That's good to know and I'm happy if you are, enjoy!
To me it`s astonishing that you are able to sell these devices so reasonably priced. Especially the X-Bass is really useful when no PEQ is available with some bass-light headphones. And it`s always nice to have a good old analogue volume knob too :) :thumbsup: :beerchug:

I already sent him 8 big boxes of GE tubes to relabel

Way! And they're only $0.0000000003 (USD) each, instead of $45k like Bitcoin! Of course they're probably not even worth that. :smile:

Currency is a: (i) unit of account; (ii) medium of exchange; (iii) store of value. GEcoin is the -trifecta, it meets none of the above…👏🤪🎉🍾

No way. I already sent him 8 big boxes of GE tubes to relabel as something desirable, and I have the tracking numbers to prove it. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
…not so fast…BB will relabel the tracking numbers to cover his tracks 🤫

That is a clean and inviting set-up! Thanks for sharing. What is generating the album art and controls, your PC or some other source?

Thank you!!

I set up a Raspberry Pi with the official 7" display, loaded with Ropieee. Then on Roon (powered by an Intel NUC) I grouped the Hugo 2+2go with the Raspberry Pi, so technically there's a music stream going to it, but its for the sole purpose of showing the album art. Not the most elegant set-up, but I preferred how Ropieee shows album art vs Roon sending it to a Chromecast-enabled display. [Edit > Plus I get playback controls on the RPi!]

My wife got me a spectacular coffee / espresso machine for my last birthday.
Okay, sorry to divert this thread, but I must know what machine you are using. I bought a Breville (used) a few years back and it is amazing.

Thank you very much @riverground ! :)

But there is also a dark side to it :see_no_evil:

Had to buy and mount a large (1,20m) cable managment thing under the tabletop to hide most of the cable an powerbrick mess. And you better don`t look at it from its back side... However, the monitor arms help alot to keep things clean when you look from the front.

I've not come across Nubert actives before or seen any reviews. They look great, like the connectivity. :relaxed:
