Heya guys, Heh, again it's been to long since I last wrote or infact read the md-l group. Alas my education takes a lot out of my life. I'm looking at getting a minidisc deck and a cd deck for my hi-fi. I was originally looking at getting seperate units. But lack of space in my uni room, and some of the features make me look at getting a single unit. I was looking through the RicherSounds Catalogue (more on that later). I saw MSDX3, I've read a little into it and it sounds like a good unit, barr the fact it has no optical output (of which I'm not intrested.) I was woundering if anyone else had any comments on it? From what I read it's ideal for my first md deck. I was just woundering what other fealings people had about it. 2nd, Richer Sounds Internet Ordering... just a little warning. I recently ordered a pair of speakers (Gale Gold Monitor Mk2) for a friend. As it was under my name I've had to do all the follow up's, etc. First of all I ordered these on a Monday morning. RS then did not process the order until Wednesday, and then debited my credit card. They then did not ship the speakers until Friday! First of all I find this bad business practice. Most companys do not take payment until they ship. The speakers then did not arive until the Wednesday. They box they where in was badly beaten (Courier: Business Express), the speakers in question where damaged. One of the courners of the speaker was dented and the front covers had been sheared off (ie the plastic bits that go into the speakers where broken). I precided to ring up Richer Sounds and complain. Thankfully they where more the happy to collect the set and then supply a new pair. Which would have taken aproximatly a week. My friend decided that he could not be bothered with that and asked for a discount. Which he got. (Although a little low IMHO), He wanted postage £8 and £20 for damage to the speakers. Richer Sounds after consideration with a manager where happy to refund a total of £30. Although I have had this experience with RS I would still be happy to shop with them any day. I would visit any store and I would order by phone to make sure it was sent that day, and I would request a different carrier. *shrug*, I appologise for the bad grammer and spelling, I've just got back from being on the road for about four hours so I'm pritty shot. On another note, I'm considering stopping my Sharp 7XX web site, if anyone is intrested in taking it over, or Rick if you want to put it's content on minidisc.org (which I would prefer). It would be sad to see it close down after the work I've put into it. As I said I'm only considering... *shrug* Although it looks more likely then not *sniff*. Have fun, Peter. -- "We do not ask for money, only knowledge." -- Me.
