      Had 2+ weeks with Stjärnja before Kara went back for her FB/black transition. Stjärnja is most excellent. Now let the tube nervosii begin!

        It's my longest owned piece of equipment as well, or perhaps just behind the Utopias. I purposely have stayed away from it for the last couple of weeks since I've had the cyan, it's going to be interesting we're going back here in a few days comparing...

        I don’t know if it does or not. If it doesn’t, it still sounds amazing. But will have to check - thanks @joch

        My longest owned equipment is most of the gear in my sig: Turntable, tonearm, amp and speakers all date back to OG purchase in 1990. The only “new” gear over that time have been a succession in/out of CD players… last change there 10 years ago now, or.. the recent replacement of my Preamp with a Kara/Skoll…

        Yep since A1 with original chip is still A1, but with upgraded chip it becomes the GS...

        Original A1 and chassis. Guy was side-grading to OG/A2…

        Not GS2 (thought about that a bit), but at the price, it was a wash (I could do the chassis upgrade for same delta cash). So starting “cheaper” to get addicted to her.

    Bought “real” hi fi rig in 1990, still using today. 2000+ LP’s. Music tastes: Progressive (Rush, ELP, Pink Floyd, et al), Jazz (especially 1940’s - 1960’s), Classical (Romantic, Classical, some modern).

    Electrical Engineer (1981) that believes good (the right ones!) measurements matter, but sound judged versus real/unamplified/acoustic reality matters more.
