WOO HOO!
Thanks guys! I was away on a business trip during that time so basically I was hardly aware of it until my wife sent me a message on my phone.
I just got back incidently, and taking a 2 day sick leave.
During that trip I did get myself a well earned present in the form of an RS-1. I auditioned it on the RA-1 which I was not too impressed, then I tried it out on a CARY 300SEI SET integrated amp which also worked very well as a headphone amp. Lovely matched pair of Western Electric 300B tubes... drool!!!

Ha Ha, very funny 6th birthday eh? Incidently my son in that avatar turned 5 years old a week before on Oct, 11th. Cool huh?
eric343:
The tubes are holding out very well. Lets just say, their combination gives the Cary amp a run for its big money! Oh yeah, I haven't got round to posting my impression yet!
JMT:
Is the RS-1 & your Maxed out META a good enough present?
Can't wait to try that combo! It works well on the JMT CHA47.
Thanks also to rickcr42, MacDEF, jpelg, LTUCCI1924, andrzejpw & HighwayStar for your birthday wishes.
