Will do. Have to say the S20 is a DDC so it won’t be exactly the dilemma you described but close enough… The antipodes stack replaced my Auralic Aries G1 bridge.
My Happy Place – now with headphone management!
So… a Sunday project, adding headphone hangers for my DCA Aeon X Closed and HiFiMan Ananda 'phones. Two long wood screws, two pieces of Sched 40 pvc pipe, two lengths of foam pipe insulation, and some paint, et voila!
I also added two spring-loaded cable clips to hold the jacks for the headphone cables, visible in the last pic above.
Another recliner-side headphone setup! I love this idea, congrats on a quality relaxing music station!
Also love the headphone hangers!
Those look like they belong in a nightclub.
Current setup:
Rega P10 → EAT E Glo Petit Hybrid Tube Phono Preamplifier → LTA MZ3 → LCD-5 | Utopia | Vérité Closed
Not pictured is the LCD-5 by the computer.
And a gratuitous shot of the whiskey shelf:
Any Springbank fans here?
(Computer details here…)
Great whisky shelf. Truly. I just don’t have space for that kind of display. Sure, we found places to display lots of early American pattern glass, and a few sets of depression glass, and some china that my wife likes, but that about finishes off the storage. I do collect the pattern glass - Seneca Loop, pre-civil war variety is leaded - and it was basically early bar glass. So I do like to have my drink in a glass AT LEAST 10 times older than the beverage.
But considering the season, and my new employee is taking off March 17 for “previous plans” I just picked up a bottle of Black Bush.
OK, my plans to come from Germany to California in the fall for a two-week vacation are set, now I’m of course still waiting for a “personal invitation” to have a drink and a cultivated conversation with an audiophile exchange
In the meantime, I content myself with delicious wine!
By the way, if anyone is assuming I’m a true Campfire Audio fan………… well, you’re right
The primary rig got updated recently. The digital front was upgraded to fiber optic, a SOtM streamer, LPS snd USB regen, were added to get me off the laptop, the DAC was upgraded to a Sonnet Pasithea, and lastly a few of the cables were upgraded too.

And people say audio is an expensive hobby…
This is my “test and buy dealer” nearby, where I buy two to three new delicacies for my inventory once a year:
Wow! - That is a nice collection of Campfire IEM’s!
Is that a Polaris II - The blue one, right next to the wooden box?

This was an Andromeda Special Edition for the Japanese market, the MW10.
Ah, nice - so 3 variations of Andromeda in your collection
I have the Andromeda 2020 and love it.
If I was able to get the CK Pacific Blue I would definitely get a second one!
Where’s the Susvara!?
Nice setup! Clean and neat.
So VERY far above my pay grade…
One can dream, though
Very nice, beautiful setup Rhodey!
What’s the cable for your Utopia?
