My wife has been busy in her pottery shed making tiny bells. We both like to give handmade items.Christmas is coming!
The Gnomes are coming to a listening session this morning!!
LOL!
Once were Cheer Leaders for North Carolina!
I am happy for you! I looked at the Freya N and I like the looks but I honestly have no clue what a preamp really does for me and thereby why I would need one. Of course, I have always had receivers at home or in the 70s, the all-in-one turntable/receiver with speakers. I think the Freya N is very nice looking and was tempted but again, I doubt I would know what to do with it except ultimately give it to a family member.So I sat on the idea of getting one - SWMBO was not amused (she's über practical and I love and respect her for it) - and I watched last evening as the last one went. Buh-bye, missed opportunity on one of the best deals on the Schiit closedo out page.
But...when I went to bed around 11:00 PM ET, I saw 7 magically appear on the site! Hmmm....
<waits patiently> SWMBO: "If there's any left you should get one"
There were 3 left when I placed my order 10 minutes ago (not that I was checking. Gosh no!)...then there was 1 a minute ago... AND NOW THERE ARE 9??? What?
(I'm not complaining. I'm thrilled to have one on the way!)
I’m still in mourning over this last Friday. First they lose the football game to arch-rival NC State, and 20 minutes later they lose the basketball game to Iowa State. Was a Black Friday in the most literal sense.There are much more important things in life, like who wins when the North Carolina basketball team comes to town next Wednesday night.
IU’s best player has been in and out of the games with an injured right hand so NC should be in the game.I’m still in mourning over this last Friday.

Hopefully they get their mojo back by next Wednesday.

I will get back to you later, I saw plenty of great tubes on EBay recently. Just remember you do not need matched quads. I like many brands except for Genalex in this tube type. Football now.
I'n not supposed to be looking at tubes either, but I am open to recommendations and suggestions for my Freya N. Y'know, for "future reference".
I'm just happy most of the SEC has been a complete basket case this year upsetting everyone at work, except the one Georgia fan. Add in The Ohio State losing to Michigan to get the one Ohio fan upset and its been a good year. Now TCU needs to beat Michigan to get the one last college football fan at work and everyone will be heartbroken.I’m still in mourning over this last Friday.

You win the Holy of Holies. The Sacred NoK
aka, The Nod of Knowledge. Why? Because other than getting the crap beat out of me throughout High School by football payers, I know nothing about football. Actually, I hate the game and those in it. When the NFL went on strike in the mid 80s the San Diego Chargers, like all teams, had tryouts for a temporary team. I never played but we had a fellow at our gym that had played before and was quite athletic. He was going to tryout and told me (we did NOT get along) that he thought I should try out because he would make me look like a fool when we lined up opposite one another. He was a guy that caught passes or so I recall.
Thanks! I do like great music and fiddling with my Schiit and other bits in the audio chain. The Freya N will work nicely in my Library/reading room. I like to listen with wired cans on a 10-foot cable, so I'll be able to adjust the volume and switch between the Asgard 3 and the MagPie (which will flip between my play office and library), and maybe an Urd eventually with the Freya's remote. This will mean I should upgrade from a Lokius to a Loki Max...I am happy for you!

It ain't easy bein' green and shallow.

The good ones can get pricey, I have none I want to relinquish at this time myself.
