I have an Urd, and just bought Yggy GS2, so I’ll go with Mjolnir 3!

Good early history of the Big Easy.

ugh. This is tough choice for me.
highest use case for me is the Yggy GS2 because I moved my BF2/64 into my office stack because I use it 8 hours a day. That leaves my Modius AKM as my main home rig speaker setup, so the Yggy would definitely be welcome there!
But the MJ3 because I want to hear the damned thing. It would replace the Jot2 in my main home speaker setup, so I don’t think it is as important for me as I really like my Jot2.
Yggy for the win

Stationed in Nebraska (Offutt AFB, Bellevue, NE) during the early 80's, we were close to the waterbird flyway from Canada to southern US. No Canadian geese, but millions of snow geese. Limited out on birds every trip (as I recall, 6 geese).
Remember Buba in Forrest Gump describing all the ways to cook shrimp? I was the same with the abundance of geese (which I love). I cooked them every way, and gave away many. Great memories.

Of the three choices, go with Yggy+ GS2. Skip the Unison upgrade to save a few bucks— might be a new interface module in the works given the replaceable rear sub-panel was part of the yggy+ chassis upgrade
Asgard 3 for now with Susvara (likely another run of MJ3 in the works too)

My Granddad had some good stories of Bavaria. It was during the '40's, and he was doing a job for his country. He wasn't keen on the locals in uniform, but loved the countryside (and the beer).Sir, I was born and raised in Bavaria.

New time, new era. I mean no disrespect to you or your county.

Business Class tickets work to solve that (most of the time)
when I was 11 ( 1975ish ) my Mum and Dad ran the local youth club - the club got invited to a rifle range and a weekend field camp with the local Territorial Army - My Mum then displayed total Marksmanship with a Lee-Enfield .303 bolt action Rifle - ( guns are basically not legal to be privately owned in the UK ) much to the astonishment of all assembled not least the Sergeant who was in charge - I suppose you will now demonstrate how to field strip the weapon ? he said , - My Mum duly obliged and stripped and reassembled the rifle correctly !! Sergeant enquires ' where the bloody 'ell did you learn to that ? ' My Mum replies ' At Convent School when I was 11 years old ! there was a rifle range in the basement ! 'When I was much older than 12 in the 1980's, I got to drive the Wienermobile around a parking lot. Nobody wants to make that up, so you know it's true too.

Myself, born Wormerveer, 'water' raised in Westzaan (we are called Kroosduikers = Duckweed divers) as a youngster we played often on and around water. A good 70% of NL shall be ph*cked when the water is coming:
So enjoy the music!

Yep - here in sunny Cambridgeshire much of the Fenlands were drained by Dutch engineers in the 1600's - Corneleus Vermuyden take a bow !! We too will be needing some waders before too long !! this map clip from 1662 - incidentally - Oliver Cromwell resided in St Ives and was schooled in Huntingdon - My Work is located at Swasy- ( Swavesey now )Myself, born Wormerveer, 'water' raised in Westzaan (we are called Kroosduikers = Duckweed divers) as a youngster we played often on and around water.

I have a question.
No, I think it's more of an observation…
Either way, it has the potential to start a class war, so please try to keep your responses somewhat civilized, mkay? Not that I will, or anything… ;p
I don't fly much. And the few times that I do, it's usually intercontinental. So maybe it's different on domestic flights.
So, whenever I'm on one of those long haul flights, I always try to get seats all the way in the back. (My personal favorite is the last outer row in a 747. Only two seats abreast, nice and quiet-ish, little to no foot traffic, close proximity to the source of those stale pretzels, no one's kicking your seat back or complaining about your reclining the entire flight, and by far the most shoulder space in economy.) That means that when I debark one of those long haul flights, I have to walk along nearly the entire length of both the economy and business class cabins, and I'm also able to take a peak into 1st.
And whenever I do, I always see the same thing: A somewhat messy economy class cabin, a mostly neat 1st class one, and an absolute pigsty of a business class.
So, based on that, I'd rather remain the poor-adjacent church mouse that I am or get stinkin' rich somehow. Because if the way the average intercontinental passenger leaves behind their personal space of the previous 12 hours is any indication, the upper 10% must be the worst place you could find yourself in, just crawling with egocentric pigs!
How's that for some armchair philosophizing!
Am I wrong, though?
Have at it!
(…while I slowly back away from the dumpster fire that I have just lit…)

Having recently waxed lyrical about my MJOLNIR 2 and the long-life tubes I use ... today, the left channel appears much quieter when compared to the right. Before I start playing around with the tubes, would any more knowledgable person say that this is probably an indication that the left-hand tube is probably defunct ? ... rather than any other problem ?
