@Wes S you gotta try the 99 problems. Scored a half on the way home.
Now I have 100 problems. The Footscray are killing me right now

Heck yeah! I will add that to my list of strains to try, and right back at ya with the Obama Kush. This Obama Kush, is some of the best I have had, and I have been a daily consumer/connoisseur for the last 25 years.

Edit - I just looked up that 99 problems and it's a Sativa dominant so should be great for some daytime listening. I myself am more of an Indica guy, but I love a good Sativa every now and then to mix it up, and especially for day time use.

Laptop > Tidal hifi > Gumby > MJ2 > Norne Solvine > Clear Pro OG

Conditioner is a Monster Power HTS1650.

Are Tidal>Gumby, Gumby>MJ2, Norne Solvine balanced XLR?

 

[Guidostrunk]

Tidal is usb from laptop. Gumby to Mj2 to Clear is all balanced. My Norne Solvine is balanced.

I'm right with you. It was time for a shake up
Indica for the last 2 months

Really nice setup to only get better. When you replace the laptop with the streamer, that’s (and gives you the chance to replace USB connection with balanced coaxial or with optical? #2 )

 

[Guidostrunk]

Thanks bro!
I'm really looking forward to ditching the laptop.

Seeing the MJ-II atop the Gumby atop the HTS 1600, two things occur to me: (a) the gear does not take up huge space; (b) to have discontinued the MJ for ‘size considerations’ is pure bunk.

It bears consideration: with your music source seriously upgraded (streamer vs laptop), the Footscrays can only soar higher - a delightful prospect

The music us incredible bro! Got a 3rd set of the Footscray coming
Once Sanjiv is cleaned out. Who knows when we'll see them again.

I promise I'm not encouraging hoarding

It's depressing that they discontinued the MJ2. I sometimes wonder if I should snag a backup just in case lol

You need a MJ1 to complete the stack. One of the best SS amps out there!

...not encouraging hoarding, just doing it...time is not money, it is tubes...

Once Sanjiv is cleaned out, who knows when we'll see the Brimar CV4033 KB/FB again.

I hope that that might take a while. Sanjiv seems to be an astute businessman as well as tube aficionado: he realises that he has a live market for the Footscrays, Rochesters, Whyteleafes. He may even be surprised at the Head-Fier, and other, demand for his wares. As long as the supply of ‘flying lead’ tubes lasts or as he has access to that supply and more, Pulse will assemble and market the ‘plug and play’ tubes. This is the type of entrepreneurship that I can support!!

Back ups for your back ups, is how a true tube roller does it. I am right there with ya bro, with my Trio of singles!

I just checked the classifieds and saw a pair of G.E.C. A2900 for sale! Seems they did not make the cut, and the CV4033 Footscray kicked their butt. I hope they sell fast for you Sam!
