Were you naughty or nice? What did Santa bring you! Audio related only please!


I guess my wife and daughter paid more attention than I thought to the many emails I sent them saying " this would be cool" etc.

Full Ultrasonic cleaning system cw rotisserie style record rack holding 5 albums at a time to clean. Looks to be well built and already cleaned 20 so time to play them and see what changes.

Hifiman HE-4XX headphones from Drop ( one of their Drop only specials). Sounds way better than my old Meze Audio cans from a quick listen this morning.

What did YOU get?

Synergistic Research Orange Fuse.  Now to consider whether or not to post my impression, once I have the opportunity to install it.
Corpse Cable Gravedigger headphone cable as upgrade for my Audeze LCD-X, soon to be on the way thanks to my lovely daughters!
An Orren Ellis geometric lighted doorbell (the doorbell not the push-button). Damn thing won't light up even after installing a required resistor.

Oh, Audio related? a sweet Polk 12 inch subwoofer to fill out the bottom on my home-theater system. $330 delivered. Saved at least $1000 not buying the high-priced spread. 
A book from my wife.
For some reason she doesn't buy me audio stuff.

A week ago though I did order myself a Schumann Resonator Chartres MkV with two power supplies.
