After I gave up trying to get along with my Sonus Faber Aida's, I decided to just return them, and get something different.

 

Ended up choosing the JBL M2's, some of the best measuring loudspeakers you can get. Far from the most expensive loudspeaker I've ever owned or listened to, but I think I'll enjoy them.

Also had to order the Crown I-Tech 5000HD amplifiers for them, which has all the DSP and crap for them, as they have no internal crossover like most passive loudspeakers do. Hence the need for very specific DSP and amplification for them.

 

All in all, £26,199 worth of gear, but it's for some of the most accurate and low distortion speakers you can buy, for quarter of the price of my Sonus Faber Aida's.

 

My PMC Fact Fenestria's might end becoming my listening speakers again, with the M2's ending up replacing my current stereo monitoring setup. Not quite sure yet.

 

Also ordered some speaker cable for them, as I don't actually have any left over.

Main speaker setup is now;

 

Mini DSP SHD Studio -> 2x Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC's (fed by AES/EBU, one feeds the left sub and main, the other feeds the right side) -> 2x Neumann KH420 + 2x Neumann KH870

 

(Having a totally seperate DAC for each channel is game changing for sound quality)

A SuperMicro X10SLQ. Have been trying to build a server in my house, but a bad BIOS update nerfed the old FM2+ motherboard I was going to use. I happen to have an i3-4150 and 8gb of DDR3 memory hanging around and the board was cheap on eBay in new “open box” condition from a bulk purchase.

 

Plus, this chipset supports virtualization so if I dig up an old 4770 or something I could try that out as well.

@handymanshandle C00l 🤣

Do you just collect VHS or do you actually watch them? Do you speak/at least understand French?

I love collecting them, on occasion I watch them. 

I barely know French, but then again, I also don't know Japanese, yet I own a few Japanese tapes.

A pile of HP business SFFs (EliteDesk 800 G1 DM). Well technically not a purchase since I have been loaned them for checking what works and what doesn't and use that to teach someone to take parts from several broken systems to make a couple of working ones... except there's a problem, they're all working just fine aside from 2 of them having a slightly wonky contact on the network port.

 

All have 8GB RAM, some have an i5-4590T 4C/4T and some an i5-4570T 2C/4T. All have a 2.5" SATA SSD, some 128GB and some 256. 

 

These things are actually great, they are incredibly snappy and responsive both on linux and Windows, boot super fast, are decently powerful and 6 USB3s is great. They also have 2 m.2 slots, one x4 for SSD and one x1 for a wifi card. They're taken apart in literally 2 minutes with all the same large Torx screws so cleaning was a quick job. Pretty interesting how serviceable, well built and performing business machines are...

 

I will hopefully get to keep one or 2, they would make great servers/media players, only 15W when idle...

I got a new color IPS screen for my original black and white DMG Gameboy.  I also got it a clear red shell with new glass screen.  Been having some depression and this gave me something constructive to do, and install a new screen in my Gameboy since I'd like to play some of my games again.

 

What a gorgeous mod!! 

 

And high five for depression tech projects. Having one going when I start to go bad really helps I find. Hope you feel good again soon.

Last "major" purchase. Think I'm just gonna upgrade my hot air station soon to something from a more reputable brand. Thinking of ST-862D.

Also a part picker with dedicated pump.

Cooler Master MM710

The Mouse is super light at just 53g, it has a 16K DPI shutter but I will just keep it at 3200 which I found is the most comfortable to use and the honey comb mesh feels nice and will help keep my right hand cool during gaming hopefully because my hands tend to sweat especially in summer. Forward and back button on the left side are a must have for me for productivity and gaming. 

You can take a look at all of the Tech that I own and have owned over the years in my About Me section and on my Profile.

 

I'm Swiss and my Mother language is Swiss German of course, I speak the Aargauer dialect. If you want to watch a great video about Swiss German which explains the language and outlines the Basics, then click here.

 

If I could just play Videogames and consume Cool Content all day long for the rest of my life, then that would be sick.

3x Dell UltraSharp 27 Monitor - U2719D x 3 (1440p IPS monitors)

These will replace my current 3x Asus VS228H-P (1080p IPS monitors)

I know these are 60hz monitors BUT these were the best I could find that have the ability to daisy chain, and they are very nice. These use Samsung panels btw.
