I picked this order up. Two bourbons are in the middle were ordered online as I'm running low. I had to get these before Trump f?cks it up for Canada. The 2 single malt Scotches were last minute purchases as I have neglected my Scotch selection over the last couple of years.

Exelent choices how do you find the Angles Envy got a bottle I’ve yet to open .
 
Nice choices 3db ! Angles Envy 'Rye' is my favorite go to for 'special occasion' Manhattan's, never tried their bourbon. As for Scotch whisky, I too love the peat and your 12 year Tomatin is a good every day sipping whiskey. I toured the distillery while I was in Scotland in '17. If you save your pennies perhaps you could buy this, one of the most expensive casks around ..........

Picked up this sign for one side of my listening room. In blue it matches the color of the lava lamp on the other side. It also matches the blue lights on the Rotel equipment. Got it on eBay. They have a lot of other manufacturers signs and you can even have one custom made. Pretty cool.

New to me (a.k.a. used) Luxman M-900U power amp. It'll be a few weeks, but once I sell my L-509X integrated amp, I'll have my dealer's demo model matching pre-amp, the C-900U, and that will have a full warranty.

Congratulation! Looks very cool and I’m sure it sounds great. You are inspiring me to pull the trigger on a Mc power amp. I‘ve wanted a Mc with the blue meters since I was a kid and I’m not getting any younger. My wife is supportive as always of my hobby/obsession which is one of the reasons I married her. Enjoy your new system!

You really should try to get over here and hear it. The L-509X is officially up for sale at $6200 and has a factory double box, both made of double thickness cardboard with foam cushion inserts.
Nice. I am sure it will go quick at that price. I know I need to get there. The pup is keeping me close to home for a couple more months. He is protesting now wanting to go to the park. We meet folks at 10 and he is not happy waiting.

I'm happy for you if you like those giant blue meters with the backlit green logos. Myself, just not my cuppa tea. At all. Perhaps if they were also outstanding performers I could overlook it, but know there's a few members of my Luxman Lovers group who moved from McIntosh to Luxman for the purer sound.

The McIntosh stuff does have one feature to admire, that's the retention of high resale value.
