NITROUS OXIDE ( nos / n2o ) advice forum

managed to get the hifi out the cuboard and back into use today
after 30mins of cleaning heatsink fins i decided a- i was bored and b- its a lot of heatsink
so im offering up the hifi as a contender for the biggest heatsink to be found in a home

i guess i just need to get out more

Yup you deffo need to get out more

Got a bigger heat sink than that on the BACK OF MY FRIDGE!

Only I'm not taking it out to get a photo

i forgot the need to be 100% accurate and specific on this forum
doesnt a heat exchanger on the back of a fridge count as an intercooler not a heatsink?
as its trying to loose heat from a flowing medium to another?

be to be clear and precise, i was talking about solid metal to air heatsinks

Ah but it IS a heatsink - just a liquid one!

Yore just JEALOUS Moo coz you didnt think of that one

Nah - it is a big heat sink - so why so big? You dont have volume that goes to 11 so you?

i was just pleased to be able to listen to music again through a decent system
after 3yrs of tunes on pc speakers and tv the portable cd player in the kitchen was starting to sound good

it does kinda go upto 11 , 150watts rms per channel, 4channels, 600watts rms total
speakers are biamped top box is a power amp which does the trebble, and the next one down is a pre-power amp which does bass

mrs gone to work and sam at nursery, so im doing some testing

3 mains leads, 4 rca interconnects and 8 speaker wires just to listen to a cd
got the fancys for an offboard dac too, thatll add another mains cable, 2 xlr balanced cables or a optical digital lead and 2 more rca interconnects
does sound nice though

A REAL system
I can relate to that as my 21 yr old Kenwood (no, not a fekkin food mixer) is still pumping out the sounds.

That kinda makes me sorry I sold my Wharfedale E40's a while back to fund more WON stuff

Those were just my surround speakers

There's a lot to be said for big old things, I mean there's Pel and myself as classic examples

at 38 yrs old i think i now come under that heading too lol
ive had kenwood hifi gear before, i think ive still got a kenwood twin tape deck somewhere
in the 1990s they made some really nice seperates

was tempted to buy some old quad gear before i bought the meridian stuff, that was from the 1960s using valves
solidstate electronics equils watts rms though

i think its the quality of the speakers that make a lot of the difference, buying the linn ninka`s had made the biggest improvement
