Products you added to your system in 2021 that made most impact to your music enjoyment

If a " system " cannot do this, I move on........
I wish someone would "auto tune" the live DVD's recordings like Eagles @ Melhorne's Farewell Tour. Why that disc is used as everybodys demo I cant figure out... If that damn thing sounds so good WHY cant all the other later bands/studios come up o... 
What were the radio stations of your youth that helped you on your music/audio journey?
Back in the mid to late 70's there was a radio station in Columbus Ohio called Stereo Rock 92. Their competitor was QFM 96 that still thrives today. Rock 92 had something called "Midnight And Other Beast". Every Friday night at midnight they would...

What do audiophiles do in their cars?
XM Radio with whatever the best "optional radio with *** speakers is available. I think the Pacifica has Harmon Kardon 20 speakers and a sub, and my Corvettes always had a Bose system. And I must have the "optional biggest wheels and tires on what... 
How long is it taking to receive a preamp?

What are your top 5 Billboard top 10 songs of the 1970"s?
You might want to have look at this .. the racing site that is "the go too" for us NHRA class Racers has a little thread "Musical Taste". A buddy and me started it a year ago, and so far it has 84 thousand views (from racers). Its a thread similar...
