For those who like the Steampunk band Abney Park [ https://www.abneypark.com/ ], they've just released a 7-1/2 hour compilation of the instrumental background music from their songs (there are some spoken word bits, just not the sung lyrics) -

Abney Park performed a 1-1/2 hour Live Stream Concert last Saturday -

Here's what I was talking about. This is basically what I would build. These are prebuilt though. You can set up a Roon endpoint with a Raspberry Pi or many single board computers. I've even setup a Raspberry Pi, speaker amplifier HAT, Speakers and setup with touch screen to use in any room. Works really well.

Tina was a big proponent of lgbtq community. While folks respect her chart success, her stance on all humanity was really the important aspect of Her authentic self.

@Richsvt I picked up a pair of openbox Drop Panda x THX from a guy on head-fi. I forgot how great these are.
How's the clamping force? That was one of the things I hated with the Senn M4, couldn't wear it for more than 30 minutes. Sound was decent but if you can't keep it on your head, what's the sense? How's the sound with the Panda?

I've got some RCA and Westinghouse 5670/2C51 tubes coming in from Tubes Unlimited shortly for my Vali 2. Was hoping to see them before the weekend but, oh well. Have some down time around Memorial Day to just sit and listen. Would love to try a WE 396A but the prices are a little too high for me right now.
