Any piece of equipment you currently dream of ?


Which can be within your reach.

For me it’s Studer deck. I just can't justify the expense, at least not yet.

I love your description of your workshop.

However, wouldn’t woodworking be dusty affecting the hifi?

I am curious how you decided to add the Billie and the Hegel 190 to your list. I am interested in both and I wonder if I could pick your brain. (They are outside of my budget so whenever they hit the used market)

I imagine the Hegel and the Billie to be very different. I too have Evokes and a pair of Vandersteens. (courtesy of Mr, @tomic601 angel)

@grislybutter Well, I plan to have the two independent of each other but under one roof and the workshop would have its own dust collection and mini-split. I primarily use hand tools (because they're more affordable than tons of power tools) but also I enjoy the manual labor aspect. 

As for the Billie and Hegel, I'm intrigued by the Billie's typology of the tube pre-amp while the Hegel is certainly more neutral. I've seen a few used Hegel 190s and they sound great. I haven't heard the Billie so that would be a true leap of faith. 

Of the Evokes and Vandersteens, do you have a preference between the two? 

@bipod72

I love your description of your cabin retreat too.

You need music in the shop :)

 

Probably about 40 pieces I’d love to have, but I haven’t hit a lottery yet!

A new house with room for a new listening room to support Rockport Lyras and all the flagship Boulder gear to go with it.
