It‘s the “lighthouse” at Disney World’s Yacht Club resort. 🙂

Ok, yep, that's the one! The body of water in the center of Yacht/Beach Club/Boardwalk is called Crescent Lake.

Are you part of the WDW-fan photographer community? (assuming you took that picture)

Oh yes! I had forgotten the name of the lake. Yes that’s exactly it and I indeed did take that photo. I‘m a huge fan and take many photos at the Disney parks. I have most of my pics up on Instagram and a SmugMug website.

Here's my M1 Mac Mini.

My new setup is almost done. Looking for a new pair of loudspeakers...

Lovely; clean set up ;)

Is that a CA DacMagic?

I used to have a stereo set up for my previous 2018 Mac Mini (NAD D7050 integrated, MA Silver 100 speakers and had a CA DAC before I got the NAD amp, so that was the DAC also)

I'm now using what's in my sig below and it's a much cleaner set up; the speakers are superb too and IMO, much better than the KRK offerings ;)

I'm very tempted to try a set of ADAM A7Xs though currently...

Yes Sir!

Actually it's the DacMagic Plus, the one with an integrated amp.

I can't leave it behind. I bought a lot of other DACs after this veteran. In the last years I'm a big fan of ifi offerings. Specially the iDSD.

I love the rich and bold sound of the CA DacMagic Plus. It could not be the most richer out there, but I just love the sound it pulls.

It's really the only sound gear that I always keep on my desktop.

I brought the Aura Studio 3 from the living room to my working desk. It's not the one I looking for but it will rock the office for a while, I think...

Mac mini M1 16gig ram, 1 Tera ssd, Azio keyboard, apple super drive, Logitech 920c webcam, Bose speakers through the 3.5 port on the back, dell 29 inch widescreen, keyboard, camera and hdd wd 1 tera usb 3.0, running on the USB ports of the monitor. Everything is working. Having problems with the bluetooth keyboard but not the mouse. Just installed it, that is why the poor cable management, Want to check if first. Spotify won't run on Big Sur. Only the apple software uses minimal memory, the intel based software uses high amounts of memory. Happy with the machine. Replacing a thrusty 2013 late iMac 27 inch, that would not upgrade to Big Sur.

My Magic keyboard and Apple mouse have not disconnected ... so far, in my case, Bluetooth is working well. I've been using Apple Music ... never used Spotify. Also, I am using Universal applications and the included Apple applications. Everything is working very smoothly.

Magic keyboard and trackpad are the replace the old battery models. I decided to unlink them and buy the new models. Just trying the Apple Music, being a user of Spotify. I am getting the hang of the new Mac mini m1. Thank you for the input....

Spotify works in M1. You have to use a browser either safari or google to. play music. For the M! there is still no software written for it. Open apple music, and Spotify and you will see in the activity monitor how it consumes a lot more memory. I am waiting for Spotify to provide us with the written program for the apple M1.

Are you saying that the Spotify app does not run on the M1? Again, that's BS... there may not be a native M1 version of the Spotify app, but the app runs perfectly well on the M1 under Rosetta 2. Everyone should stop just spreading the FUD.
 
Partial setup of my Mac Mini...

I do need to connect my Logitech camera with an adapter (USB A to USB C). A little nervous, wondering if the Mac Mini will have an issue once all ports are filled. So, pausing that step for now...
