What have you been working on in 2020?


New system? Getting into DIY? New bands?

I’d love to know what you’ve been doing that is audio-related this year. Dare I hope some of you have gotten soldering guns? Heat guns? Cables or caps?
For me, I’ve gotten into Roon and the Pi 4. Finally set up my combined 2-ch/HT set up with a new HT processor, and done a little blogging on Roon and subwoofers.  Last night I took my Pi 4 apart and added tiny little heat sinks to the RAM, USB and Ethernet chips.

I would like to learn to solder and do little audio projects. That is cool that you added little heat sinks.

I'm getting back into analog and actively setting up my old Linn Sondek LP 12 turntable and trying to identify the source of hum from my old Linn K9 cartridge.

My all Bryston system is getting tweaked with upgraded power cords. I am still actively "auditioning" my new Bryston MM 1/3 phono stage which I have running into the same outboard power supply as my BP-26 preamp. I was considering special ordering some upgraded umbilical cords for the MM stage and the preamp from a place in Canada called Take 5 audio.

My Linn turntable is about the get the new Karousel bearing, a Green Street audio CNC aluminum subchassis, a Trampolin subbase, a Radiakal power supply upgrade and a new tonearm cable. So a lot is happening all at once that is quite exciting.
