I don't understand portable rigs with an open-backed headphones. It just doesn't make any sense. When I hear portable rig i think commuters and students that need the noise reduction/isolation, those who don't want their music to be shared, and lastly just something more compact and easier to store and take less space in a container or bag.
I mean, good luck with taking a pair of HD600's everywhere you go without annoying people around you with your music and damaging your hearing with unnecessarily loud volumes. I see some great portable rig pictures on this thread, but every now and then I see some one with open back headphones. Seriously, go post that kinda' rig somewhere else.

Also,who on earth would listen to hi res audio on a commute. I mean have you ever used the bus or train? If you have then you know no matter how high end or isolating your gear is, It will still sound like rubbish. So keep your condescending thoughts to your self.
Well HD music is typically a different master from the CD counterpart, so there's a reason why I have that stuff on my portable setup. I'm too lazy to down-convert, and it's not space efficient in my current setup.
And yes I can hear the differences between the CD master and the HD master of some albums on my portable rig, in the noisy public bus I ride every weekday.

Well the reason behind portable rigs is having the freedom to carry your music with you, not only in different rooms of your own house but also in other quite locations like hotel rooms. You would look like a complete lunatic if you commuted with such gear. I wouldn't want to be tied down to one room of my house with a giant amp and dac.
