Well…it was my first post here! And this is my second post…and yes he is doing stellar work keeping the pink fish flapping! I sometimes swim in that pond but recently a kind sole asked about spdif converters and was told they all the same and buy the cheapest! I have a few spdif converters and can attest that this is not the case and thought I would come here amongst the enlightened! ( not bad I think for a second post? )

Oh quite serious…there is a difference between my ipad and chrome book too…I can’t say one is better just different…I’m using my little kit at the moment ( bantam stealth, project dac using a Topping d10 as spdif converter into icon audio mpv 6 speakers…( maplin regulated power supply to bantam ) and a schiit passive pre amp so it bloody irritates me that on the other forum its stated as if its a fact that all spdif converters are the same! Grrrr…I use on my main kit a schiit eitr and it’s so good ( I can use my cyrus dac x + for streaming using the eitr ) I have a MF v link2 as well which is pretty good too…

MF and Cyrus in the same post, definitely a troll.

Shame there’s no Usher there as well.

No he isn’t, he’s doing lickspittle, pompous, delusions-of-adequacy, fuckwitted “work” - same as always.

The thing with trolling is you have to ease it gently - lube the forum up first with a how-do and bit of banter about the footy or summat - not just bang it in dry with a triple-baited hook like that!

But I just got a nice greeting message from the system! It seems I have already advanced myself…just two posts? Things are going well…so far
I quite like it here…on the other forums if you say boo to a goose you got warned by a mod…I got a black mark against me at the wam…and it seems I have to acknowledge this before I can post again…hell will freeze over first…the warm welcome here is appreciated…I shall mooch about this forum and see if I can contribute at all…and I promise not to flounce about…

All this hi-fi chatter you are doing on PFM and on here is attracting a rowdy crowd Sodders. Please desist.

It is getting to the stage that our post-Hi Fi not Audio Forum is being polluted by Hi Fi and Audio. The end dayz of cable threadz are nigh! We’re doooomed…

Some Usher for you…

Slight update on the sound system
15" kick bass progress.
I’ve not seen them in the flesh yet.

That looks good, is this for your system at home?

No, bloke I work with.
He is making an old school reggae sound system.
He has wanted to make one for years.
That unit is for kick bass, 2 x 15"eminence units.

Think it’s going to be around 8ft or taller once done.

I’ve been using the Leak at home for a couple of weeks now. It’s a lovely sounding thing. Quiet enough with my horn speakers and with the input sensitivity made sensible, quite usable with even a fairly high gain line stage like the L300. I could quite happily live with it permanently.
