It does look like logjam is beginning to break loose; just paid an invoice for a yggy-gs, and Laura confirmed my ship address.........

Congrats.

I have a dog like that. She'll start drooling over any mention of food. Including pizza.

Visited my local small audio shop to buy speaker stands for my LS50s. We talked all things audio for awhile, and I mentioned I might be interested in bigger speakers in the future. The dealer showed me a pair of Dali Opticon 8s he had in back room, and I listened to them for an hour or so.

Girlfriend was a bit puzzled when I came home empty handed. New speakers are coming in tomorrow morning.

Yeah, I know the feeling well. Welcome to the machine

Awesome and thank you. I’ve only had new haven style clam pizza but those are out of the shell, Very good. I’m not a big fan of other seafood on pizza. I make traditional Neapolitan pizza at with my Ooni oven no whole clams though , I love it.

In Chiang Mai, Thailand, after weeks of curry, rice, and noodles, we went to a pizza shop. The tomato-based sauce was closer to cocktail sauce than marinara, and it had shrimp! Topped with cilantro, it was very tasty.

Lots of expats in Thailand, so we also went to a British-themed fish and chips place on Koh Samui. What was notable to me, was that instead of cod, the fish was barracuda!

Also on Koh Samui, one of our favorite meals came from a German bakery. A loaf of heavy, crusty, dark German bread, muenster cheese, and bottles of cold singha beer, consumed on the beach.

Also, Qobuz finally launched in Finland, so I can give it a shot as well. Good times!

I received an email from Qobuz announcing this news and thought of you @Zojokkeli
Hope you enjoy it!

Hmm with MJ2 getting dropped, Freya+ and Urd in the new chassis style it’s only Gungnir on the older style. Hopefully it sees an update one day!

Bifrost 2 arrived this morning. It's been up & running for only a couple of hours, but sounding very pleasant already!

We get our second vaccine shot tomorrow morning, music with Bifrost in the afternoon. I think that it's going to be a good weekend!

I always had my eyes on a Mjolnir+Gungnir stack but with the Mjolnir being dropped, is the equivalent stack now a Jotunheim+Bifrost Multibit?

I gave Qobuz a try quite a while ago. It was better than Tidal sonically, but the user interface was absolutely awful. If they're made some strides there it may be worth another try.

That combo would sound fantastic, as I’m sure many here would tell you!

And with the money you save, you could also get a Modius in the stack to listen to while the B2 warms up!

Drobo are one of the few external storage systems I had real (lost data) issues with. Always wanted to like them, but in the end it went. I was a RadyNAS supporter until Netgear bought them. I went FreeNAS on big Dell Servers for a while. Now happy (well, I will be when I work out how to map their shares into a Docker container) with QNAP very affordable systems, regular updates and a very good OS.

Drobo pretty much REQUIRES an UPS. It constantly moving data around and does not like random power loss

It has been steadily improving over time. I have both Qobuz and Tidal, and I wouldn't say that Qobuz user interface is any worse than Tidal (they are both kinda bad).

Take a look at the Amazon HD interface and you'll more fully appreciate the Qobuz and Tidal interface.

Amazon HD and Tidal interface seem very similar to me.
