What were your favorite gear additions in 2024?

Grimm MU-1 streamer is a great piece of gear.  Streaming quality really improved over my Roon Nucles.

GT 3 Audioworks Planer Magnetics and Twin servo subs. 

Best addition was WiiM streamer units for a couple of the systems. 
 

Otherwise, the best additions were subtractions of gear that had been lying about for a period of time. 
 

Nice to have some breathing room on the shelves. 

1. Balanced Audio Technology (BAT) VK-80 tube preamp - Replaced my Holo Audio May KTE preamp.

2. GIK Diffusers behind my Magnepan speakers.

Both of these purchases brought my sound to a different level.

In April I will be attending the AXPONA show for the 4th year in a row and plan on doing a major speaker upgrade/purchase. Hopefully that will help me make a decision.

Had an epiphany this year.

Power cables and power conditioners can make a much bigger improvement in SQ than components, even in relatively modest systems.

Upgraded to a Nordost QBase Reference power conditioner, which cost more than any of my components and more than my speakers, and my SQ rivals that of $750k systems I have heard.
