I have a feeling I am going to be spending quite some time just looking through this thread. So much stuff to see.
Well done Detoxguy! Terrific looking setup. I'll be it sounds wonderful. What wood color is the shelf on the rack?
The short way of describing the he-500 is "believe the hype". I had an he-500 that got sold when I bought the audeze lcd-3, but the lcd-3 was uncomfortable for me so I sold it and bought another he-500 (the one I have now). And while the lcd-3 is the better headphone, it's not by enough to make me really miss it when I have the he-500.

Here are my rigs: Sorry for the dark photos, I was testing the F1.8 lens on my point-and-shoot.
1. PC rig - you can't see the Kingrex UD384 + PSU feeding the Lebel CS300x into LCD2rev2s/HifiMan HE-5s/880s/702s/650s/ESW10Jpns/DT1350s/K550s ços they're behind the monitor. The Stax is a Lambda Sig (404 and 006t) driven by aformentioned PC-Kingrex or Marantz SA8003
2. The bedroom rig - a Cyrus CD8x feeding a Musical Fidelity M1 DAC feeding a M1 HPA, or a Cyrus 8vs integrated driving an Epos ELS 2.1 setup
How is the Taurus?
I took a chance buying it as I could only find 6moons review of it, but I pretty much agree with 6moons about everything. It's a very good amp. Most impressive is the amount of power, big soundstage and massive amounts of air it gives you. Sounds great with everything I have, and the same goes for the lcd-3 I sold.
