Are they still standing ?Had offered to have a BBQ on Saturday in memory of my brother in laws birthday who died last October. Of course this is England so had to go and buy these!

Thanks.
Going to assume a lot here and think you're a little bit if an 'audiophile' as i remember the classic Bang an Oulsen that i commented on in a previous post. How do you find the sound with Audioengine D1 DAC(?) run through soundcard/onboard?
I'm upgrading my whole system in a few months - the lot - including speakers and AKG K702 headphones (their use mainly for music, radio 4/5 and light gaming) and want a decent balance between size and sound. Your office space is isn't that dissimilar to mine and the speakers about the right size - would you mind evaluating the sound quality of the speakers?
No worries if i've assumed wrong - especially if you don't use them for music...
Cheap headphone stand and mouse mat.
Two questions
What's the little block of wood for, and why do you have the wrong console?
Other than that it look fantastic

Just as well you quoted me, I've only gone and forgotten your question like a tw@.
I'll set a reminder for tomorrow, I promise

You are correct re the audiophile thing (although I don't like that term!) and the main system I have is Meridian and KEF Reference based. I've had the A2's for a while now and for the price/size I find them to be quite detailed but also warm sounding - very pleasing overall. They are a little light on bass but it is possible to connect them to an active subwoofer which I did do in my old house when I had a little more room. The DAC is connected to the PC via USB.
There's a newer version of the A2's out now.

Thank you. The wooden block is a coaster. The Switch is great!
Agreed - if not for the fact auto-correct could cripple reputations.
Excellent, thanks. And oddly enough the latter was what i was hoping to read - lack of bass rather than the words 'trebly'.

One thing which did make a surprising difference for the speakers was the stands. They're relatively expensive for what they are but do a good job of angling the speakers upwards and making things noticeably clearer when seated.

Are they still standing ?
Took one down, the other is still up. They’ve actually been surprisingly decent for £20 each.
Issue being all the smoke collected around head height for me
Sorry, missed this - I couldn't fit that addition into my setup unfortunately (3 screens) but height of speaker alone would fit if i raised setup a fraction - but thanks, good to know.

Take it to a jeweler that specialises in that brand?
I did that with my wifes Rolex she inherited. Cost about £60 from memory.

Ok thanks £60 seems reasonable.

Built a nice new gaming PC, but still was using a crappy MS keyboard. That just wouldn't do, so I noticed the K95 platinum with blues (which I love as I type a lot), has been reduced to £130. Couldn't resist. Absolutely love it, it's glorious to type on. Adore the clickiness and the RGB. Apparently it's got over 16 million colours, so I'll go through every one until I find my favourite.
