Ok gang I've got my list down to these two and I respectfully invite comments an either with respect to SQ and would be very grateful to hear from anyone who has heard both. I know that they have different functionality strengths (cd transport vs line/head amp), but my main focus is the differences in the sound. I have auditioned the 840C and it sounds great but am very tempted by what I have read about the NM24 - the bloke who makes them is tops as well, answers emails promptly and professionally.
I know the focus around here is HeadPhones but I'll be feeding my new source into a Cyrus 8vs2 driving pretty sweet modified two way floorstanders that I've not heard bested by speaker rigs up to around $5000 (for the speakers).
The little Headamp I use (Core-Sound Headline) is completely neutral and drives my HD650's easily - obviously if I go with the NM24 I'll use the line stage as a head amp with the 650's as suggested elsewhere around here and by the designer.
Looking forward to any comments people might have.
Cheers.
