Nice. Which W4S DAC is that and how do you like it?

My modified Beyerdynamics T70's. Not ideal but it will be ok till I get them fixed.
I'm using a ProJect USB DAC, I like it. Not sure if I need a headphone amp or not..

Been switching between the Burson and the DA8, and the Burson still puts up a good fight!

Try using the dac section in the DA8 and amp section in the conductor.  I think that is your best bet.

Oh, it's the HA-160DS, but yes, the DAC section of the DA8 plus the amplifier section of the Burson does sound pristine.

I liked the 160ds for the money. Nice Dac/Amp combo with my HD650's....

The sr80i's sound pretty good with the Vali. I think that is mainly due to the mods I made to my grados.

drewTT.......That is the W4S DAC2.  Hi-res from the laptop sounds super clean, open, dynamic and solid.  I am pleased with the HD800/DAC2/Musical Fidelity X-Can V8P rig, although I have some interest in the new Sennheiser HDVA 600 amplifier.  I wish there were some solid reviews available on the HDVA 600.  It's tough to let go of that kind of money without some positive motivation from satisfied owners and/or an experienced reviewer.

Looked thru quite a few of the rigs in this thread tonight. Makes me wonder what the total value of the equipment in the thread would be. $1 mil? $10 mil? I'm sure its a big number.

My new (80's) NAD 7130 receiver sounds fantastic with the HD800's. In a word 'luxuriant'

Hi,
 
I used a Canon 5D Mark 3 and Sigma 35mm 1.4 DG. I have lighting manually controlled (bounced speedlite).
