What'd You Get For Xmas?


Jewish, so I got my Hanukah gift weeks ago: A NOS quad of 1960s Raytheon 5842/417A windmill getter tubes for my phono preamp! Heaven! Unbelievable improvement in the sound stage from the WE 417A I had in there. Tube upgrades always make me happy!

Several nice orchids to baby and coax into blooming.  Not audiophile I know, but very cool and very appreciated.  Audio purchases coming soon now that I am off work for a couple months (landscaper).  Dac and phono stage first up I think.  I have a few things to sell off.

I did purchase a new REL t9x recently so i guess we can say it was an early Xmas gift to myself.  Working out very nicely btw.  

Happy holidays to all!

 

  

Nothing Audiophile in nature, I only trust myself for such things....however, what I did get is very nice. I did set up a small system, including a turntable, for my daughter. It makes me happy that she can now enjoy what I do, albeit, on a lower level. It was great fun configuring the system and setting it all up for her. 

Signature 10 turntable, Satin Burl Walnut finish.  With Pro-ject phono amp and recommended Sumiko MC cartridge.  Wife said if I wanted that I was on my own, thank you dear.  Should be here in a month or two.

@dhcod Wait- adult guys get Chanukah gifts?  That memo has circulated yet to my family-
