What's in the box!

A box in Cyrillic? Hmmm… what could it be? Something old Soviet to replace new Soviet?


I present to you a matched pair of Reflektor Holy Grail '75 6N23P SWGP Silver Shields to replace the JJ 6922s in my Vinnie Rossi preamplifier.

Here’s something new that’s just out of the box – or package. New 8 strand pure silver braided IEM cable with silver connector and silver 4.4mm termination. If I want, I can order other ends – but Audeze supplies a single ended silver cable.

The workmanship on this is excellent, just jewel-like.

I think this is one of the very first silver cables from Hart. I knew James was working on getting the right components and I asked him real nice.

Hart stuff is outstanding workmanship, for sure.

Recently built a Roon Rock. Saved some money with this build vs buying a nucleus plus. Really happy about getting it off my PC. Holo red should be coming in a few weeks (hopefully) and I should see some more improvements using i2S into the Wavelight.

They’re back! Stupid for letting them go before. Thanks @taronlissimore for the sale and quick shipping as always!

I confess I didn’t know what a Roon ROCK was until I went to their website and did some reading.

What NUC is that? Is it in a heat sink of some kind? What did you build it with (spec wise)?

Did you kick the TDP back to 28 or lower on this build? I’ve thought about putting mine in this same case but the warning about using 28 or lower changed my mind. When i’ve adjusted my fan and kicked it back the TDP to 28 on my standard NUC case made it silent. I’d rather run it higher and shift my HQP processing off my mac mini onto this. Any insight is appreciated.

No and not having issues. Don’t use HQP currently tho. Turned off all fan options in bios.

Temps have been fine too.

Rock runs on Linux and it’s really a light load on the nuc. So I don’t think it’ll be anything to worry about. Just make sure temps are good.

I’ll give it a go, if it doesn’t work with HQP the way I want I’ll relegate it back to service as a NAA or set it up with ROCK and migrate Roon from my mac mini.

Technically not in the box as I picked these up in person and was too excited to post before giving them a listen. They might be old news and not sold new anymore but boy do they still take names and kick ass

Considering everything that’s happened this past year, yes, I’ve been very, very good. :smiley:

Break-in starts tomorrow because there wasn’t enough time to start today with all the meetings and going away parties.

This spending is getting pathological.

I spent over 12,000 G’s on audio gear this year. I’m checked in the psyche ward already. We all float down here, brother. Lol.

I may not be up on the slang, but isn’t a “G” a thousand dollars?

So you spent over 12 million dollars on audio equipment?

That’s got to be a new record :wink:

Haha. Yeah “G’s” is grand. 12-thousand.
It is what it is. I set myself up for absolute years of enjoyment though.
Did it while I had the chance. Inflation is incredibly terrible.
