  5. The bathroom stuffs are delivered today. My ID workers recieved the goods without checking and I found that they missed out the 2 mirror cabinets and the rain shower set. Immediately call my ID to settle because these 3 items cost $900!! 5 minutes later my ID call me that the delivery man left it in the van. Luckily they are my ID regular store and they promise to deliver the rest on monday. So I took some photos of the items in the afternoon. The place is too hot for me to shoot more.

  6. I think it should correct to say tat based on our available budget, wharfedale is the best to fit our budget.
  7. I have lots of soft copy of the action movies in blu Ray format from my own source. Cannot disclose here. Tats y I bought the acryan. Now I m trying to find out if there is a possibly of accessing the files from my pc via wireless so tat I can play the entire collection from one location. I can see tat u will soon have a huge collection of blu Ray disc...
  8. Buy the black background at Art friend + print the wordings on a label paper n cut it out n stick on it. $15 the most.
  9. Ely1, We have the same thoughts n taste for our AV setup i m eyeing on the Onkyo ipod dock also as i have lots of songs in my ipod classic. BTW the Oppo-83 is already discontinued n replace by the 93 so I doubt u still can find that. The last check on the price is about $800+. IMO it is a bit ex for a blu Ray player. What type of movie u like n collecting the blu Ray? IMO blu Ray is worth buying for super action movie like Avatar, Transformer, batman, Ironman etc. Non action movie buy DVD will b sufficient. Amazon website has lots of cheap blu Ray titles which u can check it out. Cheers.
  10. Welcome to the Wharfedale club!. Floor standing front speakers is the way to go if you want more clarity and fuller sound. I have auditioned a few tallboy (slim and tall) speakers and actually own one in current old house, I should say the only Pros is the space saving but the Cons is the sound quality. The new setup sound so much better compare to my current Samsung HT. As my new place is still under reno, I am waiting anxiously for them to come down for installation and calibration. Whether we both made the same mistake I dun care, I only believe what I see and what I have heard.
  11. I remember clearly that the cement screed in toilet is what some of the HDB toilets are more than 25 years ago and some of the old houses in China today . If you want to do it, make sure at the end of the day it don't look like a slum. If you succeed in doing it, please post some photos to show us.

  23. If I were you I will find another ID. I have not seen any of my ID quoted 5digit for a toilet. 5digit can do 2 toilets . For a toilet with 5 digit means hack everything, buy designer floor and wall tiles at $10/sqf2, install a shower screen with bathtub + jacuzzi facilities , Granite vanity top, branded basin and WC, waterproof LED lighting and Air Ventillation fan.
  24. Finally today I went to Aldephi to audition speakers that is within my budget of $3K also. After researching the internet for the price and reviews of numerous speakers, the top of my list actually is Klipsch RF-42II series. So first shop I went to is TC. Served by a non chinese Salesman. Told him I want to audition RF-42II series of speakers, he recommended RF-52II mainspeakers and the rest of the speakers is 42II. He told me that RF52II is just $200 more. So I sat down and listen to the movie that he played and also Eagle live convert for music. Totally satifisfied with my research results I ask him the total price (previously I emailed TC to check out the price for RF42II already. It was slightly over $3K after GST). But he show me the calculator display at $4K+ before GST. I was pondering the total price cannot be $4K since email they quoted after GST is only $3K. So I show him the email quote from my Iphone then he said the 4K is with Center Speaker RC52II. KNN just now he said only change the front speakers to RF52II, now the center speaker I just auditioned is the RC52II. With this both speaker 52 series, the price increase by $1K so I told him I want the center speaker to be RC42II, just change the front to RF52II the rest all 42II series. He then tell me that RC42II power is not enough, it is equivilant to satelite speakers only. He insisted I should get the RC52II instead. A bit BS already because he dun listen to me, I told him I want RC42II since the Klipsch website mentioned this RC42II belong to the RF42II series. Guess what he told me next? "Sir you need to do more research before you come". NNB I told what I want to buy and you insulted me like this. Super fustrated at what he say. I told him I go elsewhere and buy. I will never never buy any thing from TC (Authorised distributer in Singapore for Klipsch) again. Still TL with the guy in TC while walking up 4th floor to 2nd choice shop KEC. A few customers are inside and the staffs busy with them. There are stocks all over the place and serioulsy they need to do some 5S for it. I was walking around in the showroom inside the shop and finally Alan came to serve me. I told him what I want. Alan is pro and fast thinking. Immediately he showed me the Wharfedale 10.6 Front speakers, Velodyne CHTQ8 subwoofer, 10.0 surround and 10CC and 10 CS for the Center Speaker. I told him 10CS is a bit big, so he wire up 10CC for me. I was amazed by Alan's excellant EQ and attitude compared to that MF in TC. Alan is so Customer Focused. I sat down and listen to Transformer II 2nd last scene while he sat nearby to workout the total cost and answer my questions. Next he played Eagles live Hotel California. Same song in TC where I auditioned Klipsch. I guess this disc is quite popular in auditioning speakers. I was happy with the setup and cost since it is slightly over $3K and includes installation, and some other free stuffs that I dun want to disclose here. So I bought the following setup from KEC. To be install after CNY when I got my resale flat keys. 1) Onkyo TX-SR 608 Receiver 2) Wharfedale 10.6 Front Speakers 3) Wharfedale 10.0 Surround Speakers 4) Wharfedale 10.0 CC Center Speaker 5) Velodyne CHTQ8 Subwoofer If I have not met the MF in TC today, I would have chosen Klipsch RF42II instead since it was a good buy for a reference speaker with good reviews.
