At Audio Affair, we try to offer the very best in customer service, no matter what the enquiry.

When a customer was informed that his new wireless headphones would be slightly delayed, we stepped in to help him avoid causing issues with his relationship:

Knowing the importance of good quality audio whilst gaming, we quickly responded to the question:

In Memoriam:  1944 - 2014

There are few artists who can boast having both an easily distinguishable voice, and  an equally identifiable stage presence. There are even fewer who can boast a career that spans nearly six decades too. Cocker is one of the few that boasted all of those things - as well a number of awards including a Grammy. Undeniably cool - his career was set the moment he set foot on stage at Woodstock in 1969 to perform a cover of the Beatles' A Little Help From My

Known for their use of blisteringly deep (yet oddly soothing) baritone vocals combined with obscure (yet oddly catchy) lyrics and their proud, unflinching Canadian-ness, The Crash Test Dummies are a band who enjoyed a short yet intense period of mainstream success which has lead to them being a household name. Their second album God Shuffled His Feet, and the singles thereon, were credited as responsible for this success and it still remains a highly successful album to this very day - especially

The Super Group: a band formed out of the members of a number of other successful bands to form something separate, all the while retaining the elements that make their original bands... well, super! Audioslave are one of the most well known Super Groups, who went on to form an identity all their own and recognised as a successful band in their own right. They're not the only ones, but it's likely you've heard the name Audioslave. What's less likely, is you knowing that it is actually a Super

Compact convenience with a teeny-tiny footprint. That’s what you want from your desktop speakers – a way of playing audio from your laptop or PC with minimal fuss and plenty of remaining deskspace. It’s quite simple really. But is sound quality high of your priority list when selecting your perfect desk companions?

If it isn’t, it should be. There are a myriad of ‘PC Speakers’ options out there that, in our opinion, skimp on the sound quality in favour of being small or stylish. And we should know

An investment in some truly excellent floorstanding speakers is pretty much the key to completing your hi-end hi-fi system. After all, what would be the point of having a hi-end set up – the source and the amps – without the speakers to carry that rich, detailed sound from the system to your ears? If the speakers are poor – the sound will be poor, no matter how hi-end the rest of your system. But hi-end speakers can be dear – so we offer 0% finance on many of our makes and models, making them accessible

Cables can be overlooked and even deemed less important the units themselves when a hi-fi system is being set up. The difference that cables can make is still a hotly contested category - despite undeniable proof that they do make a difference - quite a dramatic one - on the quality of sound and on system performance. Everything from the mains to the interconnects to the speaker cables - each cable makes a marked difference.  And when you're investing a lot of time, effort and money into building

So, streaming. You're probably aware of it by now. To say that it has taken the hi-fi world by storm in recent years would be a significant under statement. It's convenient, it's cool - and thanks to recent advances in technology, the sound quality has improved exponentially. There really isn't much of an excuse not to jump aboard the stream train - unless money and space are contributing factors. A dedicated streaming unit takes up space and can be a little pricey. But let's back up a bit, on the

And that's all folks! 2014 is about to pass into a distant memory, and 2015 is hot on our heels. And you know what that means... it's time to PARTY! So grab your party poppers, party hates and get that champagne on ice. But what... aren't we missing something? Oh, of course. Music! No party is complete without music, especially not a NYE party. And if it's high fidelity, well, even better! But which music, might you ask? Well, if it's hi-fi it has to be vinyl. That's a given. So let us recommend
