looking at the trend lines , I'll pause and check for year 2030 - will this be ~$245,000 upgrade?

Moved into new house with a dedicated home theatre and listening room. Didn’t have to add much in terms of gear other than a 4 channel arcam power amp and m&k in ceiling speakers.

Epson ls800 for living room with Epson ust screen

The Nagra system came together - got the 300b power amp and phono stage from fellow forum members.

Headphone endgame done with susvara and holo may.

2025 - need a couple of dacs and get rid of all the gear I’ve been hoarding!

Lovely! Tannoy + Nagra should be quite a combination. How big is the room they are in?

That makes it 4 Tannoys in bangalore that I'm aware of.

I do it every Fri myself. I can't have the house help cleaning the room as it is damn congested

The tannoys are set up in the living room so fairly large space - about 17" long and open on the sides.
