What equipment might you buy or sell in 2024?

I'm on the same path. True Gold with black grills and black diodes/hardware. Placing my order in June with a 14-16 week lead time. Apparently, True Gold takes about 6 weeks to cure.

 

NONE.

 

Seems I'll be lucky this year, as last year; and the year before that; no buying.

 

Preordered the Musical Paradise MP-701 MK2 v3 preamplifier, hope to have it first week of May

 

I heard a MC Hana at Rick58's yesterday - was VERY nice. In a Technics.

 

I would have liked to have joined you guys, I'm positive you both had a good time

The Hana is still running in and getting better with every side, extremely smooth and pleasing so far

 

If I had the money, I would sell my Accuphase DP-570 CD player and buy an Accuphase DP-770!

 

Sell
MiJ SL1200GR
With some goodies, Isonoe feet, tinted cover, wood plinth, fluid damper, boxes, oem dust cover, oem feet, oem cable, mounted Goldring E3, maybe an aftermarket mat.
Cheap
Soon

 

Congrats - the V iteration is to die for. So many changes since the 1's. FYI -- every Friday, Wilson updates their production predictions (schedules more or less). Mine were initially scheduled for 1st week in June & now according to recent email from them to my dealer, the ship date is 10 May.

Very Pretty Tom:

Best to you sir,

Bob

 

I've been using Amazon Basics speaker and RCA cables. Hoping I can obtain something better in the future.

 

Going all in - just bought these puppies (retail is crazy $50,159.98 for 2M).

Best to all,

Bob

 

What did you upgrade too?
I have the later Moon Simaudio 310LP and 320S PSU incarnation. Very attracted to the 610LP and, of course, the 810LP!

 

I had a big splurge towards the end of 2023 on new equipment (the first for years), so it's likely to be a clear-out during 2024.

I've just got rid of an Audio Technica AT-666EX vacuum mat: next one the list will be all the other accessories I've picked up over the years that find themselves sitting around being unloved.

 

A Martin acoustic.

 

Nice which one? Always drooling over those guitars.

 

Recently came by a nice preowned Lab 12 Suara, it's worked it's way into the setup nicely.

 

The 310LP and 320S PSU combo. Saw a deal I couldn’t refuse.

It shipped! FedEx priority
Expected Monday

 

Ember Pearl takes 12 weeks to dry/set.

 

And you told me you were cooked. Ha!

 

Hard to resist that generous trade-in policy. I know.

 

May I inquire about your whereabouts on Esster Sunday? Anywhere near LA Cali?

 

First I have to sell some gear.
Then I want to add another integrated amp to my collection - perhaps something from Gato Audio, Hegel or Heaven 11 - and another pair of speakers - this is a more difficult challenge… as I want a more full range speaker that works in my small room.
Maybe something from Dali…

 

I was wrong about not buying anything also this year; i bought a spare AT nos needle for $20. Sorry about that.
