Eikons are currently on my head. Not as glamorous as some other setups, but this is my main work station (which occasionally doubles as our kitchen table!). 
Show us your Head-Fi station at it's current state. No old pictures please...

A couple of new additions to the system. Technics SL-1200 MK2(which I had in storage for the last 15 years. I purchased this new in 1993 or 1994) into the new Eddie Current Classic tube phono pre-amp.
I'm happy with this new addition and had forgotten how magical vinyl was. Though I love a 24-bit/192Khz high resolution digital file like the next guy. There is something just very easy on the soul and deeply satisfying about analog.

If you are about enjoy listening to music, that's the headphone to go with unter 1k, and maybe 1,5k, imo.
For me, its better then T1, Clear and Ether 2 i've auditioned.
It fits my needs in sound signature in perfection, couz it has a unique one.
Focused on vocals by good extension in both directions without being harsh or boomy, especially on higher volume.
If you're able to hear them, you should try.

The last thing I need is another headphone. But I love planar sound; appreciate headphones that are musical, rather than hyped & shouty; and am very interested in anything Quad designs. I hope to hear these at CanJam NYC in Feb.
Interesting to read your comment comparing it to T1, Clear, and Ether 2. Those aren't headphones that suit my sound preferences, but they're very well built & designed; many people praise them. This Quad headphone costs less, and if it is fully competitive w/those 3, it's quite an achievement by Quad.

Nice. I also run Auteur's through Elise. What tubes do you use / prefer?Eikons are currently on my head. Not as glamorous as some other setups, but this is my main work station (which occasionally doubles as our kitchen table!).
Lots of changes in the last few months, mostly brought about by the combination of the RAAL SR1a, ZMF's Vérité and the Rosson Audio RAD-0 (the rest is in my profile), but this is where I've landed:
Just need to pick a tube amp to go with the M-Scaler -> Hugo TT 2 in the office.

Haven't really gotten in to rolling yet. I replaced the stock drivers with a pair of PSVANE CV-181's (not the Mark II). I recently received a pair of 7N7's, but I'm waiting for delivery of the adapters.
