Wishing all members & visitors here, a nice Xmas & summer (in this country anyway) break. Take care on the roads & in the mountains & surf. Keep those tubes & transistors warm & those cones (or panels) flapping. Hope that you don't have to work (or not too hard if you do) & have time to put your feet up in front of an immersive, detailed musical soundstage somewhere (live or reproduced). We're pleased that DarkLantern forum membership has grown 22-25% this year & that page-view activity has doubled from a year ago. Hopefully we can keep highlighting good, relevant news & discussion, that will be of interest in 2020. And hopefully, members & guests can keep contributing & dropping in with increasing regularity & numbers. (Apologies, if Karen Carpenter brings a touch of sadness to mind.)

Thanks Owen, it’s cold and dark here in the UK and the only thing glowing nicely is your forum! Merry Christmas to all.

And as cooksferry mentions, there's more than just one person here performing 'admin', so thanks too, to 'staff' for contributing alternative opinions, news & ideas.

christmas bonus for staff ? Sad to advise that funds this year have been depleted by unforeseen events, eg cartridge repairs, impulsive headphones purchase & possibly a new carbon fibre arm wand 🤣 🤣

Ah, nice. Saw that post but didn't connect. For some reason was picturing a more conventional/longer arm wand when you mentioned a new CF arm.
