Re: Tidal

I can't really comment on any streaming services other than Tidal. When I started with all that computer shenanigans, in recent years, I already had an MQA compatible device, which was an unintended bonus rather than an intentional decision, which influenced my choice more than a little. I'd say &qu...

Re: CDs giving up the ghost

I remembered after writing the OP that we were looking for a way to archive files at work back in the '90s. No blank CD supplier would guarantee their products for anything more than 25 years for that purpose, so we stuck to paper. I can see why now. I have a few LaserDiscs from back in the day that...

Re: Introduce Yourselves

I asked the possibility of a personal meeting, so I think it's time to introduce myself, at least in a nutshell. I'm 46, living in Budapest.

Re: What turntable do you use and why ?

My current main daily runner is a Project Extension 10 with an Ortofon Cadenza Red. Near the other end of the scale is a 25yo (ish) Rega Planar 3 with a Roksan Corus Blac...

CDs giving up the ghost

I've been collecting the wee silver things since they went on sale in the uk. They were touted as indestructible, certainly compared to those wierd and potentially noisy vinyl records or self destructive cassettes. Indestructible? Nah, I now have a few unplayable CDs and others look like a starmap w...
