Currently using the Topping DX7Pro to power my speakers, and running out to the Audio-GD NFB-28 for it's amp when I want to drive my headphones.

Looking to upgrade my headphone amp now, and maybe the DAC later. Considering the Schiit Mjolnir 3.

It's a C9, but it's the 65" - the 77" is my next TV in a few years. Or something bigger, if that's realistically possible by then. I'll still give you full points for trying. :wink:

The "monitor" is a Sony Bravia XR42A90K. Lower max brightness and a stupid firmware quirk that means it'll only do 120Hz at 1080p and 4K (1440p@120 is very nice for gaming) that I'm sure will never be fixed cause... It's a Sony. Oh well, just means I have to figure out GPU- side scaling on modern Radeon cards at some point. I got it for $450 used in perfect shape, so no real complaints. It will pair beautifully with the inevitable PS5 Pro.

Yes, the SP-88 towers are basically just "more". They really make me miss my Martin Logan reQuests, though. Couldn't justify bringing them across the country a couple years ago, as they were in bad shape and needed new panels... But god did I love those things. CLX Arts. One day.

Similarly, the Sumo Andromeda is a really fun amp - James Bongiorno will always be my favorite of the "rockstar" amp designers, RIP - but it always sounds "fuzzy" compared with the Nelson Pass designed Nakamichi PA7-AII it "replaced" (read: that the power company killed). I'll go more up market eventually.
I have a 77" C2, which was TOTL in 2018 when I bought mine. The main difference between the C2 and C9 is additional brightness on the latter. I dial back the brightness on mine to begin with...really couldn't use the additional brightness of the newer one.

These OLEDs have spectacular pictures IMO. I adjusted mine "by eye" but it looks so fine that I didn't bother hiring someone to calibrate it.

Bought one of the last LG with 3D. Wonderful panel. Hopefully 3D makes a comeback. 🙃

I will never own another LCD. They're garbage. Thankfully I think burn-in-free OLED is only a couple years away at this point.

He might still be right... let's see what Sony does with Audeze. The LCD-5 might be the last LCD to buy. Hopefully Audeze releases an OLED-6.
