I use mine to store my RPG launchers and IED devices. Works pretty well I think.
Does anyone know of a good carrying case that would work well with the HD800's? I say that because the box they come in, although it's nice, is just too big and impractical to carry around (it reminds me of a jewelry box). When I visited a friend in New York City a few months ago I wanted him to try them out, so I literally held the HD800's in my hand the entire time while in the airport and on the plane so that possible damage was kept to a minimum. I did get some strange looks, as one might imagine.

So, I have a DA-160 DAC from Burson which I use with my Soloist amplifier (Burson), and with a Schiit Lyr now and then as well. My main headphones are the Sennhseiser HD800.
I am happy with the setup as it is, I'm really inclined to change my DAC for something newer, something that can retrieve more micro-detail and is more spatial than the DA-160. My main headphone is the HD-800 and I usually use it with the Soloist. Usually, I listen to Jazz (Dave Brubeck, Charlie Parker, Keith Jarret...), and classic rock'n'roll (think Velvet Underground, Mutantes, Beatles, etc.).
NOW: The IMPORTANT bit is... I'd like your suggestions on a new DAC for me that goes well with my setup and music style, BUT its maximum cost has to be BELLOW USD$1'000.00, please.
Also, since I live in Brazil, I'd love if you put links where I can buy the suggest DAC (the DAC producer or seller must ship worldwide, obviously)
TL/DR: Please, I need a good DAC recommendation for my HD800 (to be used with Burson Soloist, as hp-amp). I'd like something cheaper than USD$1'000.00, please
Thank you, so very much!!

DAC under $1k? Schiit BiFrost w/ Uber or Gungnir, Metrum Octave, W4S DAC-1. Sure I am missing some.
