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


I have been too busy to even think about what I would have asked for or given myself. One of my friends is going Buck Wild giving UPS a profitable finish to the year.

You?

In Canada we also celebrate Boxing Day.  I'm thinking of buying myself a set of speaker cables.  I don't really need them but it's such a good deal.  A brand new member to Audiogon has just put up for sale, a pair of Nordost Valhalla ll reference cables that sell for $19,000 MSRP, for the low low price of only $1,600.  The seller doesn't have the original box, the printing on the shrink-wrap looks suspicious but they assure me the cables are genuine.  It's Audiogon so I should be OK, right?  🤣

@jayctoy,  congratulations on the LG OLED.  Last January, I purchased a Sony top of the line 55 inch OLED for our living room   My main stereo takes up a good portion of the room so we only had room for a 55 inch.   My wife and I love it, it is so lifelike you can almost reach in and touch the colors.  Enjoy your new toy!

Gosh, where do I start? This December I got a Brinkmann Nyquist Mk II DAC, Graham Engineering Phantom III tonearm, 3-meter WW Platinum Eclipse 8 XLR’s and waiting for my Cardas Clear Beyond x2 tonearm cable. My VAC Master line stage is in Sarasota, FL for silver faceplates and the phono stage. I couldn’t forget my wife for allowing me to buy my toys, so she’s getting something colorless, shiny and more expensive than any of the equipment’s MSRPs.

The latest TV's have resolution that is attention grabbing.

I was in a few stores looking a at few models in the run up to the Holiday.

The TV Watcher has never had it so good.

Last Christmas.  Pro-ject Signature 10 turntable with  matte finish Burl Walnut plinth.  Stayed with Pro-ject for the phono amp RS and Sumiko Celebration 40 cartridge because they discount the "accessories" significantly.
