Source of 3.5mm gold plated audio connectors ? by Malcolm Stewart
Hi, I'm on the lookout for gold plated mono and stereo audio connectors in the popular 3.5mm diam. fitting. I've noted that the tin plated variety are noisy when used for microphone input purposes. They're common enough on the small head- & earphones, microphones etc. that come with audio gear. What I'm after is the bare connector so that I can make up my own leads. RS Components do some at...

Re-coning speakers by
Dear all, does anyone have experience of/recommendations for re-coning a woofer? One of my 12" drivers on my yamaha NS1000s is seized, and I would hope to have it repaired rather than buy a new one. I am also considering wether to try a used pair of ATC 10" or 15" drives I've seen advertised locally. The sensitivity is about 93 db /w/m and the crossover is at 500Hz. A spare is available for...

Recomendations for upgrading system? by Chris
So I have a Marantz PM 66SE KI amp I picked up a few years back. Mission 700 speakers circa 1980 vintage that the missus says look tatty and wants me to change (Can probably get better anyway for not much money) Philips CD104 CD player which is nearly as old and I have to admit is a bit of a museum piece. So...

Sub crossover/standmounts? by Nath
I'm thinking of replacing my Rel Storm amp panel with one that's got a better crossover filter, and routes frequencies above the knob setting to the phono outputs. So I'm looking at a BK digital switching sub amp panel, or perhaps SVS PCi panel. # Now I've currently got DAC to 8000S, then onto 8000SX, then speakers. Subwoofer connected to speaker level. Speakers are receiving full-range...

pausing streaming audio by Howard Delman
I am looking for a piece of software that will let me pause streaming audio, a la Tivo. For example, I want to be able to pause an internet radio stream while I take a phone call, and then pickup where I left off. During commercials, I could then "fast forward", to get caught up. Does anyone know of any software to do this? All I can find is software that will record a stream, and then let me...

amplifier recomendations (long) by Andy Evans
If they still have the black Elcap capacitors, replace them now I just replaced the Elcaps on my speakers with all polypropylene - big difference and quite plainly more transparent with better treble. Elcaps may get you started, but they aren't where you want to end up. a propos polypropylene caps for speakers, ICW - who make the caps for the top B&W models - have a new range of Clarity Caps...

Speaker recommendations please by Geoff Rait
Yes, I know I should google, but just call me lazy... I'm looking to spend c. 500 GBP / $CDN 1300 / $US 900 on a pair of standmount speakers for a room 15' square(ish) that's semi-open at one end. Currently on the list to audition a B&W CM2 B&W DM 602 (maybe too big for the room?) B&W 705 (over-budget at $CDN 2200, but I'd like to cf. them to the others) JM Labs 806S

Putting his money where his mouth is.... by Andrew Walls
Various journalists in several publications have claimed that their HiFi sounds better when one (or more) "Shatki Stones" are placed somewhere in the vicinity of the components. Conjurer James Randi has offered $1 million to these journalists and the manufacturers, PWB Electronics if they can prove in a double blind test, that "Shatki Stones" and/or other items such as the "Red-X pen" and...

May not be the right group, but I have recorded a wav file onto a RW disk ( creating an audio disk ). However the wav file cannot play on a cd player, its fine on my pc though. Is it due to not being recorded onto a R disk and finalised ?
