    Best upgrade $2k-$4k

    not sure if this post goes here (I also posted in the recommendations forum): I have $2-$4k to blow on an upgrade for my headphone setup. Obviously I'd prefer to spend closer to $2k, but I will pay for the superior experience. Would like to buy new but would consider used. ALL...

    Looking for the best bang for the buck upgrade ($2-4k)

    Amp for HD 800 and TH 900?

    I have the Fostex TH 900 through a HeadRoom Desktop Amp (Max'ed), and am VERY happy with the combo.  Edit: with Desktop DAC combo.   I've heard the HD 800's and will be picking up a pair - not as a replacement to the TH 900, but a complement (the two sound too different to really put as a...

    Amp for a noob that likes to only buy once...?

    So, I currently have the DT990 600 Ohm and the Denon D7000.  I'm running them through a Titanium HD to a JDS Labs O2 amp.  I also plan on getting the HD650's if I can get lucky on a good price.   Do you think the above sound card and amp are good enough for now, or would you recommend...

    Mozart Philips Complete...? Or other collection of "Best" Mozart recordings?

    I'm sort of coveting this, because of its completeness, and also because I'm looking for a collection of highest quality Mozart performances/recordings.   Does anyone know where you can buy this set still?  Or any tips on how to get this collection (e.g., just search ebay all the time)?  ...

    PC -> Asus U3 -> O2 -> DT 990/600? Any reason to buy a sound card?

    Just wondering if, based on the above "chain", there would be any need to buy a "better" sound card like the STX or Titanium HD?   I *think* the answer is "no", since the U3 is the "DAC" and provides Dolby Digital Live for surround sound gaming through the headphones, and the O2 drives the...
