Beautiful. I probably don't need to ask but, how do you like them?

 
Thanks!  My favorite headphone I've heard so far.  The LCD-2 with a good vinyl album is absolute musical heaven for me.

I'm not sure if I'm reading the meaning behind this response correctly, but I wasn't trying to put anyone/thing down by my comment. Just a harmless fact statement. Me being relatively young definitely has a lot to do with it.

i was just making fun of my embarrassing tape collection..... first listing some, and then pretending that i never owned them.
 
i do have a sweet spot for those aforementioned bands though. i also have hundreds of dead and phish shows on cassette in storage somewhere that i'm all excited to find. wow, posts above have inspired me to dig up my tape deck. i'll post some pictures when it's all set up.

That sounds like heaven there! Are you running a tube or ss headphones amp? I have been running a ss amp since day one of my venture into the HeadFi world but have wanted to try out a tube headphones amps for comparison. I am running tubes in my HiFi system and was thinking it would bring the same effect as it has on my loudspeakers.

A ss amp.  I'm actually running the turntable through my old Pioneer receiver that has a phono stage.  I had been using a Bellari VP130 tube phono stage and headphone amp but I liked the Pioneer sound better.

Hm. For the most part I've never owned or used physical media ever

HERESY!
sorry, had to
Physical media is just sooooooo much nicer, be it cds (which I prefer) vinyl, or even reel to reel, cassette, 8track etc for the extreme cats out there.

Also, sorry all for the use of cats, been listening to alot of jazz as of late....

Just a quick note to say I'm loving this thread. I'm very new to all of this and have been using the photos to look up/learn about various pieces of gear. Keep the great photos coming!

Sorry to quote pictures guys, but this was awhile back, and I just noticed it, and it might not be seen, but:

dailydoseofdaly, is that a Kay bass? I think I spy the badge down there on the tailpiece. Strung with Spiro mediums I believe? That's really cool man, I've got a Kay from 1941 and just put some Velvets on it, it sings. What year was yours made?

Yeah it's a Kay 1963. Plays great

If only they actually did that. Too much text, guys!

On a related note, if you want to see some more stuff, check out the Tumblr. in my signature. Got an insane amount of pictures of head-fi rigs on there.

^ That's such a kick-ass website.  
 
Funny that my plantronics + LCD-2 made it there.

Rearranged my setup (again) and reinforced it with some Stax.
 

 

 

 

 
I designed and built this state-of-the art wooden mini-shelf myself, using only the finest high-end audiophile components, such as IKEA pen holders and double sided tape. It adds a completely new sense of luxury to my system. Needless to say that the improvements it made to sound quality are tremendous.

How are you liking those Lambdas? (they are 407's, right?).
I personally have a pair of SR-202's, and I like them much more than my trusty HD650's.
