Cheap and cheerful upgrade by Ed Whittaker
Hi, I`m tight on cash and no audiophile so don`t laugh... I`ve had a cheap Samsung mini system for the past 7 years, it claims 2x40Rms and is pretty loud for a smallish room, has been a very good buy. I`m getting a bit fed up of the lack of decent low and high frequencies, muddy low frequencies and general lack of warmth/depth. I`m considering spending the minimum of cash to improve things,...

Goodness! A good review of the Gaincard Amplifier by Jem Raid
I was quite surprised to find this; http://www.stereophile.com/amplificationreviews/120147/index4.html It sums up at the bottom, in case you don't get that far, "In some areas the lack of intermodulation distortion, the superb squarewave performance, the wide bandwidth the 4706 Gaincard offered excellent measured performance. In fact, almost all the measured problems I encountered can be laid at...

The old headphones question. by Andy Hewitt
Hi chaps, Haven't posted here for a while, but here goes. I have checked out Google, and not much help there on this. I have a budget of up to about £70 for some new headphones. I like listening to music in the evenings, so concert levels through speakers are a no-no. I have a very varied taste, anything from Amadeus Mozart to ZZ Top. I've had a search around on the internet for reviews and...

CD player for MP3 by Nick Lockett
I've decided it's time I replaced my Philips CD104 player with something a bit more modern. I'm looking for a player which can also handle MP3 tracks. So far I've only found the Marantz CD7300. Does anyone know of any others? TIA Nick.

Mission Cyrus Amplifier by Roger Matthews
I have a Mission amplifier but have misplaced the instruction book. I cannot recall if it was a Cyrus 1 or a Cyrus 2 and there are not distinguishing marks on the amplifier. Its Serial Number is 201072C (which makes me suspect that it is the Cyrus 2 especially since I normally buy the best system that I can afford and this was the most expensive of the Cyrus range at the time). Can anyone advise...
