Photos Latest Purchases Thread: v2.0

Agreed, I had a few bottles of that over xmas it was lovely

 

Crucial M4 128GB SSD,
Silverstone Fortress FT03B,
3x 120mm Be Quiet! USC Silentwings (dammit just realised I need another one but my order has already shipped),
and an Aqua Computer Aquaero 5 XT to replace my ageing T Balancer classic (actually nothing wrong with it but the software hasn't been updated in years so wanted to change).

 

How is it? Thinking of picking up the vsx-1021k in the next few weeks to replace my old yamaha that doesn't support HDMI, 3d and upscaling.

 

It's Pioneer. Nuff' said.

No really, the quality is great, the manual is a million pages and it seems to be able to do almost anything. The guy I bought it from actually upgraded to the VSX-1021K because he needed the Airplay functionality.
Having owned it for around 24 hours now, the only thing that is letting me down is the remote, which has a MILLION buttons and is not for fat-fingered people like me. Oh, and the speaker terminals on the back of it are a bit cramped, but then you gotta ask yourself how often you go around changing the wires on your 7.1 speaker setup.

 

Bastion Ultimate Collector's Bundle

 

Two of these:

Got myself a flecktarn uniform for paintball

 

Very expensive day today...

1 x T0715 Multipack Ink
1 x T0711 Black Ink (additional to the one that is included in the multipack)
1 x 60 sheets of Kodak Glossy 6"x4" photo paper

The cost? £75 around abouts.

Very expensive day for consumables that shouldn't cost as much as they do.

I did buy printer inks from an online store a year or so ago and first few worked wonders and all of a sudden they stopped working and had to resort to buying proper Epson Inks.

 

I bought an iPhone 4 yesterday.

 

I had a somewhat expensive Sunday tbh.

My local BMW dealership had an open day and I ended up putting down a deposit on a 2008 BMW 335d M Sport Coupe in Le Mans Blue....

I have been looking for one of these for ages but hadn't found the right one until now.

My A1 has been giving me grief for quite a while now and Audi refuse to accept there may be something wrong with it (it should not squeak when engaging the supercharger). It has been a good little card but TBH the twin charge engine is not ready for full production yet, there are too many issues with it.

Got some paperwork to sort out and need to transfer my cherished plate but should pick it up in a couple of weeks.

 

I hate you so much

I bought two 140mm Cooler Master blue LED fans

 

Expensive day yesterday:
Sony strdh820 av reciever,
Cambridge audio s70 floorstander speakers
Cambridge audio s90 sub woofer
Hdmi cable
Cambridge audio 100 sub cable
4m Cambridge audio bi-wire silver speaker cable

Pics to follow soon!!

 

Livescribe Echo pen + stuff around it.

 

Some Arctic Cooling MX-2, because it was all the PC shop in town had.

 

TC Electronic Level Pilot; means I can control the volume output of my studio monitors without suffering from the reduced bit depth that the Windows volume control effects as a result of dithering. Also means I can happily play bit-perfect from Foobar without waking up the entire dorm (Win7 vol. control doesn't work when Foobar's in WASAPI mode).

 

Well it is my Birthday this week

 

Interesting, why Foobar and not Mediamonkey Gold?

 

Foobar's free, simple and lightweight - just been using it for yonks so never saw the need to change. I think I have Mediamonkey though, seems to have a pretty good library organiser.

 

Any software that has the upgrade key as the first result in Google is free in my eyes!

 

I forgot it was a girl stating this, and thought a guy had bought himself a few hours with a lady similar looking to that one

Happy birthday.
