I recently upgraded my STX to a Bifrost/Valhalla set-up in plans to use the STX in my carPC.  Slight problem though... the STX is PCI-E and the carPC mobo is PCI... uhg.   With that said, my car setup will be PC->sound card->JBL MS-8->JL HD Amps->Seas Lotus Reference and Polk SR sub.  The...

So I have had the HD650s hooked up to an STX for about a year now and really enjoy them.  But now its time for a new dac/amp because I need to STX in my carPC.  With that said, I am looking at getting a Bifrost and matching it with a Valhalla or a Lyr.  Which of the 2 do you think would be the...

So I'm new on these forums and just getting into the high end audio scene.  I plan on making the May 29th date and am highly looking forward to it.   Currently I have no gear besides crappy cheap headphones and a set on bass-less Senn PC350.  I was wondering if you all knew of any good...
