2025 Audio System Wish List Time!

I’ve been doing this for years now- and it’s time for our 2025 wish list!

In 2024, I added a new power supply for my turntable- a Radikal power supply for my turntable. 

My goal for 2025, as it has been for a number of years now, is to explore and add more music. Streaming has been a fantastic way of exploring new to me music, and in some instances after streaming an album, I also wound up buying it on vinyl.

What’s your audio goal for 2025? A new preamp? A DAC? More music? 

Enjoy 🥂

I've been trying to head towards a lower powered tube system but finding high sensitivity speakers I like without breaking the bank has been tough. So, some used high sensitivity speaks and el34/84 or 6550 amplification would be nice.  Perhaps a better DAC to replace my Denafrips Ares II

To further refine my DIY TangBand W8-1808 single driver speakers. After a year or so with them I'm still blown away by there midrange/treble distribution.

Also want to dip into a tube pre-amp or maybe a Hybrid tube integrated. The Vincent line looks very intriguing.

@pkatsuleas.   I know what you mean.  At axpona, I hope to look at Fyne loudspeakers, but realize I will need a new amp as well.  Fun to dream, isn't it?
