My "portable" station - basically a laptop table with wheelies. I move it next to my desk when working and next to my couch/armchair when not working. Added some cardboard so that the cables don't get stuck in the wheels. Girlfriend hates it.

Hah wait until you have a wife complaining about "all that crap in the basement", ooph. Nice gear though! Looks like Elegia? Mine are my best travel friends. Clearly HD6-somethings, probably 600 but could be 650 if there is some blue reflection?

Can't get my office lighting anywhere near yours, but sunny morning vibes testing my "new" amp at the office. Luckily no one walking in will know enough to criticize the triple amping and all that. :) Sounds great.

I am up in a loft over the sitting room; I just pointed a small lamp, on its side, at the gear … 🤷🏻‍♂️😀.

Oh I can imagine, haha.

And thanks! That's indeed the Elegia and an HD600. These two are my "non-metal" headphones. Rest of my stuff is in my signature, love each of these headphones for different reasons.

If you have a battery generator, you can take the setup out while jogging … 🤣

Another wonderful Combination..

@Sisco now I'm really ineterested in HEDD headphones... you made me wonder :wink: On the other hand, to tell the truth I am yet to find cans that do not sound at least very good with Envy. Maybe some very sensitive IEMs but I can not name anything in particular and I maybe wrong here. Awesome amp.

oustanding... is that the stock Meze cable?

I recommend the ZMF Snap Crescent headband cover for longer listening sessions...

Added the HD660S2 and it’s not even close to the other two. Highly likely that I will sell it on again.

My thoughts too when I heard it at the Sydney HiFi Show.
There’s this huge gap between the HD800S/HD820 and the rest of the Sennheiser line up. Ok…there’s HD700 which I consider the odd one anyway and it’s not bridging that gap really.

If you love resolution and details, the HD800s will be streets ahead but if you just want a comforting relaxing headphone with warmth and midbass, then the HD650 will fit the bill. For me going from HD800 to HD650, there's just too much lost of details that I am not interested in the latter. I use HD650 to test tube amps. If it blows, it's not too painful. :)
