2015 has started off pretty rough for me as I managed to tear my ACL and meniscus in my right knee which required reconstructive surgery. I have been pretty much offline during this past month other than to check in and try to keep up with things here when I can. I finally was able to have my...

One of my newly discovered favorites is Fort George Brewing out of Astoria, Oregon - I'm liking everything that I've tried so far, especially the Vortex IPA!

Thanks to Dan and Kristin at ModWright, I have a KWI-200 integrated amp with both DAC and phono modules installed to demo and listen to for a few days in my system. I will also be setting it up for my dad to listen to in his system (he currently has McIntosh MC402/C46/MVP-881BR and a Clearaudio...

Apparently a cross between a Classic 2 and Classic 3 - very interesting! Retail is $4k. I received this in my email from SoundStage Direct...
