What equipment have you bought this year so far ?

Got a pair of JBL 4429’s on a lark from MD (60 day trial).  Completely made me wonder why I wasted so much time and money on all the uber expensive transducers and gear I’ve owned in the past.  They just sound so much more like actual music than most speakers I’ve owned.  Nothing perfect, but they unleash the dynamics and contrast of live music that I love!  Also got some Transparent Plus cabling that really allowed my system to open up and breathe with even more dynamic headroom and unforced detail...very organic sounding.

Rogue Audio RP-1 - excellent piece
Zu audio Mission interconnects and phono cables - also excellent
Straight Wire Pro Thunder power cord - nice upgrade over stock

A year of college for one son, a year of grad school for the other

Priorities, I guess, but I'd love to be able to get some of the gear others have listed here...

Nothing, nothing at all and quite pleased about that

HA! I thought the same thing ... then I remembered purchasing a 7V linear ps from Small Green Computer on January 3rd. 

PS Audio Stellar Gain Cell Dac and S300 power amplifier
Focal Clear Headphones
Schiit Bifrost DAC
Schiit Jotunheim amp

Finding good value buying Croft GCI integrated and Croft separates. Hand made, point-to-point, valve hybrids for the best of both worlds. Acoustic BBQ USB and Schroder interconnects made a noticeable improvement over Analysis-Plus.
