2025 Audio System Wish List Time!


I’ve been doing this for years now- and it’s time for our 2025 wish list!

In 2024, I added a new power supply for my turntable- a Radikal power supply for my turntable. 

My goal for 2025, as it has been for a number of years now, is to explore and add more music. Streaming has been a fantastic way of exploring new to me music, and in some instances after streaming an album, I also wound up buying it on vinyl.

What’s your audio goal for 2025? A new preamp? A DAC? More music? 

Enjoy 🥂

Never any interest in Mc / Sonus Fabre, maybe They / Bose will come up with a new walkman idea…👍 

Cheers in the New Year !

Been searching for weeks. All I want is a DACless (preferably) streamer under $1000can, ample connections, preferably not Chinese and an excellent UI that works. Compliments my Chord Qutest DAC, Bryston amplification and  Dynaudio speakers. I've given up on sound signature attributes other than I'm old and allergic to glare etc.

Just a simple streamer that works. I've read many times that Bluesound sonic signature is lifeless and I don't need multi-room anything and some are not fond of the UI. Wiim - Chinese plastic of questionable quality- one owner had RCA's breaking from the board. Etc etc.   Btw, I'm mostly looking at pre-owned. 

The search continues.

DIY build of new main system small tower speakers using the highest quality efficient single drivers that are reasonably affordable….the plan is to build a 45”x10”x14” bass reflex cabinet using the Hungarian made Solido 6x9 Field Coil drivers with power supply.  Should be a fun eye (and ear) opening project in 2025!  Cheers to another great year in Audio!
