Man, another pretty interesting find. As I get deeper into this one, the more I am enjoying it. There is some excellent work being done here. “Alone” is a beautiful song. Very nice, indeed. I love discovering new stuff! For whatever reason, I am really enjoying the Radiance coming directly from the SA-1 tonight.

Alright, lads and lasses, I am finishing strong this evening. This is probably my favorite album from this amazing group. I won’t get it all in tonight, but that’s OK. More to look forward to tomorrow. This is… “The Astonishing”.
You must try the latest one from Pattern Seeking Animals if you haven’t already. “Only Passing Through”.
I did notice a couple of albums available. They are definitely in the queue. 
Jazzin’ today with the Cascades w/cloth pads and #1 filters installed.
Started with Red Clay, then went to Blue Train, followed by four Donald Byrd albums and now into Makaya McCraven - Deciphering the Message.
Very fun day so far! 
I was able to finish “The Astonished” this morning. I haven’t listed to the Sundara in a while, so I did something fun and hooked them up to this crazy tube hybrid I have, the TA-20. It matches up with the Bifrost 2 extremely well. I just put a new cable on the Sundara and it’s remarkable how nice they sound on this chain. I am always surprised by how much fun I have listening to this amp. Throw in the Sundara and a nice EQ tune and it’s shockingly good, at least to my ear. especially with this technical prog rock groove.

EDIT: As I Was enjoying the Sundara, I looked over and saw the EDXS sitting there. So, I pulled a quick switch… The EDXS is better. In every way! That is no indictment of the Sundara though. I do still enjoy them, and they sound amazing on the bedroom system. But yeah, the XS is super good on the hybrid.
What with all the things flying around the neighborhood these days, I stumbled on this fun and fitting number…
Just bought my first new (to me) album in about a month:
Really loving the Sundaras for easy listening at night.
So comfortable, so effortless. I wish I got into open back over ears sooner.
Good pick and good advice from @AUDave a couple posts later. I dig all of PSA’s albums, but I think Only Passing Through and Prehensile Tales are a cut above.
Rig this morning is the Audeze MM-500s plugged into the Schiit Lyr with the Modi Multibit 2 decoding all the bits from my laptop.
Every now and again I like to revisit a band I haven’t listened to in a while and reacquaint myself with their catalog. Today I’m continuing my run through Anubis’ discography with their 2017 effort, The Second Hand. It starts off a bit slow, but once they hit their stride, this album shapes up pretty nicely.

Here is a link for a free download. I saw this in Steve Guttenberg’s latest video.
It’s an excellent low-beat album, and the soundstage and all the fancy audiophile words apply.
I think it’s odd that David Chesky released these in ALAC, not FLAC or WAV format.
Interesting🧐 plus you can’t beat the price! Thanks for the link.

Thanks, I like Brian…can see why Been Around the World is listed as most played of that album.
Laying down to chill and hopefully catch a few Zs before I have to get up and catch my flight home to SoCal. Right now I have the CFA Supermoons plugged into my Cayin N8ii.
At the top of my queue is a 2004 release from Karcius entitled Sphere. This album has a lot of styles and influences apparent throughout. Give it a listen and you’ll hear everything from prog and metal to jazz, blues, and funk.
