You have DM @RobYob

Thanks Mik.

I think the overall clarity of the Logitechs that have popped is good but not great and sometimes the bass has been overbearing (though obviously there's a volume knob for that) so an increase in clarity versus a bit of a drop in bass isn't a bad thing. Seems to me looking at a lot of ...

Friends, you were all very helpful while trying to put together a hi-fi system from my Dad's gear, so asking for your thoughts again.

At my desk in my (home) office I have been running a Logitech Z906 (that's the Dolby THX certified one) setup without the rear speakers, so what's that 3.1? Left ...

Thanks Mik

I think I've found someone (who looks pretty reliable) who will ship them from Hong Kong... Just to play the game now of 'will they arrive or did I get scammed?'

Nothing...

Except they're one of the sites with a fair few scammy/shitty ratings.

Friends, I need to buy two of these: https://www.noctua.at/en/products/nf-a20-pwm-chromax-black-swap *

*Note there's a HS, 1200rpm version, I want the normal, non-HS 800rpm version as per the link.

Helpfully the NZ imported recently stopped bringing them in. I ordered some from Amazon US who took ...

I can't begin to tell you how difficult that is.

Sorry to hear that Mik - Rest easy Luna, you were the goodest dog (they all are).

I really thought that was going to end with "And with a dab of oppo they were away..."

Thanks, now I want one.

It's for this exact reason I was both sad and very relieved I couldn't attend a recent demo day for the new Levo 4 Specialized bikes due to still recovering from surgery.

I can almost guarantee I couldn't resist.

I always kinda imagined greyhounds would weigh like 2kg. In a coat.

So much of a yes, I'm even trying (ish) to cook them like this myself at home. Obviously made much easier in Japan given you can eat raw eggs there safely.

Given what's happening in America, I think that's exactly what people do want. Everywhere. Especially if you're Christian and right leaning...

I’ve just upgraded mine, i now have a 220mm front disc 200mm rear with 4 pot calipers (Magura MT7)


I've been looking at those for a little while myself, just very hard to get here it seems and not much in the way of spares etc. Been wondering whether the new Mavens would do the same thing ...

That looks cool AF.

Possibly ftao of @KiwiDave - another track that I'm loving the drums on. (Although from a production perspective I'd like the cymbals and hi-hat to be a smidge crisper / out front). Wads of energy and some sneaky snare and kick drum hits where I wasn't expecting them. 8-)

Really deep bass tones ...

Bathurst (on GT7) is a great circuit - you're right in that adding what seems like 1% of commitment or smoothness over the top somehow seems to unlock so much time. Learning to get up into that window to be brushing every turn with your wing mirrors is super hard and rewarding. I'd very much like to ...

We were on tsunami watch late last night. The house is 9m from the sea and about 3m up. Everyone in NZ told to get off the water, take large vessels out to sea away from moorings etc. but no one told to evacuate and that no risk to coastal properties. They were right, though we have a drain that ...

You're Scottish, you started drinking with whisky in your bottle as a baby and never stopped.
