Very nice :)

Be sure to post a link to your new thread herein so we can post lots of questions for you.  I've got a few, but I'll save them for the proper place.

Enjoy!

P.S. - so, your daughter's really into toy cars, eh?  Wait, those aren't your toys, are they??  :wink:

I have three showcase racks (furniture) full like on the pic that showing them.. Some even dont come out of their original boxes..those are numbered... I only once in a while take them out...

Aren't you moving house eventually?  Will you have a room set aside for your collection and hi-fi stuff?
 
Well, most of my questions are about the amp and assorted bits & pieces, but I'll save those.  I will ask, in advance of your first listening session (and not trying to influence you in any way whatsoever):
 
Did you see GOD?
 
cuz I figure this is your end game

Yes moving...and no one touches my stuff..only i will transport them... And all will be transported on the soft leather seats of my car..nothing goes in the boot!!! Yep i am weird..i know..i just wanna minimize problems as much as possible..
And yes..my own listening/hobby room for my stuff..being pc stuff and the stuff u just saw on pics..lolz
Ithink my endgame will start at the end of this year when i will be assembling a speaker rig also for my new house..but for now..yes..i am in heaven..even before i actually had a listen to my new toys..it looks really classy..simple and classy...now i need my new rack.. :p

I have a feeling about what ur questions will be knowing u a bit now..but u can ask them as soon i have the new thread up and running and have some time on my new amp..i want to minimize the ' OMG sounds good new toys' placebo effect when i post about my first listening experiences... :p

^ your camera stinks. That's a shame to take picture of your BC amp with such horrible opticals. Please come back with a much better camera and give your new amp the glory it deserves.:D

^i don't call that little thing on your ipad a camera :) kidding asides, with a decent DSLR, tripod, shoot that amp wide open and slow let the blue circles lite up the frame. Oh lala, i can imagine how it would look already.

Seriously, call it by it's proper name:  NSA Spy Hole

The ambient lighting of an amp, amp + tubes, salt crystal planet with light inside... 
biggrin.gif
 ... all makes for a pleasing listening atmosphere.  Why, Nimzerz has just the periodic orange glow of his girl MJ 
wink.gif

 
Makes me want to try some night shots of my schiit.  So, HiFi, since you possess something truly unique, you should document it properly, as koiloco suggests.  And just because we're paranoid about the NSA doesn't mean they're not out to get you

Should have the 560 very soon to compare to the 500. Seems like a whole new animal, lighter, different headband, different design. Rock out. .

  Has anybody tried the HE-500 with the Valhalla amp?
Click to expand...

 
I think Schiit says on their site re: the Valhalla that if one is looking to use planars, one should consider the Lyr instead.

You won't regret it.  I drive my HE-500s, Q701s and SR-225s (all modded to one degree or another) with it, all beautifully.  Good tubes help, of course
