Re: Phono bake-off
Is it possible to get an invite? I've got a dddac 1794 that I'd like to hear against other dacs, it was well received at my last bake off. Yes, as long as you don't bring any Eurythmics CDs :lol: :lol: (in joke) I've only got the Eurythmics on vinyl, can manage a couple of Annie Lennox CD's though ...

Re: The Audio-Talk Cycling thread.
I did the 'Drakes Trail' ride today. Plymouth to Tavistock and back via route 27. Awethumne. http://i.imgur.com/aDbBz4Y.png The climb up out of Clearbrook is a good lung buster but once you get to the top it don't arf feel like you're riding on the top of The England! http://i.imgur.com/MqbcnWM.jpg...

Re: Audiophool from Sheffield.....
I thought the place ex wammers went when they finally got pissed off with Petfood Pete was The Audio Abattoir. But here is far less clique ridden, less bake-offs though. We need them promoted more - gert on wiv it for us! I pop in there sometimes but the threads so far haven't grabbed my attention....

One other major reason is the fact that they can be easily upgraded, the new d...

Audiophool from Sheffield.....
I have been a member on the 'Wam for a long time but have become fed up with the new direction and dearth of threads and discussions. I've made a lot of friends through bakeoffs and hope to continue that trend in the future on different fora. Most of my kit is diy (Bastanis speakers, Salas phono sta...
