It seems like HD800 was not the best choice, so I cancelled the order. I will try HD650, SA5000, DT880, and if I can find it, STAX headphones first. I think I'll purchase two headphones, and DAC and AMP both in the range of 500. I think that'll leave me enough room to venture around different...- rokkyboy
