Well...... I like 'em a lot. A huge amount. OK, they don't do low, low bass, but to my ears they sound so very coherent and so very right. And there is plenty of bass, it just isn't subterranean. They just snap and attack and present music in a very infectious way. All the initial listening was done...

So then are you poking about with your own cabs trying to find a fault that doesn't exist?

It's not all necessarily "thump thump thump thump" Aye, but that's what folk think is bass. Nice bass, they say. They can't understand that it's their shoddy speaker cabs singing along. What happens if the speakers are reproducing the sound of the bass players' shoddy speaker cabs singing...

Like this you mean ?

Had a very interesting time today. I've had ADSL service for quite some time, only not the fastest in the world, as I live on the outer fringes of my nearest BT exchange. Last week I had a letter through from BT trying to sell me broadband services, and mentioning something about a "Broadband A...

I did wonder why you'd included the tape measure. Did you know that electrons travel (in wires) at about 30mph? The effect of one moving at one end of the wire is instant at the other, but it takes some time for that electron to actually reach the other end. That's what Dad said........ :roll: What...
