Re: Who knows what about thermal wrapping on houses?
If the spray foam installer doesn't use "cards" there is a danger of lack of air circulation between the roof membrane and the insulation, build up of moisture and then rot. Lots of cases in the UK apparently where spray was just sprayed directly on under the membrane. Installers just use ...

Re: Who knows what about thermal wrapping on houses?
We went for a different option here - solid foam fill in the cavity (ie not beads). Made a huge difference, especially with airtightness.
8500 to do the full job here on this house to give you an idea of cost.
Have you spray foam already done on the attic/eaves?

Re: Has aliexpress stopped using paypal (Feb-2025)?
i think some sellers accept it and others don't so it sort of depends on that.
But maybe with all the global disruption something else is going on?

Re: Chinese catridges
I can't quite remember how many hours I had but I do remember thinking after a good few evenings listening I thought it settled out with a bit more smoothness in the top end. Maybe that equates to 30 hours or so - I know I'm being vague but I didn't really keep track of it. Exactly which one did you...

Re: Chinese catridges
Hi Hudo, So I went for low ohm coils - I can't find the link now, but I remembered reading somewhere that lower ohm coils tended to have better detail retrieval... that could be BS of course, but I went with it anyway! I think the stiffer and lighter the cantilever the better, so the titanium alloy ...

Re: What's the most overrated/disappointing gear you bought?
I know the dual controls can serve as balance adjustment. Cybot - you are right, it is a pure preference thing and just my own bias! The airtight integrated amps are not dual mono, so why bother separating them into two controls is what pops into my mind. Anyway as I said, its not that it subtracts ...

Re: What's the most overrated/disappointing gear you bought?
My one whinge about the airtights is the two volume knobs. They have excellent build quality etc, but that would drive me mad. In terms of disappointments - not too many in fairness. I remember having an entry level turntable from Project and feeling it was nothing special, and a Rega P3 as well. Ju...
