Cheers, this is one of the first times I have played with a soldering iorn and this thing stumped me, I may end up getting some other ones anyway, will try to do it tommrrow. Thanks again Rob

Heres some bumf from the Maplin website about these little buggers A range of metal barrelled, gold-plated phono line plugs with different cable entry diameters to match 5, 6 or 8mm diameter cables. The high quality construction includes a body containing a split collet with a ridged inner...

Hey, I am around half way though a mini project to make an EMU 0404 breakout cable and I am well and truly stuck. I dragged myself down to Maplin (UK Radioshack) and got the bits I needed including 2 RCA plugs, but when I got them home i can't for the life of me work out how they solder onto...

MSR travel mug, perfect for when im at work at a customer take ages, there will always be hot coffee when i get back. Rob

Crouch End, a dim and distant place from the west. I would love to see a bigger London meet, seems to be a few of us on here, could gather a rather nice lot of gear I reckon. Stew, where did you get the Millet from? Just got my first amp (LD II) and im loving the warm tube sound but wouldn't...

Hey All, Well I got a new pair of them!! The official word on the problem is to do with the metal carry case, Hand Held Audio called me today and said to be careful when using it as there is a correct way to do it. There was a picture on here a while back that works well, someone will dig it...

Not just a US problem, mine have cracked in the left driver housing, i never throw mine in my bag and always use the metal case to keep them in. A bit of a pain in the arse as I have to use my crappy sonys for now, but hopefully they will be replaced under warrenty. Rob

Hey Import charges (if you get stung) should be worked out as shown: Item cost + Postage = Total Value Total Value x Customs Duty Rate (3.2% for cables I think) = Customs Duty (Total Value + Customs Duty) x 17.5% = VAT So, the tax is calculated on the cost of the item plus the...

Get a EMU0404 http://www.dolphinmusic.co.uk/page/s...roduct_id/3844 £65 from here, I will post up my thoughts once I get the Micro stack and EMU combo, should be sweet with a pair of HD650s, at the moment my on board bites. Rob

Gordon bennet its a monster, those packing cases say it all. how much does one of these beasts start at? how much can they end at? euro millions here I come... Rob

lol, now i see why you wanted to sell the micro. how much did that baby cost ya? may have to pull the plug on one myself. Rob

Cheers dude, by the looks of the cable I will not need another ic my Turbo mini will surfice until my wallet has recovered (maybe in a few years). Looks like a great setup, thanks again Rob

yeah I have been looking into that and I think I will do it, just waiting to get paid now. Cheers Rob

Hey, do you have a larger pic of the micro stack? that RnB cable looks great with it but my eyes are straining to see it. If you need free hosting try http://imageshack.us/ Cheers Rob

Cheers Dork, I got that far but its finding out the duty rate thats the hard part, I have the 10 digit number you need (I hope its the right one) but they don't list the cost, some electrical goods get 15%, some are free (im hoping for the latter). Im goona have to call the customs people on...

Ed, do you remember how much you paid on top of the total? In the end I guessed I would have to pay it but when I ordered my Turbo dock I didn't pay anything, so I was hoping for the same. Cheers for the help Rob

Caffrey's?? Drink London Pride, brewed in Chiswick and lovely on a cold winters day (like today) Thanks for the advice Rob

Hey all, Does anyone have any experience importing a Micro Stack to the UK? The shipping quote I got from them was fine but I resent paying more on top for the £370 this lot will cost me. Do they mark goods at commercial value or as a low value gift? Is there any way around the VAT, import...

Hey Myo, Can you post a shot without any cables of the rear panel as I can't find a pic of what is on the back. Also what colours does this amp come in?? Cheers Rob

Hey, I am looking at getting a E-MU 0404 but havn't got a clue how to hook it up to my stereo, so can you point me in the direction for the type of cable I need. Also In the future I plan on getting a Micro stack so can you show me what cable I would need to get to go from the E-MU 0404 to...

I have a Agent 18 case on my black 30g 5g and its ok, needs to be cleaned out every so often as alot of crud get under the case, but it does get thrown in the bottom of my bag alot. The case it great and when i dropped it (oh bugger I thought) last week onto concrete it popped off but the...

Getting a new PC together for my room and I need a decent sound card. Can you recommend a sound card for around £50-£100 ($100-$150) with more preference toward the lower end of the budget (this thing is getting expensive). I havn't got a clue what I want but I want an optical out. Apart from...
