't have so many kids ;-) To him picture and sound quality have to be perfect well i dont have kids .... should explain why i did it :wink: and theres no reason no...

mmm, 4k sounds a bit more sane. I saw stuff priced at over 20k the other day :shock: speakers? ..... many cost over R20k - the ones i pictured ie the Ikon 7's retailed at R20k when they were in the range (even though thats not what i paid for them through my contacts during the importer clearance :...

What amp is that btw? (forgive me if you told me - I am not good at concentrating) i have a denon PMA2000AE stereo amplifier and a Denon DCD2000AE CD player and those are Dali Ikon 7 speakers these are also connected to the AV receiver via pre-outs so they work as the fronts for the main home cinem...

@Naughty - believe me - I won't. :lol: For interest sake - what else won't you play on it? Oh - and I have a nice big hammer should you ever need it. ;-) i listen to many genre's of music .... almost anything actually - but nowadays mostly smooth Jazz (as opposed to Jazz) and i definitely do not go...

I don't like Country i would rather take a hammer to my audio system than subject it to country music :P and at the amounts i have spent on said audio system theres 5 chances of me having a hammer anywhere near it ergo the same chances of me playing country music on it ... those chances in no parti...

Oh come on - you have to recognise genius, even if you don't understand it. i wouldnt call it genius ..... and i cant type in what i really would call it cos that would definitely be censored on here ..... either way i checked that track you linked as well as that bangarang stuff and it just sounds...

I was referring to the latter- my car needs sound deadening- no question. I've heard a lot of people say with dynamat you're just paying for a name. I'm not knocking the stuff- I have no idea or personal experience, which is why I'm asking- just trying to make sense of it all. well yeah .... but so...

wez, are you going to add sound deadening? Naughty, opinions on these? opinions on whether you need sound deadening or which brands are decent to buy? in terms of the need for it - yes it is a good thing because a car has too many things that prevent it from allowing your sound to be great ie wind ...

The one thing I am confused about is enclosures for the woofers (the ones on the split systems) none of the split systems I have seen have all the specs for creating an enclosure like with the subs (Qes,Qts,FS etc). Surely the frequency range could be boosted by enclosing the smaller woofers? the w...

haha i was waiting for someone to say naughty will know sadly i dont know any Hertz dealers in KZN. When i wanted the Hertz stuff that i got, i had to get it from Razeen at Sounds Limited in Boksburg (they also sell stuff online too) - His courier charges were minimal - and really besides for those...

Beatrice Street Ghettoville!!! Is there nowhere else you can go in Durbs? Beatrice street is a giant bus rank... yeah there are other more popular places - but why pay the inflated amount that those other places will charge you because of their prettier location :wink: I hear there are some places ...

our ears convert it back to analogue so whats the point. well its not our ears that do the conversion - if we had to listen to the actual digital output it would sound like pink noise (or even white noise) so there is an electronic Digital to analog converter in the loop on all digital playback equ...

Altho I will say will all those lights, fans and add-ons it's easy tell a charou built it LOL - though in my defence i will say if you look at carbonite or other local modding sites you will see that all the lights, fans and add ons are becoming a universal thing - well either that or its only char...

not gonna re-type everything ...... my rig can be seen here

I know I don't look good in photos

come now, i dont know why you are complaining ..... you still havent seen me in a photo yet - that will probably make you feel better about yourself

now i can see why the guys are complaining about the flash ...... thats a huge camera with a massive flash

it looks like that flash could probably reboot the sun at night

Mmmm but then Anky would post the pic of me

come now Anakha56 you are letting us down now ..... i was patiently waiting for you to retaliate so wheres that infamous pic

Unfortunately, I don't know enough about recording HD content from PVR devices (in fact, I have no knowledge of this at all!) to be able to give you a useful answer to that question. There are folks around here that I believe are knowledgeable regarding this kind of thing (naughty comes to mind), s...

seriously boring and lacking extra features. if by boring you mean "not able to give you a single problem while doing everything asked of it" then i want all my PC parts to be seriously boring :wink: - and if extra features land up being one extra thing that you cannot use then why would ...

in terms of motherboards - i like Asus and Gigabyte BUT if i was building a system that needed stability first and foremost then i would go with the Intel motherboard 100 times out of 100 the asus just needs more work and messing around to get perfectly stable - while the intel i tried recently was ...

Build your own pc thats the comparatively expensive way out i bought an HP Proliant microserver in a group buy at R899 - upgraded the ram to 4gigs for 200bucks and added a graphics card (Sapphire radeon HD6450) for R500 and now all i need to spend on is the harddrives that im adding to it i have a ...

quick question ... what case do you have the system in now?

I also checked out the Asrock Z77 Extreme 6. Should I consider it over the ASUS P8Z77-V PRO? Any advice on a cooler to use on the i5 3570K? to be honest that Asrock board looks terrific but looks alone is not a good enough reason - there are a few other plus points to the board for me ie it uses a ...

well if its any consolation im sure you are having a great time with the CPU that you have - so dont worry about whats coming up and just worry about enjoying what you have

And perhaps games in the future will make use of the differences.... So - had my laptop a better GFX card and drivers...... oooh I tremble at the thought ;-) and by then you should be ready to upgrade :lol: intel says that the replacement for ivy bridge is due in the first half of next year already...
