I am not a big fan of rotten apples, but still, an interesting liquid improvement for gloomy days.

Love propper cider

I'm such a hipster I don't even have a record player.

Watching movies on PC with AKG K275 connected to Audio Quest Dragonfly Red. I’ve been impressed by the K275. The best $100 to $250 (USD) closed-back headphone to be released in recent years maybe?! I think so. I certainly recommend it.

Going to buy an AKG HP4E headphone amp (pictured below) next week to use with the K275 and Sony MDR7510, then call it a day.

Lol I know. The problem is that I have lots of equipment, but very little space. That system/combination is endgame for me, but I am going to have to sell some of it. Besides, it might help fund my purchase of Sony Z1R.
I am not too bothered about selling some of it because I am confident that my ears are well used to reference systems and that I have heard "the best" not just with that system but with previous systems i've owned, over the last 10 years. Thanks to plenty of exposure to such systems, I will always be able to identify top sound quality when I hear it, even in $200 headphones :). It has been some journey for me. So I don't mind making sacrifices. Having said that, recent headphones i've purchased have well exceeded my expectations and so i'm more than happy to just use them with cheaper amps and equipment, as long as such amps/equipment provide plenty of power. The sound quality of the amps/equipment comes secondary from now on. I'm learning to be more practical, I have no choice.

Finally took some pictures of newest iteration with an SR-404 Limited that came in on Friday:

I like your set up! I have also been working off of a studio cart for the last year. So much simpler when you can rack everything.. I will have to post some pictures when I get them edited

My Auteur is away at the moment, tube rolling and getting reacquainted with some classics :beyersmile: the 650 is still so, so good.

Beautiful build, and great collection of truly synergistic headphones! Love the mirror finish on the chassis plate and the nice chrome knobs. Also looks like you've taken some care in tube selection. Enjoy.

Thanks for the compliment! I take my tubes pretty seriously, I have quite the collection at this point :L3000: it's amazing how they can transform an amp and tons of fun to collect (but not so much for my wallet!).
