Very nice.  The M-Stage Matrix looks nice next to your display.

Gamerone - very tidy rig and workstation. I wish my desk was that clean. 

 
Before you move on from the 701's see if you can have a listen through a Schiit Lyr. It will give the 701's a bottom end that you probably never knew existed.

dude, that setup is epic!

Nice!  How is the synergy between your V-Dac and Valhalla?

Love that stand, have three of them myself. Too bad they leave dents on headphones with cushioned headbands

I guess you could put the LD in between the the Turntable and phono pre but you have to make sure that their is basically no gain, or you'd get clipping. I don't know if the LD has channel imbalance problem at that low of levels like some amps do.

That turntable has a built-in phono preamp so you simply treat it as any other analog device with RCA output (CD player, tape deck, etc). Just plug it directly into your amp and you're set.

Thanks. I really love it, which is why I can't quite yet justify upgrading to my dream headphones, the LCD2. Maybe one day when I am rolling around in extra cash...

I don't have much experience with other DACs in the V-DAC's price range or higher, so I am not qualified to make that comparison. However, my previous DAC (that I still use) was the uDAC, and all the distortion that I used to hear disappeared after getting the V-DAC, but this is more of a testimony to the V-DAC's quality than anything else.

Yeah, which is why you'll see that white foam that I "installed" so as not to damage my headband (since the HD650 doesn't have foam directly in the middle).

I actually used the HD650s on the stand unmodded and it was fine. Not really a fan of adding foam since to me it ruins the aesthetics which defeats the purpose of the stand for me. Now that I've only got two cans I bought the other model and it works fine.

I was thinking of getting the Asgard to drive my DT990 600s when they arrive... how's that sound for you?
