Hey Voodoo,
 
How do you like your DacPort.  Is it all that it is cracked up to be?
 
It got pretty good reviews from Stereophile and CNET.

Hi mine is actually the Dacport LX, which is only the dac portion without the amp. I would say it's a surprisingly good piece of kit that holds its own against desktop DACs in its price range. It's sound signature is pretty likable to me, clear and dynamic, doesn't add any frills or colouration to the music. Good if you prefer a small form factor or don't want the hassle of too many cables, as it is powered via usb. However this is just early impressions as I've only been listening to it for a few days But so far so good

 

[wullymc]

Perfect....thanks for the reply!
 
I was recommended the DACport but I am still searching.  I don't need that portable a dac/amp setup.  I would rather have a desktop system.

Imo a desktop system might provide better value for money, especially in terms of connectivity and features. Would recommend you go for a desktop DAC if you will be only staying in one place to listen to your music (i.e your computer )

^ How do you like the WA2 vs the Crack?

Beautiful, but I think your next upgrade ought to be to that old (looking) beige sub (or speaker?) lol
 
But yeah that looks awesome aesthetically and I bet it sounds great too!

I'll compare them when I finish the speedball upgrade later this week. The HD800s had a noticeable hiss with the basic crack so I haven't A/B'ed them.

Thanks, that's a 15 year old pos 2.1 I use for TV. I'll put it on the list for replacement.

Classic!  Most people here spend several hundred (or thousands) of dollars on gear, but not many invest in larger desks.

Anyone else seen that this head fi rig is on the Reddit frontpage?

A small update to the setup, got rid of a monitor hid the keyboard's cable and got a new mic.
