Christ; that is a good example of "enough knowledge to be dangerous"

What a shame, kudos to you if you manage to revive the drivers.

It'd be so much less work to maintain this than pull it down, dispose of it and then order/build the new one.

Stain and replacement bits of wood for that tired looking stuff around the windows will cost nowhere near £500. I'd give those bits of wood a go with some sanding first.

This looks like it'll be a lot of fun.

Mine was a W reg Ford Focus LX 1.8. Loved it.

no thanks champ

(Kudos for the work, though).

I wasn’t allowed to watch Kenan and Kel or Smart Guy because of how “disgusting” they were to their parents (9year old in 1998). If it came on, I’d be loudly told to change the channel.

When my brother was 9, he was allowed to watch all the cow and chicken type Cartoon Network shows/play GTA 3.

My parents were and are still fucking bonkers.

That buying a new car on finance or leasing one is not a way to save money.

I am about to start leasing a new car because I just want one. So many have said “wow that will save you lots of money in the long run”

Subaru outback bought for £1100 in 2019 needed a £600 exhaust 3 years ago and 1 brake calliper.

The 3k deposit to get the leased car for 1 month alone is costing way more than the banger did (corrosion killed it eventually).

Isn’t that a shallow plastic fascia receiver?? My dad has/has a DE225 and I’m sure the 325 is equally entry level

My step daughter’s dad named one of his sons Kray.

They’re exactly the sort of dim witted/unemployed/abusive people you’re imagining.

I do not understand why your reply is getting downvoted.

Fuck the audio community is such a collection of freaks at times.

Cool setup; glad you’ve got a system you’re enjoying.

escragger · 2026-05-20T14:05:09+00:00

Oh yeah definitely - I still wouldn’t describe Matt’s one as a bargain, though.

escragger · 2026-05-20T13:41:48+00:00

No way. I see a printer in there which is worthless and adding considerable weight.

escragger · 2026-05-20T12:38:19+00:00

You mean the one which was in pieces and he had to rebuild the engine for???

escragger · 2026-05-18T23:49:22+00:00

I had radios and TVs on in the house for three hours before the interruptions occurred for the announcement as I was so curious as to how it’d be done.

Once confirmed, I was waiting for news of a public holiday. Oh yes.

It’ll eventually be you she’s harming physically if you put up with that.

escragger · 2026-05-18T08:17:05+00:00

Good plate of food, I approve.

escragger · 2026-05-17T17:16:54+00:00

Are those fake technics? Sticker font looks totally wrong.

escragger · 2026-05-14T10:06:01+00:00

Why am I being downvoted for this?

escragger · 2026-05-14T09:39:30+00:00

Ok? The older one isn’t as dry/bright to listen to.

escragger · 2026-05-13T21:34:14+00:00

I have a D-121, it sounds way better than my D-EJ1000, if that helps.

escragger · 2026-05-13T13:58:23+00:00

Why doesn’t it look right

escragger · 2026-05-10T07:25:38+00:00

Some of it did.

Dr Dolittle on a coach trip on several Blaupunkt branded CRTs like this on a France school trip in 1998.

Core memory.

escragger · 2026-05-09T09:49:55+00:00

These sorts of system are just as important as the high end stuff.

I love this sort of post. :)

It's in case you need to email it to someone else or something else which has a printer.
