For ages now I have been trying to find some speakers that were reasonably priced that were a step above the average offerings found for PC's.
This is an informative and interesting post that may influence my future purchasing decisions. It should have been sent to luv-talk, however, per Luv mailing list policy.
Please direct follow-ups to luv-talk.
Problem is for a particular technical reason (Note 1) I am not on luv-talk, so its either luv-main or no informative posts such as this. What is your judgment on this. I am not trying to make trouble here but if I cannot see luv-talk I am NOT going to post on it. Note 1: I am on a dial up line that is currently running at only between 9600 to 12,800 bits per sec (dead slow) the traffic on luv-talk was plain murder on the download times, so no luv-talk. Given Telstra's chronicaly bad technical work on such services these days I do not expect this to change anytime soon. It taking me nearly 12 months to get it this good, The speed is below the minimum for a dial up (19,200 is the minimum) but it does work and it __is__ reliable, something I definitely __CANNOT__ say about radio (in this part of the world anyway). Large downloads are done in the internet cafe in town 30 kilometres away. This is capable of downloading 700 megabytes an hour, good :-). Lindsay
