@Jude
How does the Antelope stand against the DA11?
Do you prefer the raptor to the apache with your HD800?

Those monitors are rly nice man, compliment for that!
Can I ask what monitors those are? And do they come with an extra subwoofer? or is the build-in sub the only one.

Want to get myself a new setup soon and I'm looking for some nice monitors and those are pretty much exaclty what I'm looking for.

Hit me back plz.

Cheers

Scrivs, if you read the posts (or the following posts), you would know what speakers those are...

Those monitors are PSB B15 or B25. I own the the B25s in maple color and I wish I had such a desk.

Thank you, too! The camera is a Nikon D300 (with a 24-70mm f/2.8 lens and SB-900 flash). The EXIF information can be found here.

So do I. They're wider than most such ties. It's not unusual for Sennheiser to give away these and other Sennheiser trinkets at the big Can Jam Meets, so there's one more reason to go to Can Jam 2010 in Chicago.

It's really too early for me to offer much in the way of a competitive analysis, but I'll say more down the road.

Yes, I prefer the Raptor to either the Apache or my Luxman P-1 with the HD800. In my opinion, the Raptor is a standout pairing partner with the HD800, and should be heard by anyone (a) who isn't apt to want to spend a fortune to drive the HD800 properly, and/or (b) who has heard the HD800 with other amps and thought the HD800 on the leaner side. In my rigs, the Raptor has found its specialty with me, and that's driving the HD800, so it's rare to find any other headphone plugged into it nowadays. More performance can be extracted from this combo with some tube rolling--I have several sets of tubes for it, but have been most pleased with the set that's in there now (the Tung-Sol 5687's and Amperex Bugle Boy 12AU7).

The DA11/Raptor/HD800 combination is grand sounding--big, full, detailed. The Antelope Zodiac+ prototype and Sennheiser RS170 are only here for a few more days. I see one of the Antelope Zodiac models (when they're officially out) as a strong contender for a place in one of my rigs, if not my main one. And one of the new-generation Sennheiser wireless headphone systems is something I'm strongly considering, too. The Apache is on loan from Ray Samuels Audio, but I may have to make it mine, as I've found it to be magic driving the JH13 Pro and my Grado headphones (the former which I'll be driving balanced soon). Oh, and the latest addition to my home office rig, added last night: Photo.

I'm in the wrong line of work.
