    Gary Moore dies at 58

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-12377862   I'm shocked. I only saw him once in concert (right close up) and I'm so glad I did. It was worth it just for the guitar break in Parisienne Walkway. He was amazing to watch, and although I was never a huge fan of Thin Lizzy, I enjoyed...

    I can't post in the FS forum because it won't accept GBP??

    Just tried to list my FX700's but when it came to entering the amount, it kept giving me the message that £170 was not a valid amount. When I entered a decimal point, £170.00, it accepted the post but changed the amound into USD??? I've closed the sale until this is fixed.   Mods, can...

    UPDATE!! Really disappointed with Creek Audio service guys and Creek in general. Plus, I'm £150 out of pocket thanks to them :(

    Okay, don't read this unless a) you're very bored, b) have lots of time, or c) know anything about the insides of an amp! You've been warned   So I've had a Creek Destiny amp for just less than 2 years. This is the sorry saga of the last 4 weeks with the Creek Audio service guys, and Mike...

    iPod Touch OS 4 killing anyone else's battery?

    My Touch 2G battery has been draining really fast over the last week or so. On a full charge In standby, I'm getting less than 24 hours before the red battery warning, when before, I could get about a week out of it. So I booked in at the Crapple store for a repair (since it's still under...

    Anyone watching the Mahut / Isner match at Wimbledon? Longest match in history!

    I can't take my eyes off it. They're at 49 games each in the final set. Every single game in this set has gone with serve and it doesn't look like changing any time soon.   They've been playing almost nine hours so far. And neither of them look like flagging yet. But the scoreboard has...

    CONFIRMATION: JVC HA-FX1000 IS the JVC Victor HP-FX500.

    So I just spoke to someone called Richard at JVC in the UK to find out if the JVC HA-FX1000 is in fact, the re-branded JVC Victor HP-FX500, and he confirmed without a doubt that it is. He said the FX1000 is exactly the same model, but was renamed specifically for the official UK release. So...

    This thread is for posting any defects with the Phonak Audeo (PFE) UPDATE 9th MAY When this thread was started, it was assumed that the cracking issue affected only the black pairs. However, this seemed to be because the majority of owners bought the black PFE. Owners of white pairs...

    John Travolta's son dies at 16

    Apparently, Jett Travolta died after he hit his head in the bathtub and had a seizure. I can't imagine what his parents must be going through. They must be absolutely heartbroken. At 16, he'd barely even begun his life, and now it's over. John Travolta's son dead at age 16 after seizure -...

    Sennheiser IE 7... 24 hours on

    Okay, so I’ve been listening to the IE7 with a Sony NWZ-A829, S639, Zune 80 and iPod Touch 2G. I will update this when I’ve put more listening time in, but at the moment, this is all I have, a quick comparison with the TF10. Comfort and Fit: The IE7 wins that award. I’ve never had problems...

    A quick warning for anyone in the UK with a credit card. I just discovered 2 x £30 transactions on my Visa card from O2, allegedly for a 'top up'. As 'Orange' has always been my phone provider and I've never used O2 before, (except 2 months ago when I bought some concert tickets), an alarm...

    Watch this "Christian The Lion" video clip. It's just beautiful

    A friend sent me this link, saying she was completey overwhelmed by the video. All she said was that it was about the reunion of a fully-grown lion, and the people who had cared for him when he was a cub. I wasn't at all prepared for what I saw... it's incredibly heartwarming and touching...

    Does anyone here have the Creek Destiny Integrated Amplifier?

    Yes, I used the search function - but only got results about the Destiny CD player vs. Arcam CD36. I just bought this amp to go with my new Quad 99 CDP-2, but I can’t find any user reviews about the Destiny. I read the Stereophile and Absolute Sound reviews (both very positive), but while...

    YAY!!! I won a pair of tickets for Canada Day in Trafalgar Square! But who are the acts??

    I never win anything and tickets weren't available to buy so I had to go into a lottery of thousands of people expecting nothing back. And then today my tickets dropped through the door! I could have kissed the postman except that today he was a woman and I just didn't feel comfortable about it...

    Any other Sony NWZ-A829 issues apart from mine?

    Well, I've just put in for a replacement unit from Amazon due to the following 3 issues, and I wondered if anyone else has experienced the same things or if it's just the way it is! 1. The back of the player gets really warm (laptop warm!!) after it's been on for a while. (I didn't have that...

    cnet UK claim Denon C751 is 'better' than the C700 - but it's the same model!!

    I was amazed to read that cnet and trustedreviews described the Denon AH-C751 as an upgraded model to the C700 when in actual fact they are the SAME earphone! Even stranger, cnet had already reviewed the C700 and were comparing the C751s to those. They said: Quote: The most notable...
