This may sound off topic but has anyone ever played the game Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver? I was asking because I am making a stand out of Fimo that resembles Raziels open fist for holding my T1's on. It's no where near done. That will be my headphone stand!
 
Also for kicks, here's my very first set-up, about 4 years ago:

 

Gotta laugh how it was the X-CANV8P and it's internal DAC and only the K701. How much my set-up has evolved...
 
 
An here's my current set-up:

 

 

 
The entire set-up is night and day different!


LOL,  I currently have those Altec L. speakers you had (in a 5.1 config) and looking to replace them with Audioengine A5+

THX...It Sounds Fantastic...since HE-500 is quite a bright headphone pairing it with a tube amp seems the rite choice...its one of my favorite pairing...i like it better then using a solid state amp..

So I ran the naked Alexander thing by the GF to see if she was cool with it. She said no way--she'd rather I have a statue of a naked woman on my desk holding my headphones than a statue of a naked man.
 
Her reasoning:
 
"I'd rather have to see statue-esque boobs every day than statue-esque balls."
 
She said she'd be cool with it if I could find a replica of David though. I guess he's hotter than Alexander?



There is a time in every man's life when an opportunity presents itself. This is that time. You have been given carte blanche to go out and get a marble statue of a naked lady to hold your A/V paraphernalia. Fire up your credit card and grab that brass ring. Destiny calls.

What's with the little white piece of wire going from the La Figaro towards a black piece of tape?
Kind of messes up the otherwise flawless look of the setup, if you ask me.

Also: what is the purpose of the TeraLink? Is there really any audible advantage to convert the USB signal? Or do you use it because you the DAC does not support USB?
