Need 32 inch LCD TV for playing game

bluey88 — Sun, 25 Apr 2010 19:48:54 +0800

I need some recommedation for a lcd tv for my bedroom, mostly for playing PS3 and xbox360 games.

As i will probably be sitting not more than 1.5m from the TV i think 32 inch will be more than sufficient.

The budget for the TV should be around the Rm1500 mark.

Hope some sifus here will help me out on this.

Need tips on desktop amp/dac

bluey88 — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 11:52:26 +0800

Im looking for ways upgrade my current Headphone setup.

My current rig consist of a CDP + Musical Fidelity Digilog DAC as CD source and Senn HD650 (new version) amped with a D2 Boa. The sound is acceptable but im looking for some thing better. I would like the sound to be warm and sweet with a lot of dynamic and PRAT.

I would be upgrading both the source and amp and below is my wishlist.

Source : Audio-GD 19mk3 ( hope its much better than the digilog. Also need it to play the 24/96 flac master recording)

Amp : Either a good solid state or tbe desktop amp not more than RM1500

SS Amp : Audio-GD C2C or equivalent

Tube Amp : Darkvoice 336SE/332s or Littledot MkIV SE or equivalent

I know i hv ask some sifus here for advice, but more input would be better especially im really uncertain on the SS and tube amp part (ie do i need to change to NOS tubes from the stock tubes and how much will it really affect my budget)
