Interesting, thanks for the impressions. I was getting the impression from people that it was leaning towards the darker side of neutral. How would you say it compares with the Bifrost as far as imaging and soundstage?

It seems a little higher sound stage, and possibly a little wider. I haven't A/B'd them though

Thanks, BECK is my favorite anime of all time, so decided to make design of my first customs with pictures from it (of course I'm not the one who draw this pic, just find it in net and worked with Photoshop with it)... BTW, I already thinking of ordering UM Miracles in a few days, and already maked design that I want (also pics from net + Photoshop), of course it also will be from anime that I like, now it will be Soul Eater

I loved my PX100's.  In the end, I upgraded to HD580's (now I'm tempted by the 800's) but I still have a soft spot for the 100's.

Prob the last time off topic but I had to say Soul Eater is a great anime too :D And I reckon it would look mighty awesome on a pair of customs given how you did the BECK design!!!
 
But I am not hugely into anime haha. Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo are prob the ones I would love having them on my future customs ^^

Damn, nice DAC! How does it sound? The DP1 is on my short list to hear. I haven't had the pleasure, but from what I have read it sounds marvelous with the HD800/LCD-3.

Pretty good, slightly more detailed than my Lampizator, but tonal/timbre and soundstage falls behind. The built-in linestage is quite good also - as you can see I use that to drive my power amp.
 
It's the first delta-sigma Dac that I like. The only complaint is that the USB input has no galvanic isolation - quite a bummer for the price, took me a while to sort that out.
