The RB-1050 and pair of RMB-100s are under the armrest on the lower shelves. I hope to make a final judgment soon on what will drive the HE-6.

I just added a tube buffer stage to my dedicated secondary/bedroom (high-powered) system. There's a Devilsound v2 cable between it and the PowerBook, which is running Pure Music/ALAC. ALO-made speaker tap extension to 4-pin XLR to mate with HE-6/KK. I use a different computer to surf the net while I am listening to this rig, an HP laptop/tablet.

I am quite new to hifi head-phones and just in the process of building a system. Currently only this semi mobile combo of Sony D50, AKG K242HD, and Grado RS80i.  
Contemplate about an upgrade with Yulong D100, Yulong A100, Beyer DT880 and Grado RS1i.

Nice pics and I think you will be happy with Yulong D100. I'd get it first and try it as a combo Dac/Amp, then decide if you need the A100 later

Thanks for the kind advice. Just wonder how big the difference would be between D100 and A100 when each drives 250ohm DT880. Is D100 poweful enough? The D50 is quite powerful driving the K242HD and Grado RS80i at such an ease.

How do you like that amp? I just bought my Grado Sr60's and love it but looking to see what advantage I would get from an amp? Thanks.
 


 

I love the amp (and I got it for a steal too $120) It is a rather large noticable step up from a budget portable amp, or your computer sound card. The difference was astounding to me, the layers it brought to my music is wonderful, nice lucid midrange, and it cleaned up the high range giving it a nice bit of sparkle again. It really was an astonishing change and I can't recommend it enough. A lot of users use the sr60i with the little dot, you can look into that too, I have not experienced it so cannot talk about it but do not feel afraid of this amp, it is wonderful.
 
I recommend checking out the mods first, modding your sr60i to your liking, and then grabbin a nice amp :)
