That is very, very nice...

wow if grado sold a limited edition red ps1000 like that, i'd have no problem paying full price for it.

Those are Jaben Alessandro/Grado aluminium cups. They are pretty cheap to buy and easy to fit.

I would like to see metallic blue, maybe cobalt that would be really nice.

Personally I would be happy to get a plain, chrome pair (I am still kicking myself for selling the chrome 325is I bought off Dubstep Girl all those years ago). Not sure why they insist on the red.
 
I have seen folks strip it off, If I recall correctly they used something odd like oven cleaner.

I got that from someone else Head-fi.  I wish I could remember where so I could give credit where credit is due.  I hole-punched circles of blue electrical tape. Now they match the rest of my gear too!

 
That's brilliant.  I didn't even know they made colored electrical tape.  Blue would be perfect to use for me as my PC glows blue.  I could do this for the white LEDs on my case, too.  Hmmmm.

Maybe acetone?  Could be wrong, but it's what I use to get fingernail polish off of our tile floors at the store.

Awesome setup! I really like this one. Congrats!

What's the Behringer thingy above the EQ?

It's a Behringer SRC2496. I use it as a digital source selector for the PC, CD player and sat receiver, and it's also an oversampler and jitter reducer : it converts all 44,1, 48 and 88,2 PCM sources from the CD (AES-EBU), sat (TOS-LINK) or from the PC(SPDIF) to AES-EBU 96 kHz, 24 bits. It's also a good DAC, and the symetrical outputs are connected to a JENSEN transformer to convert symetrical XLR to asymetrical RCA and then these outputs are connected to the input of the LITTLEDOT I+.
The Behringer DEQ2496 is used for a room equalisation in digital domain before the DAC (MUSILAND MD10) and the integrated amplifier (ATOLL IN80SE).

You should play 'Battle Stations' by Winger every time you show somebody this part of your rig.

This is my new station setup after moving. Nothing too fancy and you can't see the HP4 amplifier.
 
I like the sound of the apogee and the motu uses the same AD/DA chips as some RME products. The Presonus does the job, does't seem to colour anything which makes me happy, the only down side is 20 Hz to 20kHz frequency range which i leaves me feeling i'm not hearing the full potential of the HD 650.
 
(Sorry about the picture quality, i only use an iPhone 4)
 
 
    

Maybe I don't know because I'm new, but why would 20hz-20khz not let your HD650's reach their full potential? As far as I know that is the human hearing range.

I really enjoy them, recently moved so the room they are in are untreated so i preferred them when they were in a treated room. Given the money i would get a set of Adam A7's and use the KRK's as secondary speakers but they are really detailed and the mixes done on them so far seem to translate well.

Musically they make everything sound good, professionally i think they accurately tell the truth. I really like the front facing bass ports too, rear facing in a small room to me just isn't a great idea.

Once they are back in a treated room, before getting the Adams i think my first priority is a sub-woofer.

 
 
Nice ogg,
 
I've had mine for a while and think they're great.  Lots of options now with powered speakers, but I'm happy with 'em.  Have the E-MU 0404 USB connected to them (balanced) and the WA2 (SE).
 
Good times!
