I have a Cambridge DACMagic, Heed Canamp, and AKG K701s in my computer desktop setup.  
 

 
Here is a better shot of the desk ( I used a wide angle lens, so the scale is off a bit)
 

 
FYI There is also a Gateway PC under the desk, so it is not an OSX only setup.


Wow, you have your entire houses entertainment in one spot. Do you even get up lol :D
If you make your wife cook for you and install your own chair toilet, you'd never have to move....HAHA

@uofmtiger, can your door even open? Looks impossible from this angle! You've got a lot of gadgets.



The monitor in front of the door is on an Ergotron mount, so I just swing it in front of the desk when I need to get in the closet.  The monitor looks bigger than it is because of the wide angle perspective.  It is a 25.5 inch and the iMac which looks smaller is a 27 inch.  The closet has a fold out treadmill, so I get in and out of the closet all the time.

Added some new speakers to the computer rig, Pioneer Hpm-100's. Never mind the overflowing trash can. The Mac Mini will be Sold on Monday to supply some much needed cash to upgrade my receiver and to aid in the building of a new windows machine.
 
You cant really see it, but that yellow blob on my desk is my first ever 'source' a refurbished Sony Sports Walkman, I loved that thing in Jr High, played all my dad's old tapes on it for years, I remember specifically playing "Space Trucking' about a bajillion times. My dad bought me my first closed back headphones to go with it, some Technics, Im sure their still at his house somewhere.

I believe they are Vintage Pioneer HPM-100s (or something of the HPM series for sure).

They are indeed HPM-100s. But in order to do them justice, they do need to be raised off the floor. Tweeters should be at ear level for best performance. Once you do that, you will be amazed at how good they sound
