And taking picture with iphone, playing instagram #headfi

Beautiful rig Ostin
I wonder that you like Sennheiser IE 800

Phew...took me a week to go through this entire thread, and i'm now more enlightened to the options available out there for an aspiring/newbie audiophile such as myself. I'm also $500 poorer, cause I couldn't fight the temptation after seeing all the gorgeous rigs! I've just gone and ordered 2 headphones (V-Moda M80 and AKG k 240), 2 DAP's (Sansa Clip+ and Colorfly C3), a Fiio E17, and a bunch of LOD/cables.

Every post/page should come with a warning: browse with care - your wallet will suffer. Gah!

I am sorry for your wallet
The goal for this thread is to save your wallet , that you buy the right choice for your own rigs .
You can PN your friends here to get the SQ like you looking for

Wow, that's a lot of order! Why didn't you just save up for one high end gear?

Hi Rudi - I've been taking note of what the other members have been saying in this thread (and heaf-fi in general for years) , and I based my selection on what they've said. I'm learning from the best, afterall!  I've also been down to Jaben a couple of times to have a listen for myself on the headphones/combos I've selected, so I'm pretty happy with my choices so far.
 
My baseline is pretty average - I'm looking for anything that can improve on the SQ of my home setup: Asus Xonar Essence STX + ATH-AD700/Grado SR80.

Hi KimVictor, I wanted 2 different rigs - one to leave in the office, and one for the gym/cycling. I don't think i'm well versed enough in the ways of the audiophile (yet) to invest in one high end rig, though the Sennheiser Momentum looks like the next item on my list. From there, i'm sure its bound to escalate quickly, if what I keep hearing in this thread is accurate!

I got my S100 back from Canon after a stuck lens issue. Time for a quick photo and then some nighttime listening:
 

 

[rianchaos]

only 15 grams. Damn, my dear chocolate chip cookies weigh more than that.

but my cookie is not worth $0.7 per gram :rolleyes:

 

[Tom Yum Goong]

That is going to be the next big thing in sound science :-D
"A huge factor that affects the sound of your cable, is the mine where the metal came from! "
:-D
I could see some people here stating such nonsense. No offense :3
That is really sweet cable you have there!

Do you have any other S100 pics of gear or a flickr page? A friend recommended the S100 to me awhile back.

My own Neco SoundLabs v2 amp next to the v3 version of the same amp (bought it for a friend, his money ofcourse ^_^ ). By now I have received the v2 front and back panel with markings because I have one of the early 2008 v2 amps Neco made without any markings on it.

 

[audiofreakie]

@Rian, hahahaha, yups only 15 grams, but if you count the weight of cable without its jacket, well you will surpise...

@Tom Yum Goong, hahaha, thanks, maybe, but the point is my cables are handcrafted from raw pure silver from my homeland, limited edition, only one, hahahahahaha.
