It's an ATCS 840. The stock cooling was not optimal so I had to do a lot of work to get the setup just right. The Panaflo's are just as powerful and quiet as Gentle Typhoons when undervolted, but leave the option for cranking them when needed. The U1BXs have a faint ticking sound when undervolted but when the case is closed it can't be heard from the front. The U1BXs and H1BXs have a slightly different sound so the H70 and GPU airflow fans can be adjusted by ear.

First time posting in here, there are so many fantastic and tasteful rigs on show. Here's my humble student set up:
 

 
17" Macbook Pro 2011 model, stock.
Straight out to Swans M200 MKIII (just arrived, god they are gorgeous both aesthetically and in terms of sound)
 
Also pictured (in fuzzy shallow depth of field), iPhone 3G, Westone 4 and my watch.
 
Not pictured: 240GB iPod 5.5G (going to sell it soon), ancient 1GB iPod shuffle, Kramer and Senn pad modded Koss PortaPros.
 
I really need a bigger desk. Hopefully my new flat in June will bring more space and lower rent!
 
Next gear goal that I'm saving up for is the Apogee Duet 2, as that is probably going to yield the best sound quality bump for both my speakers and Westones. Someone tell me if they have better ideas for the next step though

this laptop is the greatest i could find for £765 with the VAT cashback and i heard its quiet and you can turn the fans down which is perfect

Beautiful speakers! I'd love to hear your impressions. I could use some quality desktop speakers ($20 altec lansings are fine for me right now for music if I need to), but I could use some money too

Thanks! I will report back in this thread after a few more days - to let them burn in, and to allow me to maximise them via positioning, shoddy attempts at acoustic treatment and Amarra tweaking.
 
I will say this though, they wipe the floor with my MS40s. Just a different league entirely. And I thought those were pretty good for the 2 years that they fed my ears!

My phone was not taking HD pictures with low lighting. Will post higher quality pictures later.

New Keyboard!
 

 

[Syan25]

Yeah - real cool!

 

[gkl]

Looks nice, what model? At first looked like my Filco TKL but yours has a large Enter.

 

[Blisse]

otaku keyboards are cool o.o

Looks like a Filco Ninja lolol, it's got the lettering on the bottom of the keys. Large enter is confusing though.

Could be a Das Keyboard Ultimate, but the small frame means its not.
 
Curiously, I find the short enter key to be confusing are far from useful. But then again, different keyboard layouts have different enter keys.

 

[dean0]

Its the ISO layout, which is standard here in the UK, including a larger enter key, small left shift and 1 extra key. 
Take a look here:

...and yes its the Filco Majestouch Ninja, with Brown Switches.
