What gear is on the horizon?

 I wouldn't have changed anything except for I DID Change. My hearing that is. As my hearing diminishes, it doesn't seem to be at a linear rate at all frequencies. Odd but true. My ears, I won them.

  I have said all of this to tell you that I am going to class D amplification, and possibly horn speakers. The biggest reason is that class D has punch. Same with the speakers. I am guessing that it may relate to what extra kick is related to this hearing change. 

@4krowme - What horn speakers are you looking at?

 I haven't decided what horns would be in my budget. As of now I am using Mark Audio P12 drivers in a horn loaded (rear) enclosure. While this design has been one of my favorites, it may do good to have at least the midrange driver of a system horn loaded as well. I have a lot to think about.

My AN Dac is in the shop getting a full refurbish after a bridge rectifier failed and took some other components out, so focused on getting that back sometime later this year!

I second willgolf , Lampizator Horizon.  Brand new unit that just arrived in the US.  I've not heard it yet but I own the Golden Atlantic TRP and can only imagine what it might sound like.
