    Thanks for the suggestions guys, but I pulled the trigger on the Astrix frame linked there last week - couldn't say no to $229 posted for a brand new frame! (even if it is almost a decade old now..)

    Curnutt shock servicing?

    G'day all, I've got a couple of Curnutt XTD shocks from the 2:1 mono frames, however they're not working as they should be. Is there anywhere in Aus that would be capable of servicing these particular shocks? I had a quick look on the Foes website and they don't list any Aus based...

    Attorney-General George Brandis set to crack down on illegal downloading

    Sorry mate, but that's just not true. Despite only having 2 sample points to work with, a properly designed DAC will be able to recreate the waveform perfectly, all the way up to 22.05Khz (or whatever half the sampling frequency is). If you don't believe me, have a read up on the...

    Home Made Speaker Project

    It's kind of hard to quantify exactly, but to me, reference means gear that is designed to reproduce a signal as closely to the original without any distortion or colouration. Obviously it's impossible to achieve exactly this, but with the right gear (not necessarily the most expensive) you can...

    Home Made Speaker Project

    Couple of questions; Firstly, how big are you willing to build these? Secondly, what kind of budget are you working on? Third, what's the main use going to be? Mixing moniters? Reference HiFi system?

    Disney buying the Star Wars empire!

    Certainly they're not at the same level as movies like Avatar, but again I come back to my point of effects not being the core of a film. I'd go so far as to say that the original trilogy was more involving than most of the current CGI fests of this era. Even by todays standards, they're...

    Disney buying the Star Wars empire!

    Considering the first one was released in 1977, the special effects (not CGI) were pretty groundbreaking. For me the special effects aren't what makes a film, it's the characters and the plot, and in the prequels those two elements were sorely lacking. Sure there were plenty of bright colours...

    Disney buying the Star Wars empire!

    Re do the old ones? The original trilogy? You must be mad. The original trilogy was the best thing about star wars. The prequels were a complete dissapointment, and a shining example of why George Lucas shouldn't be given complete control over a movie. I can only hope that any new films made...
