Welcome back Stephen!
Your return might be expensive though... (the XT-2... I bought the XT-1 after your recommendation for my wife).

Welcome home Stephen. I've been so interested in the evolution of your watch collection, (as seen on another web site), added to the fact that I've been mostly absent here too, that I didn't realize you had been gone so long . . . . but maybe I'll join you in a jubilant return to to the wonderful world of Audio Aficionado.

AND I WILL NOT TRADE IN MY FUJI X-T1 FOR A VERY LONG TIME - MAYBE NOT EVEN UNTIL NEXT YEAR . . . . (which is now 28 days away)

Thanks, gents, for all the nice welcome back messages.

Spent the evening last night listening to music with the new AQ Jitterbug...impressive.

But today, I need to get out to do some photography with the Fuji X-T2.
