Any audio gifts for Christmas?

After purchasing a new Plinius SA250MKIV for my birthday in September, it only seemed fitting to upgrade my Audio Research Reference One to a Reference Two MKII for the holiday season. Helllloo midrange! Also got new dive gear: BC, regulator, computer and bio-fins. Hey, any audiophile gear for diving? Happy 2002 everyone.

I am having a Supratek Syrah tube preamp built for me by Mick Maloney, but I will not recieve it until after New Year's. I can't wait to get it, this thing is beautiful! If you have never seen one go to cantech.net.au on the web to check it out.

Sarah I also received the remastered "All Things Must Pass" which is a real treat! And the new VPI HW19Mk4 turntable should be here any day now. Also orderd a Magnum Dynalab MD102 in gold face. She wanted a better kitchen-grade radio so she received a high-sensitivity Marconi table radio with am fm-stereo tv & weather-alert bands. For just a 5" speakered table radio this little thing sounds very nice indeed, even has adjustable bass & treble. Oh & she also got me a new cell phone battery.

A Yamaha Micro piano craft system MCR-E150 With matching 100 Watt subwoofer. I am amazed at how good the system sounds. Very small and elegant look to boot. High endish sounding without the high end price. Of course this is for bedroom where space is very limited. It is funny the I way I got the green light to buy it. I was looking for a boom box for my daughter (my idea) so that I can browse away.... We did for , oh about five to six diffrent places and I kept going back to this system, on a way passing the well reviwed Denon systems. To me Yamaha was the clear winner. Any way, my wife gave me a green light to buy as a christmas gift and I DID!.

Had great plans for bedroom to build a Tube based system, but for now I (we) will enjoy this christmas gift.

santa got me a new msd electronic ignition for the de tomaso pantera... oops - sorry, wrong kind of music! ;~)

seriously, we also got about ten new cd's w/great sounds to throw at the art di/o dac that has totally transformed my digital world.
