    Transport og import Kjøp, salg, betaling og transport til og fra utlandet tråden

    Thanks for the info. And it's pretty much as I expected. Not to sound shady, but is it common practice to undervalue stuff when importing secondhand? Obviously the risk is there for insurance purposes and even if it was an extra 1000 or so krone on top I think it would om to stomach but once you...

    Transport og import Kjøp, salg, betaling og transport til og fra utlandet tråden

    I'm potentially going to purchase a pair of speakers from a private seller outside of Norway (Saudi Arabia, to be exact). I'm a little unfamiliar with how the import tax works for a private transaction like this, rather than just buying from an online retailer. Is there anything I should be...

    Høyttalere Looking for info/opinions on Omega speakers (Alnico and/or XRS)

    I think what attracted me to the Omegas -- apart from the fact that they are, indeed, attractive -- is the seemingly relative value for money. They are well-priced (even with the dreaded import tax bump) for a bespoke, single-driver speaker. Sadly, as nice as brands like AudioNote and Cube are...

    Høyttalere Looking for info/opinions on Omega speakers (Alnico and/or XRS)

    Thanks for the input! even if you haven't had both Decware and Omega at the same time, it's still very valuable to help understand the limitations. You make a fair point about SPL but these days I don't have much opportunity to crank the volume as I have small kids and tend to stick to more...

    Høyttalere Looking for info/opinions on Omega speakers (Alnico and/or XRS)

    Hey there. Apologies for being terrible at Norwegian and resorting to English😓 I've recently moved house and as a result, need to consolidate what was previously two hifi systems down to one. This system will be in the living room and, as such, the ahem "aesthetics" of larger speakers aren't to...

    Humminguru - Ny ultralydvasker til US$ 349,-

    Ah, yup. Have the funnel on order but seems like it won't get here until late July/early August. But maybe I'll get lucky and it shows up sooner. You're definitely way more cavalier than a lot of other people I've been reading about using this machine. The high isopropyl ratio and leaving the...

    Humminguru - Ny ultralydvasker til US$ 349,-

    My HG arrived yesterday in record time! It really is a well put together piece for the price. Just wondering what mode you run it on for the best results with your mixture? And do you do a rinse cycle with just distilled water afterwards? I'm using Tergikleen as the surfactant and it...

    Humminguru - Ny ultralydvasker til US$ 349,-

    Ahh, I looked into blårens at my local hardware store but couldn't seem to figure out what the concentration of isopropyl in it was. I can't know for sure, but based on the price and the fact that the bottle made it look like it was for cleaning floors, I suspected that it wasn't over 90%. Maybe...

    Humminguru - Ny ultralydvasker til US$ 349,-

    That sounds sensible enough. I think I'm just being a bit overcautious with regards to the leeching. And I suppose you change out the solution after 30 or so cycles so it's not necessarily sitting there for months or years on end. Any particular isopropyl you recommend? I bought some from my...

    Humminguru - Ny ultralydvasker til US$ 349,-

    Takk for tipset! Consider it ordered. So, the idea would be to pour the solution out of the HG container back into via this funnel rather than the in-built one? The more milage I can get out of the solution the better for sure. Good to know that it sorted out your damp spots. That's an issue...

    Humminguru - Ny ultralydvasker til US$ 349,-

    Ha yeah, it always struck me a bit odd that they say not to put anything other than distilled water in the machine, but I suspect that is more to cover their asses because people make vinyl-cleaning concoctions out of anything and everything and it would be tricky to account for it. Anyways, I...

    Humminguru - Ny ultralydvasker til US$ 349,-

    Very encouraging to hear that you're having such success with it. And that it seems sturdy enough to handle such a sizeable number of records without signs of wear and tear. Are you using a surfactant in the process? I realise that doing so will void the warranty but I've been reading that...

    Humminguru - Ny ultralydvasker til US$ 349,-

    My use case is the same as yours - new or NM. The occasional filthy second hand LP but then I can run it through the Knosti a few times first. Sounds like the Humminguru is the right choice and glad to hear you're having such success with it. I just wish they had a local distributor for...

    Humminguru - Ny ultralydvasker til US$ 349,-

    That's encouraging to hear. I've been using the Knosti Disco Antistat for years and it works well enough, but am really interested in something a bit more automated. The ultrasonic cleaners seem like a smarter bet based on my research and the Humminguru is a great price even if it isn't the...

    Thanks for the info Oh nice. Good to see that there are so many options. I was starting to scratch my head as to why I couldn't find any haha. Thanks for the assist, all. Anyone able to say how the Humminguru compares to the Pro-ject vacuum machines? With shipping and import tax it ends up...

    ah god to know! So something like this should be good? https://www.biltema.no/bilpleie/tilsetningsmidler/ovrige-tilsetningsmidler/batterivann-2000017087?gclid=CjwKCAjwquWVBhBrEiwAt1KmwgN-CUPOkWbT9NBKXPG2oNQroIBrUu7DRWUOhPCgeAnQ1PVpXO1VyxoCEQMQAvD_BwE

    Sorry to hijack the thread but does anyone have a link to where I can buy distilled water in Norway? Either online or in a store. I was recommended to use batterivann but I think that is incorrect, no?
