Not just hoping, I know they are coming because I bought them for myself.

A pair of Fostex T50RP headphones and I plan to modify per Head-fi.org instructions.  They supposedly rival cans that cost 10X the price once they are modded.  We shall see......

World peace and an end to global hunger...UH...NAH!  ;D
 
I'll settle for a 1970 Ampeg Dan Armstrong ARMB-1 clear Lucite bass guitar - first I have to find the right one and then leave the bread crumb trail for the wifey to find.  :-*

I guess the part of Christmas I enjoy most is all the family coming together and seeing the smiles on their faces. I know that's kinda sappy but it's true.  :D That's all I want from Santa.

First and foremost? My dear son to get better [he's been running a fever for the past two days, amongst other Flu-like symptoms]. The thing I would like for X-mas is already on its way.  A pair of Transparent Reference IC's. Oh, yeah baby!!! Maybe another set here in about a month. Reminds of that song by I don't even know who....."Movin' on up"...

Other than that? I'd like Santa to spank Mrs. Claus for being a bad girl. What more could a guy ask for?

Let me know how those T50's turn out, Scott! I was thinking about doing the same.

Stop by the week after Christmas to give them a listen.

Good for you Al!   I was a bad boy this year coz I received zero vinyl despite hints galore. And it is so easy to and inexpensive to buy vinyl!  :o
