I picked up a D-Control, I love it! It has definitely sped up my mixing workflow.

A new pair of AML EZ1073-500s A new pair of HRK CP523v Tube opto compressors And 3 more CAPI LC53A E.Q.s Looking to get a pair of the AML54f50 Comps. But I'll have to get a dedicated rack for the AMLs.

Just grabbed IK Total Studio MAX... probably going to wait till tomorrow to do the big install and dig in.
Got a newly released Steinberg UR24C interface coming tomorrow too! Planning on using it with the iPhone. For social posting and perhaps mobile production.

I just got one of those little Zoom H2N (sounds like a virus) mini recorders to use as a sketchbook and to send scratch recordings back and forth with band members during the lockdown.They're pretty cool - my bass player has one - and recording quality is surprisingly good.

You can use those as an audio interface too! Kind of neat. I've been doing this with my H1n for fun.

Grabbed a Rycote Baby Ball Gag that I may try to hack for Blumlein/DMS/Ambisonic use.
Doing lots of restorations lately, so tons of misc. electronics parts. Did an OP-6 this week, reconfigured and restored a cool rack with a Collins 356A and a GE Unilevel on it, built several B+/filament supplies for tube gear, etc.

The Pelonis 4288s came today but in a first world problem sort of way, the power amp is not going to arrive till maybe Tuesday. If that’s all happens to me, I am in good shape. These speakers are monsters. No wonder they are rated to go LOW.

Have begun testing the UR24C. So far, it has some of what I think of as the "Steinberg sound" having owned a UR824 years ago. The amazing thing is you can power this with a cell phone charger (5V power supply). Needs 1 Amp though (5 Watts.) Won't be able to hook it up to the phone until I get the USB to Lightning adapter. First world problems! Initial review is it sounds quite good for the price range, and for the low power. Probably better than the old Focusrites, although the Scarletts are up to Gen 3 now.

I believe it’s just the “last pair” from the last production run. I didn’t mean to imply that there would be no more ever. I got the impression from the email that they weren’t building anymore at the moment because of the Covid. I don’t know anything about the other part of your post like where things are made etc.

I don’t even know if Tannoy has been making drivers for a while, the PA Tannoys I bought and flipped had Fane OEM dual concentric drivers.

I ordered a pair of Samar AL95 mics. Mark said the $349 introductory price is going to expire soon so I bite the bullet even though it's not a great time to be spending. I love my MF65's.

Picked up a 10 pack of Jeff's new CA-0252 op amps. Big, warm, and juicy. The red dots will give you more high end transient detail, but these are warm, fat and rich sounding. I've tried them in VP-28s and 550a EQs, and like them very much.

I’m running VP28s, 550s. Might be nice to try them in the CAPI Sumbus as well.

Not really "new" per say...
But I got my first 2 ML2s calibrated today finally! Very excited. Have 4 more to rig up to get calibrated then start testing the modification to get insert send/returns to work on them for the future "CAPI Console". Stoked.

My three Beyerdynamics M201TGs arrived today. Lovely little things in exquisite condition, but no clips or cases.
