Do you guys like my most expensive piece?

Quote: im using a hd650 with a valhalla. my sources are a ps3 and squeezebox touch but i also want to connect my cable box to the dac as well.

id like to listen to some dacs before purchasing but there aren't any audio stores in my area  

that's ok maybe i will get a bifrost  

looks like the odac doesnt have coax or optical inputs.  

out of that list which one do you recommend?  

Is this a good one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0047MX2F2/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00? thanks in advance.

in that case i might get a turntable only problem is i have so many cds and i dont really wanna re buy all of them in vinyl format. is this one ok? http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-ATLP120-Professional-Turntable/dp/B002S1CJ2Q/ref=sr_1_2?s=aht&ie=UTF8&qid=1341108124&sr=1-2&keywords=turntable

Quote: i thought all of the old vinyl players produced a crackling noise when they played.

i don't know how you guys listen to vinyls, that crackling sound drives me nuts.

heres some of my lights

i was thinking for my next cans i should maybe get the Audeze LCD3 or the Fostex th900. which one should i go for?

right now i own the hd650 and im looking to get a few more cans to get the most out of the different genres i listen to.  

i like rap, rock, metal, techno, classical, opera, jazz, trance, country and everuthing in between.  

how many different cans do i need to get the most out of my eclectic tastes in music? i listen to all genres. thanks for the info.

how can i tell if my HD650's are the new version?  

i just got my valhalla and i get a hiss with my mp3 player when using the hd650. I have only flac files on my mp3 and the amp is connected to a monster power strip. what could be causing the hiss? thanks for the info  

Quote:  Can i use my Tubemagic d1 as a dac and how would i connect it to the valhalla? Thanks for the info

can i plug my HD650s directly into a schiit valhalla without a DAC?  

Quote: damn that sucks since i use both my pc and an mp3 player at home so i will need two different amps correct?

Quote: since im not an audiophile would i be able to notice the increase in performance with the O2? thanks

Quote: which amp do you recommend that isnt too expensive?

i just ordered a pair of these phones and these would be my first pair of high quality cans apart from my Grado sr60. How much better are these compared to my grado sr60s? also are these the best cans for 500? thanks
