I wonder is there a vaccine for that? Oh better I stay quiet, don't want to give Fauci and Bill Gates any ideas! :ROFLMAO:

£800+ today doesn't go very far, I would definitely explore the second hand market. Perhaps mix and match with new and used. I had a quick browse on eBay and I've picked the following: Disclaimer WiiM Ultra not on market yet but expected to be released in June 2024...

The nearly all recordings are done in digital. It's Complicated :giggle:

Hats off to this young lady from Norway, this has got to be the ultimate PC build. This reminds me of a scene in Blade Runner. View: https://youtu.be/t03rmc-prJo?si=-S1ErYzCRVZDhiyS

So many threads about turntables, kind of felt left out, I don't have one of those rotating biscuit tins and I so want to get into the Groove and here's my Spin :) I know, I know, it's not all about me but I thought I share my thoughts. It's no secret I love my DACs, kind of embrace streaming...

It's a shame how crazy GPU prices have become over the last few years, there are some positives though, selling your old 1060 should fetch you a decent price. I think the 4070ti Super hits the sweet spot, does everything and more without unnecessarily extending your budget to a 4080ti or 4090...
