Thanks Ultra!
 
The new Taboo MK III is 4.6 W into 8 ohms for speakers. I need to find the HP output chart.

heh heh...Mr. Guttenburg called the Decware CSP2+ a Bottlehead Crack in an article.... The twin Decware's are gorgeous looking together. CSP2+ on the left (It is primarily a Pre-Amp that is also a really nice OTL HP amp. On the right is the new Pentode Decware Taboo MK III. I have several weeks of tweeking the combo to see what they can do together for HP's.

Very Nice. I always like seeing Mad Dogs out there. And that second screen as a huge album browser is sweet.
 
Last step: make or buy some stands for those speakers and get them off the desk for even better sound. :)

My head-fi station is my battlestation. Very modest compared to most people here, but I like it.
 
 

How did you set up the screen like that?

Thanks guys. Both monitors pivot 90 degrees so you can put them in portrait mode. And the album art is full screen "Cover View" in JRiver Media Center.

Loving the 202s! I had a pair, myself. They're a gateway drug, be warned.

I bought HD202s a few months ago and i wasnt impressed at all with the build quality / comfort.  They sounded ok, but didnt hold up at all.  I have to recable them if i want to ever use them again and its tough to justify $20 in cables and connectors for headphones i didnt much care for to begin with.
 
I think monoprice MEP-839 are the best headphones in that price point.

Cool, because I'll never purchase a Monoprice product as long as I live.
