I was selling the real deal on SNA bro!
Anyway, keen to hear your thoughts.
haha, yeah. Saw the CMA Twelves you had listed. Had some Drop credits to use up so thought to get the SA-1 from them.
Double delivery day!!!
Delivery 1) VC Iberico stabilized. I think my 11 year old was more excited than I was.
Delivery 2) Mad Scientist Tube Toppers and other black magic goodies from New Zealand complete with fine NZ orange chocolate. Gotta love the guy.

Interesting . . .what are those “toppers” supposed to do, other than look hideous? 
TBH, I have no idea. But is minimally invasive and came recommended from a friend, the Internet.
Here’s the link to the tube toppers description.

Thanks for the link, but that’s a hard pass from me. I like to let tubes do their thing and let them breathe.
Party hats for the tubes!

Don’t want unplanned little tubes showing up.

Sigh…an impulse purchase because the Elac Debut 6.2 is a mainstream icon and Amazon had them at a ridiculously low flash sale price on Prime Day. They may not be with me for long, but can certainly be resold for more than what I paid.

Wow, they’re not even pretending to give any details are they? They’re just like “yeah, it makes your bass bassier.” lol
Ugh, and now I want them.
edit: now I found this: Magic Tubes (madscientist-audio.com) They’ve got to be punking us, right? lol

Come on folks.
Magic darko weights, door stopper tube voodoo. You might as well hang quarts and amethyst crystals above your transformers to attune their audiophile energies.
Just my take on it. Have fun.

Do you have a recommendation for where I can get good quality quartz that makes my digital less hazy?
Does the color of the amethyst matter? Clarity? Or is location most important?

I’ll report back how much bassier the bass and sibilance is after my Shaman blesses the rest of the stack. Sage earpads for the win.

I don’t know about all that tube stuff but my “Bluetooth Maximizer” outfit works wonders with my wireless earbuds. Increases range, bassier bass, treblier treble , much more stagier… Only $19.95 or two for $50

Those are gorgeous headphones. Hope it’s a great pairing with that amp!

The colour is the most important thing to remember when dealing in Audio Crystals. It greatly affects the harmonics.

Remember to avoid pink crystals. They’re for MQA and you need appositely designed mounting jewelry in order to use them at their best.
