2022 Audio System Wish List and thoughts about streaming

I've been doing this at the end of December for years for a number of years now- so here goes one more time-

What is on your audio wish list for the coming year? 

For several years I anticipated the need to replace an aging (close to 20 year old) phono cartridge- I finally did that in 2021. I also changed the power supply for my turntable. I'm extremely pleased with my turntable. A friend gave me a slightly damaged but fully functional McIntosh subwoofer as well. All other gear is unchanged and with no desire to change anything.

I also bought a Bluesound Node which I am enjoying quite a bit. My ultimate goal is to use the Node in a bedroom system and go for a different streaming transport in my main listening area. I'm looking at the "usual suspects" - Aurender, Auralic, Lumin, etc. 

As far as adding new music, getting into streaming (I use Qobuz) has caused a musical explosion! Since getting the Node in September I've built a library of about 90 new to me albums.

jerry, you're the least relevant person here. 
You demonstrate that every time you post what you think is offensive.
(hint: it's just sad)

At least you're not posting your personal porn like you did on that other thread.
I don't think the mods liked that. Not one bit.
Did they say anything to you about that?
Soon you'l be banned like skypunk and therealearlflynn.
Can't wait.

By the way, snark works best when it's original in nature and not just copying someone and doing the "I'm rubber, you're glue" routine.

All the best,
Nonoise

Golly, one hour later I come back and you're still at it, like a little puppy nipping at all of my posts. Tammy's been around the block a few times and can tell who's zooming who so hold on as you'll probably be hearing from her soon.
Like I said, can't wait.

All the best,
Nonoise

I've been ready for my Technics SU-G700M2 for a couple of months now and it looks like it won't be available until February. It's been 8 years since I've upgraded my integrated and for some reason, I barely listen to anything anymore. 

Don't get me wrong as it's always rewarding when I do after a hiatus but for some reason, audio isn't doing for me lately. I think it's all from anticipation. 

As for streaming, I'm not into that. Curating collections and maintaining accounts don't do it for me. But that's just me. 

All the best,
Nonoise
