Nasty Bass to blow up your sub - BR or HD disc recommendations....
petetherock posted a topic in Home Theatre General Discussion,
With the advent of the lossless formats, plus the new hi def discs, I thought I may be worthwhile to put a list of movies together that are hi def to try and send the subwoofers into free orbit...
** I am not responsible if you bust your subs :) **
Please contribute movies that shook your innards, but also try to include the Time Stamps, or at least the scene that had the booms :)

Record Storage Clearout
Selby Acoustics Hallam posted a topic in Commercial Classifieds,
Occasionally, we have some items available that aren’t quite 100%, a bit scratch and dent, so we’d like to offer the StereoNet community the first opportunity to grab a bargain!
Selby currently have a supply of factory seconds record storage at crazy prices. Flat packed and almost guaranteed not to be perfect, they’re available in black or white at a fraction of the original RRP. As with other specials these are pick-up only from our Hallam store.
This unit will hold around 100 albums and is just $50 (RRP $199). Records not included!
Please don’t hesitate to contact me directly if you’re interested: hamish@selby.com.au-

Standmount Speakers: An Addict's Guide
twwen2 posted a topic in Speakers, Soundbars and Subwoofers,
Standmount Speakers - An Addict's Guide
This thread was inspired and encouraged by Cafad's fantastic "Integrated Amps - An Addict's Guide" thread: http://www.stereo.ne...-addicts-guide/. I thought it would be good to document my similar addiction to standmount speakers. Over the last few years I have owned or heard (in my system) the following models, roughly in order of purchase.
I'll use the following system loosely to rate each speaker according to my own personal preference in my system and room:
1 star = Poor
2 stars = OK
3 stars = Good
4 stars = Very good
5 stars = Excellent
Monitor Audio Bronze BX2 (3 stars)
Usher S-520 (4 stars)
Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 (3 stars)
Dynaudio DM 2/7 (2.5 stars)
Dynaudio Excite X12 (5 stars)
ProAc Studio 110 (3.5 stars)
Monitor Audio Silver RX2 (2 stars)
ATC SCM7 (4.5 stars)
Rega RS1 (3.5 stars)
Dynaudio Focus 110 (4 stars)
KEF LS50 (5 stars)
?
As you can see, I've had quite a few through my system. I've kept some for months; some were moved on in a matter of weeks. I intend to give each speaker it's own post in this thread, where I will outline my thoughts on how they sounded and maybe some additional notes. I'll do my best to include some nice pics, but there are some models that I don't have any good ones of. Just so everyone has the full picture, I will include a section in each post that states what other equipment was used with each speaker. Other components in my system have also changed over time, and this no doubt will have had some say in my experience with each speaker.
Amplifiers have been:
NAD 3020
Redgum Sonofa'GUM
Rega Brio-R
Audiolab 8000Q/MF A3CR
Creek Destiny
Bladelius TYR
​DACs have been:
ASUS Essence STX
Stello DA100
Audio-gd NFB2
PS Audio DLIII
Rega DAC
Audio-gd DAC19-DSP
Audio-gd Reference 5.2
If anyone has any particular requests or follow-up questions, feel free to ask. I'll do my best to make this an informative, interactive experience which benefits everyone.
I thought I'd start with a shot of my system to give people some perspective on the type of listening environment I have. In a word: small. This is a very early photo; I now have the left speaker on the other side of the CD rack. Otherwise the setup placement remains the same, including the chest of drawers which provides it's fair share of early reflections... :lol:-

Tantalising Turntables
2sheds posted a topic in Vinyl and Turntables,
As a follow up to the Titillating Tonearms series, and due to overwhelming demand (Keith_W made a veiled reference in another post), I will now post my follow up - Tanatlising Turntables. Covering the many ways of spinning a 2 cent blob of black vinyl, the turntables or record players, as they were commonly called in Australia will not necessarily be restricted to top end models or current models.
Please feel free to add your favourites to the post with the name, whether it is currently available and any notable comments.
I will start with my particular favourite.
dps 3 (Price around $10,000)
The deceptively simple and elegantly styled dps 3 with Schroeder Model 2 tonearm and outboard (not shown) 3 phase power supply and a plinth made from layered Plexiglas, cork, birch plywood and heavy damping foil on a damped granite base. Make sure you have an alternative as the dps 3 (like all Schroeder tonearms) has a waiting list of around 18 months.
cheers

KEF Announces Updated LSX II Wireless Speakers
StereoNET posted a topic in Australia & New Zealand,
When KEF launched its LSX wireless loudspeaker back in 2018, we suspect KEF's engineers and product managers already knew the follow-up speaker and smaller sibling to its LS50 range of speakers would be hugely popular.View the full article-
