At the risk of being redundant I'll just say to ORT. Fosi Audio LC30. 😎

2. The discussion about soundstage started because while it may be an important criterion for some users to listen for, it is also completely subjective and varies more with the recording than with the gear. It is not something that can be designed into gear, although it can be mixed into a recording. Or created through system setup by a user. But hey, if you hear it and you like it then more power to you. Again, trust your own brain.
When the Yggy analog 2 board was released it was a noticable improvement in my room with my equipment and quite noticable. Especially tracks that have multiple instruments mixed in that "appear" in the back, in my case the 7' feet behind my speakers. Noticabley more distinct and separated to not only me but to the other half that puts up with the hobby. :)

Each piece of gear that has stayed in the main system has had made instruments more separate, more distinct, richer and more tightly focused. To me the ability to hear this better and better in the listening space in front of, to the side of, and behind my speakers is the coolest part of the hobby. While everyone is different and looks for different things hobby wise I really believe most in the hobby could hear this and perceive it as improvements in the so called "soundstage" .....more or less.:)

I'm glad you are happy. Enjoy the music.

That, and early exposure to the Cleveland Symphony as part of an "education enrichment" program and my fate was sealed....
During the George Szell era? When I began listening to classical music, I was drawn to his recordings and he quickly became one of my favorite conductors.

Ok. No doubt he is a very accomplished musician. I was just not a fan of his solo endeavors.

Does anyone think my wife will notice the new Gungnir? I tried hiding it under the Freya N 😂

(And yes, it's not a great picture, the sun is not helping at the moment.)

Hmmm...
What Gungnir?
Yeah... all I'm seeing is an aluminum riser for Freya ventilation purposes. Uncertain about my Norse code, but pretty sure 'Gungnir' means heatspacer in Viking lore. 🤣

Thanks! Just trying it out in the 2 channel setup for a few days. Comparing it to Bifrost 2/64. Then it'll go back under to its partner, Mjolnir 2 (a much better hiding place) 😁
