You sir, are the reason I bought the KSC75 (modded the **** out of it), and started my head-fi (hifi?) journey. Pretty much when I think back to the old head-fi I equate my experience to you, Duggeh (Jecklin floats and Taket H2 indeed), and Uncle Erik (hilarious). Also mwilson, who sold me a pair of defective iems (Shure's flagship at the time)- never confronted him about it.

 
Quite a jump up from the KSC-75's to that gorgeous Stax setup....
 
I agree 100% though, I joined right around the same time and have many fond memories of reading posts by those you mentioned. Sadly my setup hasn't progressed to nearly the same point yours has.

Hey, you still haven't completely left those KSCs behind. I see a bit of Koss legacy in that jawdropping setup of yours...

 

[MorbidToaster]

That's nothing. If he takes pictures of the full set up at home you're all in for a treat.

 Get home soon and take those pics!

Okay, as I was doing a little cable test today, so I took the good camera to snap some photos. Here you go:

Great, thanks. Seems like a nice little combo

If a regular (non-Head-Fier) person saw that combo and also saw that it was considered compact....

Well, it is quite compact. The entire stack would fit inside the Schiit Asgard and is only ~1/5th of the weight. That's tiny!

I think we need a more zoomed out shot to get a proper sense of scale.

At last got myself a power regenerator - PS Audio Power Plant P5. So here is my rig as it is now:
 


 
Also been busy a few days with testing of few power cords and as result I bought Neotech NP-3200 (1.5m length, China Oyaide connectors) to use it with WES and Rainbow Air Hi-End (2m length, Furutech FI-E11(G) connectors) to use it with Akurate... I already have two Black Dragon power cords (4 and 8 ft length, Furutech FI-E11(G) connectors), one of them (probably 8 ft) is going to be used to supply power to Power Plant P5, the second one I probably going to sell (probably 4 ft).
Here the fotos of mine Neotech NP-3200 (first foto) and Rainbow Air Hi-End (not mine, but mine is exactly the same... it's a cable that one man making in mine hometown) (second foto):
 

 
P.S. Sorry for my bad English and crappy photos (Ipad 3...)

I rotate my headphones, depending on mood, etc. I also have a set of Denon AH-D1001s, which is my more usual lab phone, but lately I've been working a lot of hours, and spending most of that time at my bench. I find the 5000s more comfortable for long sessions. I usually use them in my office or at home, but I haven't had time to listen at home lately, since I'm always at work.

I lock them up at night, and keep them on a hook, out of the way, when I'm not listening.

Hats off to you

Oh yeah pictures.



This is like a week old but I'll update it when I get home.

 

Nice setup. What is the name of the D/A ?
