Dog Gone It!

You beat me to it. Oh well...what I what to know is what is the best AUDIO present you got (ones you bought for yourself don't count unless it was paid for with Christmas loot)...

My Sony V6's (this may be cheating as I got them 2 months ago, but since they were the main thing my wife gave me, I'm counting them)

lotsa money, in many different forms

a new Gerber Knife

numerous CD's

the biggie: a Tabla set...

I'm very happy about these. I'm lucky enough to love extremely close to the headquarters of Tabla.com, and my naturally my teacher knows the guy who runs that company. Therefore, I was able to get a handpicked tabla set . So now I'm taking tabla lessons, and will be for quite some time. That's basically where all my money is going (and I thought I'd be getting a new source :P).

I only got two audio-related gifts:

- A pair of Etymotic ER6s (they haven't arrived yet though)
- Metallica - ...And Justice For All (wonderful album, but the sound quality is pretty bad)

Other stuff I got:

- A new cell phone (go here and click on try the phone to check it out)
- A new alarm clock
- Money (always nice )

I'm very happy with what I got obviously, I never expected so much.
