What were your favorite gear additions in 2024?

Several things for me.

Two iFi Active Power Stations - did a great job at cleaning up power issues and really opened up the sound of my system.

Rolling tubes in my LTA microZOTL pre - took a wonderful preamp to a whole new level. Telefunken ECC801s and CBS/Hytron VT231s.

HumminGuru record cleaner (the latest model) - so easy to use and has me listening to vinyl nonstop. Just love it.

ZenWave DSR 4.2 interconnects - remarkable in so many ways. Imaging, their ability to let my other equipment shine, openness, dynamics. Demoing Dave’s PSR power cable now as well.

Spent this past year focusing on the lower frequency range with the purchase of a REL Classic 98 and Decware ZRock3 (ZR3). The Decware is a simple two slope tube equalizer that I’ve simply fell in love with over the past few months due to the weight (expected) and liquidity (unexpected) it’s brought to my system. The wait was long for the ZR3, but worth it.

Triangle Magellan 40th Anniversary Duetto speakers. Fabulous speakers!

Started the year with

Benchmark AHB2 amp, DAC3 and HPA4 Pre. 
ATC SCM11 Speakers and Blue Jeans Cables using my MacBook as a streamer.

Ended the year with

Accuphase P4600 amp, MSB Discrete DAC (using it as a Pre as well), Aurender N20 Streamer and Harbeth C7ES-XD speakers and all DH Lab cables. Also a Shunyata Gemini 8 Power Conditioner. 

So complete turnover. Results wonderful. Enjoying it every day with no inclination to change anything. 
 

KORG DSD 10R for FINALLY completing my LP, Cassette, and Reel to Reel archiving project...
