New furniture finally came in for the back of the office. Now if only the kids were old enough to take down the gates.

Same old stuff and Dude at the back


If Doc and Marty can't come up with the 1.21 gigawatts maybe it's because your Sansui is running flat out :wink:

Living room setup.

Love the leather Eames. I have cats so I bought the mohair Eames and ottoman, but it’s not as comfortable as the leather version. The mohair is prickly and pokes through thin shirts. The mohair is also a cat hair magnet.

Very nice! What are these headphone stands you're using? I've never seen them before.
I quite like the bowl like base for cable management.

Also, any difference between your two HD800s?
The headphone stand is from Avantree. It's the TR902 Bamboo Headphone Stand With Cable Holder. I imported them from the UK.

Unfortunately, yes, there is a difference between my HD800s. The one with the lowest number (14XXX) is a tiny bit sharper and causes fatique within the hour. Lucky for me I got this one real cheap so I consider it a backup only :.)
The other one is perfect, I can listen to music 8 hours straight without any problem. Well, no, I'm lying. It's not perfect because the clamp is too lose for my liking while the other one has the perfect clamp. Well, first world problems I guess :.b

Oh I would have thought you had a stock one and another with an SDR mod. As you said, it's unfortunate that different serial numbers sound different. But having a backup pair is always nice :wink:.

Thanks for the info on the headphone stands. They're quite cheap too! I might pick up a few myself.

Decided to bring my semi-desktop Bass-station to work. Built me a rack mount for mostly the Parasound hardware. Used a laptop stand and 6 space rackmount brackets. The Parasound Preamp has been socketed and a Muses02 resides in there. The Parasound V3 amp powers any headphone, with my variable resistor box that is hooked up to the speaker outputs on the amp. Using both software and hardware EQ. EQ is an old school Alpine car EQ that has the BBE enhancement when needed. This setup even make the Hifiman 400i rumble.







What dock is that for the FiiO? I'm using a K5.. yours looks much nicer :wink:
