As a general rule on road trips, whoever is doing the boring driving chooses the tunes. I would have thought the same applied to ironing - except of course if it involves Abba, for which there can never be any forgiveable excuse.

That heavy duty build quality could also make for a superb bludgeon...
F*@$*^!!!!
George So I'm not the only one that can't blast pink floyd with out getting into fight. I rarely play music with the wife around. Now if Meridian could come up with something Females can't hear but men can that would really be something. Perhaps they could track female pheromones and with DSP technology direct music cancelation waves in her location. I could have her carry a tracker device until you get the pheromones thing working. Also as soon as she speaks, what the male is listening to must be immediately paused. I know, I know you won't get much music in with this feature but's it's required. Low latency is critical too.
- Fiddler (IMHO)
If you think listening to music is fun, try learning an instrument.

Definitely bludgeon-worthy.

I felt Bob was in and out of this one. He gave a better performance in #1.
That composite cabinet is an impressive piece of engineering.

I still can't decide if it's good value or not - at 1500ukp it seems a near bargain, but at say $3000 it seems expensive! I guess after 5 years out here, I still haven't totally adjusted  (Currently sitting in the local Mini dealer waiting for my Oxford built car to be serviced)

My trouble is, I dont see any 2nd hand bargains appearing anytime soon. We await the third part of the Trillogy with a certain excitment. Will Bob feel compelled to make a Prequal? Watch this space. Cheers, Chris
No 18 in the Hall of fame I have simple tastes; I am content to settle for the best: GIK monster bass panels, rear wall. QNAP TVS 471i3. Roon into DSP5200SE via 210/ 218 zone... Explorer 2. Bluesound Pulse 2, Mini & Flex. 596v1, 518, Foxsat HD, Sony BDP, Pioneer 5090, 2 Chromecast's for LRB videos. MS200 to F80 for a Roon zone

Rear-mounted sub-woofer - could it get a little f*rty near the bedroom wall? Was it adjustable?
But I just learnt a lot about barium and sound-deadening from t'internet......
In the spirit of Spinaltap, I would like to confirm that I am not involved in the corrupt theft of a global sport.
