How the LP DAC is treating you?
Still in the box man LOL. Super Sad. Actually should get it out in case itās DOA, just really caught up with work man been trying to bounce back from basically no work. I bought another pair of speakers which are still in the box and I got those two weeks before the LP 
Take your time dude.

I did post it in whatās in the box. Sad truth is I still havenāt used it.
Even worse, I have my NAD M23 still in the box and I also purchased a Cayin dac and the AVM 70 for home theater. All in the box 
Since Black Friday and my last day off work was the first week in December. I am going to axpona next week, really need a break!
On good note, I just bought a 109 pro and I have been using that
I got a new pair of speakers, the infinity rc263. Super phenomenal, I am really astounded by them. Long story short they match up to speakers in the 15k+ range.
Sucks when you got money but no time. The exact opposite of the pandemic

Totally know what youāre talking about. Same boat for meā¦I have gear I only dreamed of when I got into this during the pandemic and practically zero time to listen anymore. Building my dream system for when I retire and can really enjoy it

Indeed, thatās the reason why I buy. I am hoping that by July August Iāll get the show on the road and get a normal schedule. Which means I can start to enjoy all the things I bought.
65 hours a week, sometimes more. Working two jobs I donāt even have a day off. Juggling my girlfriend with all of this is virtually like three jobs.
Itās not to survive but rather to save money since the pandemic and audio really drained me to almost zero. Unfortunately, I did this from 2015 until the pandemic but I guess being younger was way more beneficial. Which is what got me through that fiasco, but originally that money was supposed to get me passive income and thatās what I am working towards now.

Been there, done that. Now, although Iām almost always āon dutyā I actually have perhaps 37 or so hour per week, sometimes less, there is rarely a time that I canāt take off if I want to, and I feel in control. Plus, the money is better than it was when I was killing myself.
Canāt do anything about my age, though. . . .

Thatās the roller coaster you call Life!
But on a positive, itās by choice. Just trying to recoop my losses and my philosophy has always been if I got nothing better to do I might as well make money. Mostly everyone I know, especially in my age group, is just wasted in their free time.
I didnāt even do that during the entire pandemic. Just currently copping with growing pains.
