In ear headphones

Fancy getting a set of in ear headphones just for when I'm out walking just listening from Spotify on the phone. I never used to get on with them suffering from ear pain but I suspect that if from using the poor quality 'free' ones. Currently using Sennheiser 5.00 but I'm sending them back as I orde...

Re: Cutting out the Middleman

For my previous job I was doing 20K+ a year of motorways and needed something I was happy to spend a ...

Re: Record player phono cable extension

Would be 7m from TT to phono 1.

Whichever way i do it will be a compromise.
Best bet buy a new house and have a dedicated (wife proof) room.

Re: Record player phono cable extension

Apologies, wasn't very clear. Its cartridge driven going to a nva phono 1 then A80's.

Seems to be a non starter as there is several issues to overcome.

Thanks for the advice. Silver lining is if im relegated to downstairs i have a bit more freedom on what speakers I purchase.
