What are you currently saving for?

Rotel CD11 Tribute first.

Geshelli Labs J2 next.

Project VCE next

Fluance RT85 & Emotiva DRS1 next

Then a nice headphone.

Yeah for what those cost used are probably out of my price range- I did read somewhere that one guy did not like his dsd to 20 upgrade because it lost some of its smoothness/richness. Based on the fact it started as a Burr Brown with the OG then switched to Sabre, it sounds like clarity and detail was the goal with the next iteration. A review I found comparing them the guy said the twenty was better than the dsd, but you don’t know what you don’t know as he thought it couldn’t get better than the DSD version. Depending what you’re after, sounds like the DSD version would be the sweet spot for me

Quicksilver Headphone Amp
-I would have bought it months ago, but my ā€œlocalā€ Hi-Fi store says that Quicksilver has their transformers on backorder until this late January! So hopefully by the paycheck, I will finally have what I want.

A record cleaning machine. I’m not exactly sure which one to go with, but I know I need one.

Well since I fucked up this recent month, I will have to save up again for an another fucking RAM, for I did not read clearly that I will only receive a single stick of RAM of 32GB instead of 2x16GB. I was supposed to save up for a 1TB 970 EVO Plus and the Tin HiFi T3 Plus but those are pretty much gone for now, therefore I will have to get an another 32GB stick of that RAM, since I cannot live and tolerate only using a single stick for my rig.

A fuck up that makes me save up more, what an idea.

I’m kind of all over the map. I thought I wanted a new DAC, but I think that is more a longer-range goal. I seem to be closing in on the transducers. As much as I love these Triangle BR02 speakers, I would love to move up to a speaker that has a 6-inch driver. The enclosure can’t be much bigger than the BR02, so that limits my options somewhat.

If not speakers, one more headphone would be cool. I would like to add a planar to the collection but I’m not sure which way to go. I’m leaning towards the Arya.
