I don't know anything about tube amps and even less about Relyon, but that piece is freaking beautiful. I want to get into tubes as much to look at 'em as listen, I admit.

Beauty.

Thanks! It's a curly Koa slat back rocker.

The B&Ws are the DM603s and they pair very well with the Theta Cobalt. The Sony and EMU I had for sources were too bright for them so the Cobalt added a welcome bit of warmth. The soundstaging is also much wider and deeper than the stock players. I think a nice tube pre-amp will be my next addition though.

Man, that is one beefy headphone stand for those mini stax.

Sweeeet monitor!

Ha ha ,indeed!I use the stand for Lambdas mainly.When watching movies i use the mini stax b/c they are lighter and i find them more comfortable than the bigger Stax headphones,err...earspeakers.For well recorded/mastered music i use Lambdas.

Nuttin wrong with that. I love my PX100s. Those are some freaky good headphones that don't look like they'd sound good.

Ah, so they are the 6 series.
Back a while ago I was thinking of replacing my budget receiver for my DM603s, and even with my warm dac I was worried that a SS amp (like a rotel) would be a bit harsh, so perhaps a tube pre-amp would be just what the doctor ordered.

Hm, now all I need is the money. ~_~

Never said there was anything wrong with it

I really like the PX-100s. Theyre really great for costing so little. I probably use them more then my ESW9s

My setup. Apologies for the dust, all the black combined with the camera flash tends to really highlight it.
