Scoop Bins by
DJ TecThreat
"levyte357" wrote in message
...
I recently acquired 4 18" scoop bins at an absurdly cheap price
due to reclaim of storage space.
Unfortunately, they are made of High Density chipboard,
and covered with aged vinly covering, but have good dimensions and are
VERY,
VERY solid.

The Proms and audio quality of Freeview boxes by
Forester
Watching the proms I was frustrated at not being able to listen through
the hi-fi whilst watching an out of sync digital broadcast! I thought it
would be nice to connect the box to the hi-fi, but the sound isn't quite

that the new boxes are MUCH...

noises:

Ofcom want to turn off FM signal by
DAB sounds worse than FM

Cyrus 2 amp early model fault by
Ben Coffman
My early, plastic-cased, Cyrus 2 amp has developed a DC offset in one
speaker. It's about 1.5v.
The Cyrus 2 design does not appear to include output capacitors, so
somewhat ruling that out.
Has anyone else experienced this fault? Does anyone have any thoughts
as to where I should start to look?
Many thanks.

Pioneer DVD DV-565A problems by
Nicolas Hodges
A few months ago I bought a Pioneer DVD player (DV-565A - the all-
formats one) to replace my Sony CDP-750 (1988 vintage) which has become
a bit unreliable tracking the ends of discs. It is multiregion which I
believe means the warranty is between me and the supplier, not Pioneer.
There are quite a lot of problems with the player:

Dynaudio Audience 52SE by
Fleetie
I just got a pair today.
OMFG! They sound so, so, so detailed and revealing in the treble!
I'm in love! Plus I got 50 quid off for no apparent reason.
And these are lower-end Dynaudios! One can only wonder what the
expensive stuff can do!
I have achieved audio contentment! They sound fan-TAS-tic!
