Hiya Paul, Thanks a lot for the reply and the links you provided, I will certainly have a look later. However, you could be on the right track with what you said about the gap between the bulb and shade, or it could be just coincidence, but I checked the gap between the bulb...

Just bring your own lightbulb ! :lol:

Thanks Breezer, any opinion is most welcome, and thinking about it now your opinion seems viable. On the subject of the bulbs I placed in the holdes, they are "philips" bulbs,which I thought would be quite reliable, the only other thing or things it could be then is the vibrating factor of the...

I read somewhere that over power is a major cause of blowing light bulbs. For example, only a couple of weeks ago I replaced the light bulbs in our light/ fan fitting in our living room. One day last week after switching the light on...pop goes another light bulb, is this down to poor quality...

Hi Biggaz, I agree with what you say about cables, the thicker they are the better sound wise, also, twisted or braided cables have been shown to have an effect in cancelling out rfi. However, having read articles in which tests have been carried out using standard consumer...

Another tweak as hifi buffs call it is cryogenic freezing. Where cables are cryogenically frozen for a period of time then returned to their normal temperature before being used, people who have done this comment on the vast sounstage improvements. Also, wait for it, whole hifi pieces are put...

Good to hear about your experience, so in your opinion you noticed a difference? I always say that the cheap interconnects you are given in the box with your cd player should be consigned to the bin, or used to thread your shoes, many years ago I had a similar experience to you. I purchased a...

A lot of research into using the standard sockets already in place, and fitting a consumer unit in parallel to the existing one has been carried out by respected people, some with nothing to gain financially. Using a clean socket adaptor will not go the whole way, there has to be things in...

How can you disagree unless you have tested the subject? A bit like me saying I disagree that coffee is tasty without ever sampling it. Bill

Good point about the supplier side of things, I read an article a while ago which went into this in detail, about noise polution on mains. I have experienced many speaker cables, interconnects in the time I have been interested in hi fi, and I can say that they do make a difference. They will...

Thankyou for the feedback, I presently have an 8 way power block, which retails for £350.00, won it in a draw. I currently have this connected to a double switchless mk socket, all my gear is then plugged into the block. It is felt that giving the system its own consumer unit ran in paralel to...

Hi all, I am looking to have a dedicated mains ring installed for my expensive hifi system, using its own consumer unit in parallel to the existing unit, I am told this is preferable than using an existing way from the existing consumer unit. I would then only need one single socket fitted in...
