Hey all,
 
I joined a while ago back when I was really into computer stuff in general.  I'm slowly getting back into that hobby as well as upgrading my audio equipment, so I thought i'd start becoming more active on head-fi.  The current stuff I have my hands on:
 
Bravo Audio v2
Bravo Audio v1
Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium HD sound card
Fiio E9 
Sennheiser HD 598
And my newest and most prized audio possession Sennheiser HD 600's
 
I've been experimenting with different setups to get the best combo that appeals to me, but what recommendations do you guys have?

Seems to be just all headphone stuff, are you not interested in amp / speakers.
 
An external dac would be best, and most have headphone sockets.
 
I'm using the audiolab m-dac, this would be a good move.
 
Can you tell me if you are staying with headphones, or if you have different upgrade thoughts

The Fiio E9 is a DAC + Desktop amp.
The sound card also has a DAC
The Bravo's are both desktop amps.
But to answer your questions i'm mostly getting into headphone stuff right now.  
My speaker system is an old Sony RX30 that I have loved deeply for over a decade and feel no need to change my speaker set up right now

I don't really have a budget, i pick up things here and there.  Right now I'm wondering if what I have is a good start to stick with for a while and which configuration is best.
 
My current setup is Sound Card > Fiio e9  > Bravo Audio V1 > HD 600s
