Everything I ordered showed up today. Including RCA cables and the USB A to B for the modi. It was all waiting for me when I got home after work. Couldn't have been more perfect.

The Schiit Modi 2U is actually way smaller than I anticipated haha. Its actually cute. Here's a typical handy knife for comparison.

Look at that crystal clear acrylic. I swear I'm gonna get it scratched and dusty within a week

Here's my desktop setup now
The brightness of my screens threw off my camera so it looks really bad lol
I've been listening to some tracks and I can say, the upgrade from on-board to Dac+Amp is pretty sweet. My beyers (dt770pro80) have really come alive. The soundstage opened up immensely. I'ts like I'm hearing sounds from depths I haven't experienced. I consider myself to have pretty sharp ears, but DAMN when I concentrate I can pick out different instruments and details so easily compared to on-board. Something i noticed with my beyers is their tendency to "one trick pony" thump the base is pretty much gone. I can hear the tonality in different bass notes now. Overall I'm very impressed with my initial impressions of my new audio setup. I could probably say alot more but I've got some music to listen to
