I’m done too... done sitting on the sideline.

If someone would just buy my house in the mountains, I would have a much more interesting response.

The only foreseeable need for me going into the new year may be a new phono cartridge. Toward the middle to end of 2018 I’ll have close to 1500 hours or so on my Dynavector, so I may explore a new Dynavector, Lyra or the Kiseki Purple Heart that Steve just went with. A lot of choices out there to consider.

For me I’ll take delivery on my new Magico M3 speakers at the end of January.
I really wanted to upgrade my preamp and amps but I think I’m gonna enjoy what I have for the next 12 months and “tighten the belt” I will for sure, be purchasing hopefully lots of new music!

Room treatment devices ordered and incoming January or February.
Then a second measuring by our specialist and final dialling in of the speakers. Maybe some headphone gear (Schiit of course!). By the end of next year hopefully this:

For 2018, I am looking at picking up a Schitt Gumby to support my Jotunheim. Because I am having some compatibility issues with my SBT and the Joty [?], I am have to add in a new streamer for my bedroom HP system to the list. I am two sets of Stillpoints Ultra Minis short from having them under all of my components and power regenerator P5)— that could happen, and it’s time to embark on the “new speakers” odyssey. Whether I find what makes me happy before the year ends I don’t know but if I do...

Seriously, like Dan, I'm going to "try" to put the brakes on just a bit. After having spent probably $12-13K in 2017, I need to. Although it certainly isn't an "emergency", I will likely pull the trigger on a 55" Sony UHD TV for the living room. Once I do that, it will be all but inevitable that I upgrade my Oppo BDP-105D Blu-ray player to an Oppo UDP-205. Beyond that, I might upgrade some more of my living room system's cabling to WW Silver Eclipse. Some Stillpoints might be nice too!
