    Hey Mike, glad to hear things are looking up. Good to hear from you again.

    "Appreciation of audio is a completely subjective human experience. Measurements can provide a measure of insight, but are no substitute for human judgment. Why are we looking to reduce a subjective experience to objective criteria anyway? The subtleties of music and audio reproduction are for those who appreciate it. Differentiation by numbers is for those who do not".--Nelson Pass Pass Labs XA25 | Galion TS P75 Pre | Holo Audio Cyan 2 Dac | MIT Shotgun S1 | Puritan Audio PSM136 Pwr Condtioner & Classic PC's | Legend L600 | Roon Nucleus 1 w/LPS - Tubes add soul!

    Sorry to hear of the divorce, Mike. After 44 years, man. I wouldn't even be able to imagine....and I'm only 19 years in with my wife.

    You still dabbling around with different cartridges for the TT?

    Hey Tom, still got my turntable, but not taking much pleasure in it these days with everything going on. Most of my rig is gone and I had to downsize quite a bit. Maybe someday I can rebuild. Pretty much lost everything as a result of this mess.
