Thank you all for the no nonsense work you do for our benefit. I really appreciate it.

Love your channel. I've been enjoying hi-fi for over 30 years, and worked in two shops for a combined time of 10 years. I do appreciate a good surround system, but my heart will always be in the two channel arena. Just bought my first pc of gear in 20 years. A Denon PMA 1700 in silver to run my Dynaudio Focus 140s using a vintage Hitachi turntable and a Wadia 302 digital out into the 1700s dac.

Gene’s Christmas end of year show is always nice.

The Polk R700 towers have been on backorder for a few months, but my order finally shipped. I'm excited to try them out.

Nice to see the list every year. Could you do a preamp and streamer choice. Always look forward to the videos and how they are explained in simple terms thanks for all you do.

[sethfm]

Great recommendations and a wonderful treat with the songs at the end. Your family is very talented. Happy Holidays!

Thank you for all your hard work in educating us in the world of sound and home entertainment. Your daughter has a beautiful voice. Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones!

Thanks for the great advice. I got my Anthem MRX1140 based on your recommendation. Lovely Christmas caroling, as well.

Gene, family, friends, and crew, thanks for the awesome reviews and the wonderful vocals your daughter did for us. Encourage her to keep it up.
Ha, we were considering getting a regular Roku device for the TV in the bedroom and there is nothing I need for Christmas that the wife can get me. I guess we may have to let her upgrade it to the Roku soundbar.
To everybody keep enjoying life!

Gene, thank you for the products of the year awards video and all the other great videos you've produced over the last year. Thanks to all your team and reviewers at Audioholics for their great work. You're very lucky to have such a beautiful family my friend. Your beautiful daughter is very talented and has an amazing voice that is already fully bodied and matured at such a young age. I wish you, your whole family and your team, season's greetings and a happy and prosperous new year.

Purchased a pair of Polk R700s thanks in part to an Audioholics review. Awaiting delivery, hopefully next month. I hope my antique Denon AVR4806 can drive them sufficiently well!
