I never really got into this collection before the micro opened it up for me. What great performances with equally great sound I never fully appreciated until the Micro amp. I can only guess how many more delights await me. I rarely use my 7.1 audio system for anything but movies now. Whenever I want the real deal I always turn to my headphone rig. I fully understand this "headphone thing" now. A friend of mine said "he just doesn't get it" and I chuckle beneath my breath, more the fool him. I just wish I'd made the jump long ago. I guess the micro is fully burnt in by now but the little bugger does get rather warm after a long session, is this normal?
My experience exactly, I love the micro stack so much I just may save up to get the Desktop, ultras, or even the Desktop Balanced. Every step of the way I ask myself how could it possibly get any better, and then it does, thanks Headroom and Headfi members.
Enjoy

Alone in my room, lights off, tubes aglow and music flowing, I discovered something. No matter how much hi-end gear I put between the recording and my ears, its the music that moved me to tears. Less is always more.
