What was the the last audio-related item you purchased?

It can be anything, from parts, to kits, to pre-made (AKA brand-name) audio equipment from any manufacturer. Just about all things audio. Show us what you recently purchased!

My father just bought me the foam surround replacements for my RCA 40-5004's (which are basically Rebranded Realistic Minimus 77's). I'm going to try the low-frequency tone method when I get to refoaming, as this will be my first refoam and first repair. Not just that, this is also my first time buying off eBay.

Do new record count? The last component was a Mcintosh MP-100 phono pre-amp for MC and MM cartridges with both balanced and unbalanced analog and digital out puts. Play a record with the digital out put going directly to my Marantz professional CD recorder. and to my MX 151 processor to play LP's on the HT system. The analog outputs go to my C-34 for the analog stereo system.

Back to vinyl I see?
 
New pinch roller for my RT-707. Nice, now the tape doesn’t derail when it reverses at the end of the reel.

I just can't play it since our baby was born. Right now it's 100% digital playback. The day will come when I can relax with a few glasses of red to a few LP's.... A few years away to be sure but it will happen.

Right now I'm blown away at the difference the Mutec MC-3+ USB interface/reclocker makes. Just mindblowing. Can't wait for my new Abbas gear to arrive. Mr Abbas has finished building the DAC and the phono stage is close to completion :)

With the Mutec everything is better defined, has more body and impact. Bass is better controlled and defined, and there's improved sound stage..... And that's through my B DAC, a TDA1541A based Lamp Audio unit out of China
