Hi folks,

I'm new on this forum so I'm not sure about the place for my post.

I heard a lot of good things about this audiophile forum so I have decided to subscribe.

I have plans to begin my audiophile adventure with a switchbox. Of course you need some parts to make that. I've done some research on the world wide web but there are not many on-line audio shops or normal stores (without an on-line site) in The Netherlands and Belgium. Maybe the belgian and dutch people here can help me and a lot of other audiophile beginners ?

If there are a lot of posts (and a lot of shops), I'll make a summary.

Thank you !!!

And it took them 3 months to repair my mp3player. In fact it took them three months to flash the firmware according to the repair info they send along. I'm not sure if that's all they did. I haven't had the defect yet, hardly used it since I got it back.
I did flash the firmware myself to try to fix it before I send it in but that didn't help.
And they send me an e-mail a couple of weeks ago that they were waiting for parts so the info sheet stating that they just flashed the firmware could be wrong, but it still took them three months.

I had to send it in within a week after I reported the defect or I would loose my warrenty but it took them three weeks to open the package after it arrived at their place.

This place is really fast with answering e-mails and shipping out new stuff, but very slow in repairs.

Where do you get your chassis parts, rca connectors and stuff like that.

I would like to make some cables and I'm looking for supplies.
Any shops to recommend in Belgium?
