Some cables for my JDS DAC and Atom AMP.

I know it’s a dangerous game to play but for £20 with a lifetime guarantee, that suits me.

My first step into audiophile cables was QED cables.....that's what kicked it all off, I had to find out for myself so to speak...ended at VDH cables, not because they are the best, but because the prices got very silly and even now I feel like a bit of a plonker spending so much on cables.

Don't worry, the real life version used to scare the bejeesus out of some people too

Finally got some dumbbells. I was concerned about how much I paid, but I realise weights (having never bought them before) are generally quite expensive... for the good stuff, and these do seem very nice.

 

[LiE]

@AndyCr15 glad you got them, hope you make many gains.

I also received a delivery yesterday of heavy things.


The big boys, may need to get some 50s next.

20s + 16s

8s + 12s

some hex 2.5s

Land mine.

cosy.

Nice little play area, should keep you busy.

 

[Arcane]

New kitchen's gone in, no flooring yet though.

Getting nervous looking at that bench! Doesn't look too stable to me.

The big question will be whether he changes it all around as much as he does his desk setup

Well not sure how much changing around you can do with that setup.

Which bench, the one with the weights or the kitchen bench?

The weights bench. Mines got a 6 inch plate either side of the main beam and that's unstable enough, not having anything would worry me!

not if, when.

It's a very good bench, not sure why you think it would be unstable? Doesn't move at all. Had another like this before, exactly the same and it comfortable handles me bench pressing 150kg+

It's identical to pretty much all the commercial gym benches used.

How will you get the flooring under the panels?

That link actually highlights the problem I'm thinking of really well! Let's say you're doing seated overheads. The weight will be at the front of the bench over the single leg, not at the back over the double.

 

[Arcane]

They're set up with 25mm gap so that the wooden floor can go in. You don't generally lay the floor completely under the units, just under the base plinth.

I know what you're saying, but it doesn't move at all. It's a standard design across 1000s of commercial gyms, never had any issues.

The weight will be spread over all 3 legs no matter where you sit....
