This will be my birthday purchases:

1. HifiMan Portable audio player - $700
2. Lisa 3 Semi-portable Amplifier - $600
3. Ultra high end custom IEM - $1,000+

Total:

1. $2,300+

I'm going to use the HiFiman's built in high end DAC and feed it via line out straight to the Lisa III which then feeds whatever custom IEM I chose.

I already have my order in for the HiFiMAN HM-801, for the DAC alone. I still haven't heard the headphone amp module, nor have I seen the final user interface (the LCD interface).

So, yes, I do think the HM-801 will be a part of the best portable system I've yet heard.
