I bought a new listening room- with some bedrooms and other stuff attached. 
It’ll be ready in August/September. 1936 square feet.
Oh yeah, forgot to mention I also got married. @kvetcha got to meet her earlier this year. So I’ve been a little busy.
Here’s what the house looks like now:
Here’s what it’ll look like finished:
I do plan on buying a Wiim Ultra when we move-both my wife and stepdaughter love music but they aren’t into vinyl.

Tuner is strictly for background, mostly classical and jazz. Not into streaming. I’m old and set in my ways.

Damn - I’ve been thinking about Cornwalls ever since that photo came out.
They *would* fit better in my space than La Scalas…

Blackbird singing in the dead of night…
Dr. Feickert Analog’s Blackbird that is.
She’s a big old beast, especially as I put her where I had a Rega Planar 8 up until this afternoon. The Blackbird’s aluminum top and bottom plates work well with all my other silver aluminum gear too. At least to my eye.
Right now I’m running it with my Zu/Denon DL-103 rebuilt by SoundSmith on a Jelco TK-850L arm. Eventually I’ll mount my Grado Timbre Reference and a head amp, but I’m holding off on that until my new rack comes.

Isn’t there a law against keeping meters in a cabinet like that.

Well, Accuphase is Japanese, and the Japanese even have an etiquette guide for foreigners visiting or moving to Japan. So… this tracks.

I’ve already ordered a new rack. It’s a small shop, so I was quoted 14-16 weeks for it to be made. That was just a couple weeks ago. So as long as no one rats me out to the meter police, I’ll be clear.

The MC275 is my fav Mac amp of all that I’ve heard.

I have no Mc experience other than when they were paired with audition gear at stores. I'd have to add in a preamp which would make this a very pricey buy but it'd be an endgame amp. Gonna ponder if I feel like adding it in.
