  I am in the same boat as Rookie. My new toy came today. DAC + Headphone amp = solved. Speakers almost done. Then get off head-fi. 

 
 

 
 
Only thing I still need head-fi is for a Fostex. After that, away from all temptation 

 
 
Rookie, I expect some pictures at the very least!

nice pic!! yes..i am on the going away boat..just like u...
 
but i promise i will make some 'packing out' pics...just because u asked it to...but.those wont be top of line pics as my new audio rack (that i bought for my new toys) isnt going to be here for another 4 months or so..so bare with me if the pics look a bit amateuristic.

but i wont talk about how it sounds or anything..just esthetics..and a big box..

 
what a colorful amp u have!!! never heard of that brand....dangerous source? knowing u a bit it will sound good...so i hope u share with me (or us) how it sounds...
and i still need advice on my new speaker rig..any tips? PM them to me if u can..thanks my friend..

Cool. Post pics here and drop me a message about the sound. I'd still be interested. Cheers.

i will..promise...have a good one..i am going to bed...5:00am! in a few hours the package will arrive...13:30, if i am lucky, or 15:30 at the latest...can u believe i have to pay the delivery guy cash on delivery for the extra costs of customs and taxes? need to run to an ATM for money in the morning as i know what the costs are... i really REALLY hate DUTCH customs! i know they do their job..but i hate them...period!!...i have to pay around 30% over the total of the postage (for a 20kg package) and the worth of the amp together!!.. ohwell..important is that i at last will be able to hear it....

That thing is Death Star badass.  Love their logo.  Wrong cans sitting atop it, though

Enjoy official Blue Circle Amp Day, Hifi!  Been a long time coming.  I'm sure it will be worth it

Yeah it's a solid peace of gear. I haven't felt this good about getting such value since my HE-500s. The D2000 are surprisingly super tight with these and crazy bass. Way better value than something like M51 and BDA-2. Not to mention I like the sound of this more than BDA-2/BHA-1 which was a bit too aggressive. Getting monitors very, very soon. After that, I'll be doing most of my listening on them. Then I'll do a final headphone upgrade.
 
I'm going to try and find a HE-500 and other planars to try it out of the headphone jack at the upcoming meet. Should be interesting.

End game is where Head-fi'ers go after they die. It's the Head-fi equivalent of enlightenment of searching for sonic nirvana. Bad Head-fi'ers are forced to listen to Beats headphones for all eternity.
