Hi,
I've been listening to my Alessandro MS2's and Etymotic ER4P's for years, but finally have the financial means to try out some high end german headphones. I briefly considered the HD800 but think I'll go with the HD650's.
Anyway, Is the headroom Desktop a good option for them? I want a DAC too, so the all in one appeal is there. There don't seem to be many reviews of the desktop out there. It is expensive at $850, but I'm not a DIY'er and it seems like it's built well and has all the connectivity I need. I'm not sure what I would gain by going up to the ultra desktop and what I'd lose by going down to the microstack. Any advice, alternatives, or suggestions? I had a 2nd generation airhead many years ago so I've always had a fondness for Headroom gear.
