New addition to the stable.
I made the decision to take advantage of the $600. price on the HiFiMan Arya Stealth, here pictured with the Meze 109 Pro. I think 2025 is going to be a really uneventful year so far as new purchases. I've also upgraded my Fiio BTR7 to the newly released BTR17 and I purchased the Earmen stack which consists of Amplifier, Linear PS, DAC & Streamer.

Also, I'm not so sure I want to give up fast keyboard control of audio for fumbling with tiny controls and what seems to be marginal though noticeable performance from Adam F5 speakers. Impulse buying 1st world problem...
That said the Class A by design has much less distortion and the reason it is preferred by most audio folks.
