soundproof: I may be totally missing the point here, but I really don't get this "they should have built in Freeview/DVB" and whatever. As Daniel points out above, in most markets people are getting their tv-signals from a variety of providers, with an increasing portion of the same offering decoders/tuners for you to be able to access

My advise to Mobe (given his track record) is - get someone else to do it for you!

Agree - Oxygene is OK but I find I skip tracks, Equinoxe is a much, much better album and, for jandyt, has many more out of body moments (I know exactly what you mean - I remember playing Equinoxe over and over again, in the dark sans candle, when I first got my BS5000. I thought it was staggering). Not sure about the naked on the beach bit mind

Not sure of the actual amp module used in the BL1 but if they're integrated class AB amps modules they will be fairly small (and fairly inexpensive). Class D amps particularly suit low frequency operation (high power, high efficiency and furthest away from any likely aliasing modulation artifacts). That said modern day Class D amps for the upper

kiwi4all: In my opinion this system is not wireless. You will need at least a power cord....and if you have one cable running to the box, who bothers about 2?

Alex: Currently listening to 'Speak to me/Breathe' by Sluggy Ranks from Dub Side Of The Moon. Dark Side Of The Moon in it's entirety, but as dub/reggae! Brilliant. Burn Him!!! Heretic!
