I'm nearing the end of the waitlist for my Decware Zen amp ... can't wait to bring that sound to my listening space!

I have the Vidar 2, Freya +, Lokius and Polk r200 with two subs. First purchase of audio equipment in over 20 years. Extremely happy.

Never been a better time to be an 'audiophile, ' from a products perspective. More options than ever at more price points than ever, it seems. And at a quality that is pretty amazing. Thanks, Steve!

[thomass.]

Well Steve, I am officially naming you the best audiophile of 2023!

[zounds]

You helped me decide to get a Vidar 2 earlier this year. And I love it, so thank you.

Another great year Steve. You are one of the hardest working YTers out there, and your advice is so thorough. See you on the other side! 🌲

You review reminded of a Futterman amplifier that I had rebuilt. My customer was driving it with huge horned speakers. I had tested the speakers on my own system before returning them and they were amazing but different than anything I’d used before, even with the high feedback levels to lower their output impedance.

Dear Steve! Allways enjoy your reviews! You have opened my eys and ears to new products. Wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new hifi year!

[superdougie]

Steve, you're the best. I listen to your channel working from home and really enjoy having our hobby being so wonderfully covered by you and Jay and Darko and Zero, and God knows how many you're the best!

I recently purchased a Van Alstine DVA SET 500 amplifier, price $2799. It's a new model this year, and I highly recommend it.

[zenguitar]

I've been saving for the Billie. Glad to see it made it on your Best of 2023 list! ;)

Just received our Zen about a week ago. Absolutely unreal 💥👌

Having been through the "audio laboratory" phase, I am leaning toward an Accuphase stack. Man, those components look nice.

[ericelmore]

Looking forward to your Diptyque review. I really enjoyed the sound at CAF.

I’ve been waiting for this Steve! Have a wonderful holidays🙏🏼

*Steve, Merry Christmas from the UK. Thank you for great review as always.*

[patrickgeorge]

Nice list of amplifiers. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

[darrellross]

Steve, I pre-amp my Fosi V3, through my Jotunheim. Yeah I went there, yeah it's great. Best, D.

[jackstraw]

Can’t wait to see your Schiit Tyr review, hope you do one.

[axelwunsch]

Thank you for the always exciting videos, which are also very meaningful and where there are always new things to discover. Have a wonderful Christmas time and warm greetings from Germany.
