What's that on the bottom?

 
The bottom black section is the amp with the preamp sitting on top. Due to its size/weight (92 pounds), it's designed to be decoupled to better negotiate space in the listening room - either vertical or horizontal or even on two different shelves.
 
Below is a pix of Humpty Dump put back together again front-to-rear.

It actually stifles theft as it takes two folks to carry it away from your home. Any single robber leaves it and goes for the DVD player.

Very nice.  Good to see some Headroom.

Thanks.  I've had it a couple of years.  I just checked the Headroom web site for the first time in a long time and see that their desktop amps are discontinued.  I'm glad I bought mine when I did, though I guess there's always the used market.  I've been very satisfied with this setup.

That's an awfully nice work rig.  Based on the image I assume you do NOT work from home.

 
Thanks.  That's correct, I do not.  I spend all day at a desk at work and can listen to music the entire time if I want.  So it made sense for me to invest in a nice work rig.  I rarely listen to music at home.

I have the mini stack and like it a lot but haven't used it in quite a while.  I'd sell it but it makes such and awesome desktop rig I'm afraid to part with it.

That is almost  identical to the set up I have next to my bed.  Headroom desktop amp, Denon D-7000.  Apple lossless files from Sonos zone player into the Headroom via toslink.  I think the Headroom is an excellent amp/dac and pairs well with the Denons.  I too was very disappointed to see that Headroom discontinued their desktop amps.  They are kind of like a "Swiss Army Knife" of headphone amps.  Very versatile.
