Last seen tomorrow? Guess that means a scheduled post-been following this forum a long time and haven’t seen that. Aegir 2 anyone?

This is the content that I'm here for .
It's maddening, as a Canadian, when I grab a recipe online and invariably it's from a USA site. All the measurements are in Freedom, and all the packaging up here is in Science.*
*To keep it generally on-topic, I've listened to all of Neil Young's "Archives Volume 2" since I've added the Gungnir Multibit A1 to the stack. Sublime. It's the best I've heard some very familiar songs. The concert recordings were like I was in the venue. Next up for the stack: A Hifiman Ananda Nano headphone, unless someone can suggest an alternative at a similar pricepoint.

Wow. It seems that the device formally known as 'The Gadget' may have few surprises in store.
I predict that there will be big advancements in managing the time domain.

?? ??Remember, it is not always about raw power and large speakers are often far more easy to power than large ones.

FTFYAs they drop below 3 ohm, they don't pair well with dual-Aegirs, though. Works fine, but not ideal. Especially not if your room regularly gets above 80º Stupid / 27º Science. And the bass isn't as tight as it could be with those speakers.

As someone who has spent 2/3 of his life living in a country where ºC is the norm, and 1/3 in one where ºF is, I believe that I am well qualified to say that Fahrenheit makes a lot more intuitive sense for air temperatures than Celsius does. But you do you, of course.

Lee Michaels played his B3 through a wall of Acoustic Control 260 guitar amps and his bass pedals through 360 bass amps.
Saw him live at Fillmore West with Frosty the drummer. They were so loud my ears start ringing just thinking about it.

All this B3 talk, and no love for Wild Bill Davis?

Love it!*
*The uploader made it unavailable in my country. I had to fire up a VPN and refresh the page in order to watch it. The irony is not lost on me.

Consider the DCA Aeon series, a good match for Asgard 3.This is the content that I'm here for .

Gotta get some plankton out of those DCA Aeons. Lyr+ in tube mode was the best pairing with the Noires for me though

So, I bought a thing.
The background is that 13 years ago a devastating tornado struck the town of Goderich in the Canadian province of Ontario on the Lake Huron shore. A TV/radio sales and repair shop that had been around since the 1940's was heavily damaged and never reopened. The owner died last year and his widow asked the guy I bought this from to help get rid of things in the basement, in storage, etc. Based on the insert, this case is from 1972. and was never used in the field. I don't think it was ever opened for 50 years. It's in great shape, but it needs some light cleaning. Any recommendations for what to use to clean it so I don't damage it? There doesn't appear to be any mildew.
Anyway, also in the lot of things and stuff was a large pile of NOS tubes. Buddy had no idea their value until he looked them up on line. He sold the entire batch for a decent amount to a guy from Detroit. I missed it by a month. None of the tubes were tested, but still.

Thank you! I'll take a look to see where I can buy it here.
Edit: Huh! Direct from Drop.com their version of the DCA Aeon is US$429. From Drop on Amazon.ca it's CDN$1,059.99. The exchange rate says it should be CDN$579. Even the Hifiman Ananda Nano's are CDN$925. What a blatant ripoff!
