My current setup: HD650 and Momentum 2.0 along with Schiit modi2u and BH Crack. RCA cleartop driver with Chatham 6as7g. 

 
that's a great setup. I should use my Crack a lot more. This tube combo is also one of my favs (after the 6080WB and the GEC 6AS7G). Great amp for the Senns.

Pretty new to this awesome hobby, here's where I'm at right now and absolutely loving it:
 

 
Here's the full chain: 
 
Hifiman HE-400i (original version with removed cloth grill mod), > Audeze Deckard (used as amp only) > Monoprice RCA > Bifrost Multibit > PYST USB cable > Macbook Pro > Audirvana+
 
 
Any have recommendations for the next headphone step after the 400i? Definitely think I'd go planar unless someone really recommends the HD800. I'm all about detail and hearing things I've never heard before. I like feeling accurate bass, but definitely not a basshead. Thanks!

Hd800 S might be a consideration if it truly fixes the treble spike and adds a good dash of bass. Mine should be here this week and I'll be able to confirm. Plus the hd800 S would pair nicely with your Crack and be a good compliment to your 650.

Haha I think you quoted the wrong person. I have a 400i and Deckard, no the Bottlehead.

Haha...senior moment I guess.

  Then I'll revise to say that you might consider the HeX as an upgrade with your equipment.
