Tír Na HiFi

Thanks fran. I guess that answers that.

Does anyone know if its safe/possible to replace a standard duplex UK/IE wall socket like this with a Schuko dual wall socket (thinking something like a Furutech FP-SWS-D(R)). Basically my power cables are all Schuko and this would just make like a lot easier. I'd have to get an electrician to fit it.

One additional caveat: if you are looking to use them in a tv room where the other half is watching to the TV, you may want to consider closed phones. In which case second hand Mr Speakers Mad dog or alpha dog may not be a bad choice for you. This is not for your benefit but hers!

Likewise, I'm always in the market for CDs. Especially Jazz and classic rock.

I've got an excellent condition Rega Apollo thats surplus to requirements at the moment that I'm going to put up for sale shortly. Bought it on Adverts a few months ago to compare it against another player I own and decided to keep my other transport. Original ad that I bought it on here: http://www...

Thanks Aleg. That's useful to clear up.

For CD rips weekdays the general consensus for rip file format?WAV, FLAC,AIFF..? My guess ill end up using JRiver to rip.

I'm in a similar situation. I have a decent red book selection but have decided to go digital. My current setup is cd transport to dac to headphone amps to headphones. Im looking at getting a new laptop for dedicated audio use: 1. to use as a digital source (Im guessing USB into Dac) 2. start rippin...
