I've had the BorderPatrol for a couple of years and enjoy it. It's unconventional in design yet the sound is superb for the cost, organic and musical. I would not recommend if you want an analytical dac but if you just want get kick back and enjoy the music then this may be for you.
Cheers
Agreed! Border Patrol was my first 'standalone' DAC 🙂.

Not "head-fi" station exactly, but I recently moved and the new house has an addition on one of the bedrooms that I am now using for my home theater. It's still not complete; I need some more acoustic treatment (the acoustic panels on the left side, for example, are temporary), bass traps, need to paint the roof (although I might not bother with that), and my love seat is on the way, but won't be here until next Friday.

I do have a little head-fi station in there, though. :beyersmile:

Just curious, what audio rack is that?
It's from a German company and it's called EMPIRE Precision MC-Series.
I have it since a couple of years and happy with it's quality and look.

Yep! LG CX, 55". At the time I wanted the 48" because I thought 55" would be too big for my room, but the 55" was actually cheaper. Now that I've moved, and have a much bigger space, I'm glad I got the 55"! Hell, I even have space for bigger, when the time comes to upgrade.

LG C8/77" owner here. Mine is 6 years old. Newer LG OLEDS can get brighter, but I don't even use all the brightness mine has.

The picture on this flatscreen is mind-blowing. Anyone who visits & watches a film on it comes away very impressed.

I straight-up can't go back to standard LCD screens anymore. The perfect blacks of OLED outweigh any brightness advantage of LCDs to me. And in a pitch black room I don't think I'd really like a TV that hits 2000+ nits.
