The onkyo bundles you have found are fairly rare in that they are speaker combinations which have a proper receiver. Many of these such units (albeit a lot lower price) dont have proper receivers and for example will only have 1 or 2 HDMI inputs if you are lucky. For your budget I think it will...

For your mp3 files I have a couple of suggestions. 1) Most receivers (Yamaha and Onkyo certenly and probably many others) have their own ipod docks. These read the audio off an ipod digitally which is better than most ipod dock adapters which use analogue connections and hugely better quality...

Its difficult to answer your question as there are so may ways of doing things. Some people will think a £200 setup sounds fine while others will swear that a £2000 setup sounds considerably better. Either way a good receiver is the first step. More expensive ones can have additional features...

Yes it could be the idle control valve. Its a motor controlled flap which adjusts the airflow to maintain the idle speed. Often the symptom when they fail is the idle speed dropping and then picking up again when the anti-stall kicks in. My experience with them was with the 98 3 series so it...

No idea about the layout inside your boiler but in mine I have had the automatic air vent leak in the past. It was dripping down and collecting on a plate next to the burner chamber so got evaporated off when the boiler came on. Only noticed it when it got worse enough to leave a small pool of...

What files do you have on the DVD? You should see a VIDEO_TS folder and then lots of files within it. If you dont have that then its not a proper video DVD so all the computer is doing is playing the files of a data disc which a lot of DVD players wont do. You need to make sure its properly...

Yes its good stuff but if its a through plated hole without much gap around the leads of the component it cant draw the solder out.

I find the only ones which really work well are the commercial ones but they are way more expensive. http://uk.rs-online.com/web/3438600.html and you then still need to buy a suitable compressor.

Whichever you go for the cheapest was is to normally get all your services from them. So who do you use for internet and telephone? With virgin you pay about £33/pm for the basic package which is the telephone, tv and internet. I have had Sky for the last few years but have just switched...

I have the same boiler and I have just taken a look where the heat exchange is. It is behind the control panel (which unscrews and folds down) so you should be ok. Most importantly it doesnt look like any gas pipes need to be touched which would make in an immediate non diy job in my opinion...

Does the aerial cable have a metal film in addition to the braided screen? If it does then it is at least relatively good and probably ok. If you want to get some new cable get something like WF100 which is just good cable used for satellite.

There is no simple answer. It depends on what channels your freeview is transmitted on. A yagi aerial gives a much stronger signal if it matches the channels your freeview uses. If you want a universal aerial then get a log-periodic as it will be more directional and so less likely to pickup...

Do you know what cells the A18 uses? Are they normal AA or some tagged variety?

I have one of these for my electric 'chainsaw on a pole'. I am sure at one point I found a site detailing how to take the pack apart and change the batteries but I cant find it anymore. Mine is now basically dead and needs to be charged immediately before use otherwise it self discharges in a...

So you think all sealed black boxes are televisions. Never heard of an external power supply :shock: Yes I do know what I am talking about as I have an electronics degree and have repaired many power supplies. Your last post is fair enough about the built in diagnostics but you have...

You should be able to just copy across the contents of the backup favourites folder into the one on your rebuilt computer.

There is a video here http://www.espares.co.uk/part/pressure-washers/karcher/k5.91m/p/1315/877/16/1373051/538245/replacement-high-pressure.html

What sort of power supply is it? Is it just a sealed black plastic box or can you get to the circuit board inside. Maybe it can be repaired.

If the problem was the speed of the USB stick then it would have to be very poor. Taking the example of a 900MB file and a hour and a half film that would require a speed of 167KB/s. No 4GB memory would ever be that slow. How long does it take to copy the file onto the memory stick? Write...
