Does anyone have experience with the Valhalla?
I was under the impression that they're not good with orthos, but I could be wrong.

My advice, slow down. The 400 will sound very good from the x3. Use it for a month or so and get a feel for how good you think it is. I was on the 400 and e17 for nearly a year, and very happy, before the upgrade bug struck. The 400 doesn't need much amping to get to a very enjoyable level.

I want to say that after having the HE-400 for almost a week that this was very sound advice. I did end up buying the e11 but really only because I had a gift card from Christmas and got it for 9.00. They sound really good with the X3. I am enjoying my purchase and I want to thank you for actually giving sound advice. I made a post on 400 vs. 500 thread similar to your advice, I hope I can help someone too.
So I got my 400's today. They sound great! They're my first ortho's, and they sound so....clean. However, they are EXTREMELY uncomfortable. I am a little worried about bending the headband, as it doesn't seem to give as easily as a Grado headband. Any solutions to make them a bit less of a vice?

Does anybody use Equalizer APO - if so, would you mind sharing your settings? I'd like a darker than neutral sound from HE-400s. Thank you.
I use it. My settings are attached below. It's main aim is to reduce the treble peaks, which it does well imo.
I also developed a tiny app which switches easily between my APO configs. It beats having to manually edit the config files whenever I switch headphones.
