haha I was wondering where the tea fi was going to stop :) I too am a fan of good tea. The dragonwell from Jing is particularily nice!
 
And back on track with an action shot from work. Today is a good day with new gear at work :wink: 
 
Cheers,

What pads on the Fostex and what cable?

Kinda looks like a V-Moda cable. Not sure about the pads though.

HM5 pads and a vmoda cable. I wish the cable wasn't purple but it's all vmoda had in stock when I got it. I may get a grey one, but i hardly notice the purple anymore... Best cable i've encountered for the t50

Sorry MT....You have really run the gamut lately. I know you will be a happy camper with the Harbeth's the the Leben. 
 
I finally got home with the HD800's. Here is the new family photo...
 
 

Great stuff. I'm now officially jealous of your set up :/
 
How are you adjusting to the them in comparison to your 650's? Are they a revelation?

Soundstage....WWWWWIIIIIIIDDDDDDEEEEEE......My 650's with the Toxic's are great. These are another level. Micro detail is superior. I am hearing small things I have never heard before. 
 
I will probably never sell the 650's. Different presentation, but I feel like I have made the big time.

God Good stuff!!
 
Yeah, I will own a pair one day. But for now I'll just have to listen to my pretend HD800's... The K701's.

I think that most people who love the 650's (including myself) its hard to break away, even with something that is clearly superior. Maybe build a little cosy bedside rig for your retired 650's? you know, just so they don't feel too old and useless :wink:

I'm still trying to get acquainted with my new HD650's. Was hesitant to get 'em dolled-up. Maybe I should leave them sit out and become Toxic.

mmm... blank/black avatar, not a good sign. Toxic's great, but you got quite a wait..
 
My love for the 650's didn't really unfold until I tried them with a hybrid amp. They benefit from SS speed and tube soundstage. This affected them much more than any cable I tried.
