Oh, those must be the ones used in those Nixie thermometers…

Sometimes I wonder, if the 'no old pictures please' in the thread title means no old pictures of your 'long-owned' gear, or no old pictures in general.
Many of us seem to regularly share new pictures of the same beloved audio chain. Which I personally do not mind, in fact quite enjoy.

In my setup, the literal ‘base of the pyramid’ is the Furman Elite-15i power conditioner, the Audiolab CDT-6000 transport, the Mojo Audio EVO Mystique DAC. These are constants (no intention of replacement) while the headphone amplifiers & headphones are rotated. Thank you all for looking!

Not exactly my real Head-Fi station .. but, since yesterday, I'm just trying a new home mobile music station (living room, garden, sleeping room) ... I will see in the next few months what it will really be, but the first hours playing with this combo seem to be rather promising, based on this ultra light and very airy Grado GS3000e.

Its a frequency visualizer made using in9 nixie tubes

I saw one of those advertised not to long ago - like $1,500 or something?

Pretty sure it’s a different one maybe covers more frequency bands, bought mine for about $250 way back from mr. nixie.

And clocks.

I've also got a nixie clock at my head-fi station, pressie from Mrs Wolf (made in Ukraine). I love it.

Nothing too fancy, but it's a great work from home setup that I love to sit at even when not working. And when I do work I don't want to go to the office where I need to make do with some ANC cans. Covid really brought me back into the hobby

M1 MacBook Air into AOC 4K monitor that acts as a hub, Apple Music lossless into Topping E30, Woo Audio WA6 (first gen, Sophia Electric, RCA 6DE7) and finally the good old HD600 in classic blue marble.

Nixies are cool, IMO. My clock has been on 24/7 (save for a couple household moves) since I put it together over 20 years ago, and all 6 tubes are still working perfectly. I bought two backup sets when I first got it not knowing how long the tubes would last, and the answer apparently is: a long time.

Your case is way more awesome though!

My same experience when I had my friend's Phonitor X for a few days. However Badas did say he use it with Matrix on which I didn't try.

Phonitor sounded transparent and neutral to my ears. A bit thin probably but I wouldn't say dull, which is pretty unflattering. It's very revealing though and as my friend only listen to classical music, he loves it. I listen to 'Keith Don't Go' by Nils Lofgren and it's a pretty darnnnn good performance. So good that I was going to say 'Phonitor don't go' when it came time to return the amp.

Nice! What cable is that? Looks interesting...

Been like this for little over a year now, only thing changing are the headphones on rotation.

Nightwish! I have not listened to them in a while. Will have to this weekend.

Are you going to upgrade your Rossini to Apex? I have the Bartok which is getting a 2.0 software upgrade.

You are in audiophile heaven. Your desk looks so cozy and welcoming!

I love wood =)

I never heard the words "Nixie clock" until today. Live and learn...
