At the moment trying to decide between a Shunyata Hydra Triton V2, and a Synergistic PowerCell 12 UEF SE with Galileo PC. I have until the weekend to decide.

All we have fantastic system,but sure all we have always in mind something new we would like to buy.

I would like to buy CH L 10,80% stereo and could be 20% mono

And yours next purchase?
Another CH X1 for my L1, or....trial of the Verity Monsalvat front end for synergy!
What are your thoughts regarding the benefit of a dedicated X1 for CH L1?

It's of topic - but after 2 years in C19 prison and spending mostly on audio now I would love to buy Business class tickets with Luftwaffe Frankfurt - Buenos Aires and Buenos Aires to Ushai and spend like two months in Patagonia to reset from all the s..t - listening only to nature..

On Friday I received my ISO Acoustics Gaia I with their matching carpet spikes for my Diva's. Ordered from local brick and mortar store.
Let us know what you think… tempted to try on my scala utopias.

Being retired I have to watch my pennies, but I will get my last car in a year or so. If Magico releases a S7 MKII then I might upgrade to that, and if Lumin replaces the X1 then I might get that. Basically, since the stereo is so good now, nothing new, just upgrades. However, whatever I get will be my last.

Don't really see connection between Peru and Patagonia. But yes - they may require in Ushuaia or Bariloche but not really outside at Perito Moreno, El Calafate or Mount Fitz Roy...

I'm looking for a cable from the SUT to the phono for my bordeaux etsuro, but can't find anything I like that's no longer than 50 cm. What do you recommend Gigi?

Having gone from hard core analog two-channel to hard core digital multi-channel, my next purchase will be a “complete” two channel system (albeit digital only source) in a new room. I’m trying to sort out whether that’ll be tubes driving ribbons (or similar), or, solid state driving Accutons (or similar), knowing that I love the sonics of both but never the train shall meet!

Both of these are continued extreme finetuning around the new fundamentals which have fallen into place in the last 2-3 years -- speakers, amplification, isolation and cabling...and a slight detour for headphone system which has now pretty much concluded:

-Upgrading grounding as, by all accounts, Tripoint & Entreq have come a far, far way in the last 10 years.

-Upgrading to extreme bass for that effortless sense of venue, hall space and overall foundation: Funk Audio 18.2 (dual-opposing 18" with 4000 watt amp), possibly a pair.
You should enquire for a Demo of signalgroundsolutions Pinnacle, they are located up in Scotland.
