What Holiday Gifts did you ask for or Give to Yourself?

I got myself LG OLED 65 inch TV. Love it.

A new pair of Synergistic Research speaker cables. 

My wife got me a set of IsoAcoustics Gaia ii's. 

I bought a Bob's Devices SUT a few weeks ago.  It wasn't a Christmas present, but now that I have about 12 hours on it, it's proving to be a very nice gift.  Everything that I play sounds better than ever.

Two things, Me, the person who never wins anything, just scored a very nice DALI IO-6 headphone set. Won them by submitting a review on my recently purchased Bluesound node.

This past Friday the better half indulged me with a brand new Flexsteel power recliner to place in the perfect listening position in my listening space. At this stage of my life, it doesn't take much to keep me happy, but this was a winner in spades!

Two REL T/5x subs.  They have made a night and day difference to my listening experience.

Lampizator Golden Gate 3.

I bought it in the name of my wife delivered for me but i choose it myself and i received it 2 weeks ago ... As an exceptional gift for a model children delivered by Santa Claus before his heavy schedule ...😁

A headphone s.s. amplifier Fosi sk01 with three tone controls for my secondary headphone ( AKG K240 sextett), this amp is driven by tube preamplifier Douk P2 which drive also my small modified active speakers to greatness...( low cost chinese products are not all junk it seems ) .

I probably own one of the best audio system in the world in this low ridiculous price category ... Impossible ratio to beat trust me and no evident defect for this price and a total happiness , i will live with that and my main system a top one (Sansui alpha + optimized AKG K340 ) ... 😊

Whilst sitting it out waiting for a Gammon Ham to Poach, I had a search around and found a item with 1 hour left in a auction.

I put on a bid and won a Micro Seiki Platter Mat. The mat is one that was produced to special order only. I'll settle for that as a treat to oneself. 

I didn't ask for anything as I'm good, but my wife surprised me with a Golden Snitch.

For me the Christmas Holiday is about giving. Though my children had an LP made for me of songs that reminds them of me. The cover is all of photos from their childhood and of our family. I spent a good portion of their lives forward deployed and to see and hear this LP was very emotional for me. We did a good job raising good citizens and my father would be proud of the adults they have become, as I am. 
 

Merry Christmas. 

Modwright PH9.0 X/T upgrades.

@bigtwin be right over, i have pacific NW Ling Cod, prawns and smoked salmon…. and a respectable Pinot from 2013….. Good on ya ! Christen that pan well

Gave myself the gift of friends for Christmas dinner.  About to start the prep for a huge seafood Paella in my brand new 18/10 SS 16 inch pan.  That's stainless steel not solid state.  🤣  Best of the season to all.  

Just a small gift for myself. A balanced headphone cable, between my Audotailor Jade OTL preamp and my Audidoquest Nightowl and Nighthawk headphones. Ca 70 usd.
