Forum rules
Note that Tir Na HiFi does not take any responsibility for transactions arranged or carried out here. It is up to the seller and buyer to check each other out! Please be sensible folks, and if there is something you think is wrong, let a mod know, OK?

a) like any forum, the success of tirnahifi is entirely dependent on discussion. All members are encouraged to participate in discussion of music, hifi, etc.
b) tirnahifi is not designed to be, nor intended to be, a marketplace. Any member who uses the site merely for selling will be looked on suspiciously.
c) those members who choose to sell on the site should be aware that the mods do keep an eye on the stuff for sale, plus the demeanour of the seller. Sometimes we may lock/delete/ban a sales thread on this basis.
d) honesty is paramount in all selling transactions. Commercial sellers who label themselves as such are accepted at the discretion of the moderating team.
e) All ads have to include information about age, price, provenance, etc.

OH GAWD, don't I know it!Fran wrote:If you have a soft-dome tweeter this is easily enough done - metal dome or concave as some of the newer ones are, its early impossible. A dent might not make that much audible difference - if its not so badly damaged that something inside is damaged then you might just have a different/worse dispersion pattern. You might pick that up as soundstage difference.....
Si - one for you: a 2 year old, a pencil and a nice set of speakers should not be left on their own together at any time.,......

Good to know Sean,I used to have quad 303 paired with tannoy hpd315+stax vintage earphones back in my teenage days,it was the best match ever for my ears,but it didnt look "cool"enough and didnt have that real slam to play http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tACyvIZR ... re=related to my friends, girls , etc.so it was *upgraded*to some modern, good looking stuff as big bad black demon,sorry denon 150wpc or pioneer pro logic receiver with many flashing lights on the screen, elegant eltax speakers..tough teenage kicks time..Seán wrote:KEFs and Quads were a marriage made in heaven.
