  It appears you're using the same isolation feet for your gear, what are those? Whats the device on the bottom shelf? That shelving looks very sturdy by the way, excellent job!

They are just aluminum stock I machined. Nothing special, but I made them myself so they match. The bottom shelf is my custom Switch/DAC
 
It has a pupdac and a RCA as inputs controlled by right switch, and 6 outputs controlled by the knob. 
 
The shelving was a quick and dirty job, at this point I am just trying to get through grad school and get a job, the next desk I will build from the ground up correctly, rather than just bolting junk onto my old stuff.

Step One: Longer racks for your headphones.
 
Looking at your pictures made me worried for your DT and T50RP!

In search of Mid-range nirvana 
 
It would probably have cost me less to have one high-end rig ... but who's kidding who?  I wouldn't have been content with that either!
