lol this thread is still alive? I guess some do take portable rigs seriously. to each their own..
My portable rig is a 3G iPod shuffle with stock earbuds. The earbuds piss me off when they fall out of my ears, but I can carry this thing anywhere.
This essentially is my (Trans) portable rig (when I walk around I'll choose different cans)
HD800's W/ Custom MarkL Adreniline cable (200 owed, paid off month after next)
Lisa III XP W/ Zebra wood faceplates (I sent them out to be piano laquered w/ clear laquer)
Sony X1061 w/ custom LOD (cable needs to be terminated w/ Jena copperbullet RCA's Markl is handling that as well)
Total Cost?
HD800 - $1,400 B&H Photo
LISA III - $700 Triad Audio
X1061 - $311 Sonystyle
Markl Adreniline - $460 Lawson Audio
Custom LOD - $80
$2,951 of portable gear over two months ( I used the case the HD800's came in to bury my dead wallet, I really should've spent that money on upgrading my Talon Khorus speakers to Khorus X II's), and I'm not rich I only make 20k a year. Now does this rig look like a hassle to carry around?
How long to set this rig up? less than a minute as well, My home rig? For cd's under a minute, for the computer 3-5min, for vinyl 3-5min on a pretreated record 15min on a new record (gotta clean preserve, blah blah blah)
Speaking of my home rig - NEW COMPONENT RACK! I BEAMS FOR THE WIN!!!

Larry, the HM-801 is that good and I get goose bumps listening to it via the ATH ESW9.
Those types of setups are not portable, they are meant for you to sit in your house or somewhere and enjoy your music via your mp3 player instead of a system. To get the best out of it you likely to need an LOD and a good amp
for actual portable, get a cmoy bb 2.02 and enjoy? I enjoy it better than my python :\
