Hello all! I just came across this awesome thread and thought I'd drop a couple of pics of my main set up and my desk rig. I'm using a vintage Yamaha RX-Z1 (circa 2002) AV Receiver driving Definitive Technology Studio Monitor 450's (main L&R), a Def Tech C/L/R 2002 (center), along with three NHT Super Zero rear wall mounted surround speakers and a pair of Realistic Minimus Ones as my front ambience speakers. Other gear includes an Oppo BDP-103 Blu-Ray player, Apple TV 4th gen., and two vintage pieces by Sony that I still use from time to time: a CDR-W33 Pro CD Player/Recorder, and a MDS-JB930 Mini Disc Recorder (on the bottom shelf next to the video game consoles). And I also have a first generation Sunfire True Subwoofer that is still going strong!

You sir need to get some serious help. How about submitting an actual comment instead of that drivel.

Michael33rsI think he meant in terms of drool-worthyness of the equipment pictured above. Hence the ear-porn

DovahkiinHello, Dovahkiin. You may be right, but I still take umbrige in the way that was said. Very distasteful in my opinion. Just saying. Nothing about the way that was written sounds complimentary to me. My daughter is in one of those photos, both on my desk, and on my equipment rack.
Michael33rsi just like the setup a lot, pretty coosy, also i have some english

StopItGetSomeHelpits like a purple/pink/neon blue theme hard to tell in the dark with the pics. Main monitor is the curved ips rog 100 hz 1440x3550 out of the pic is a DV with Senh 660s dragonfly red and a audioengine d1 i switch between the 2
pvrseDo you think the 660s was worth the asking price? Do you have anything to compare them to?

not as high end but i think the setup overall is very cosy. I'd take aluminum blocks over AIO's everyday though, i dont know, i just like the thought of being able to use them forever, noctua always support newer mounting solutions. i use the 2000x's and x2's with the simple mayflower odac. The top picture is before i decided to upgrade BTW, i just like the color combination
pvrsei want to see all of it, could you turn on the lights?

pvrseby different do you mean that the 800 series sound signature is unrelated to the 600 series or do you mean its the same signature but just better?

StopItGetSomeHelpthe 800 series to my ears with any amp has a signature that is so sharp filled with clarity that for your every day listen out of all the open back CANS ive used the 660s are the absolute best sub 1k. Extremely balanced, low impedience, great with any music thrown at em even bass filled rap. Remember sen is all ab0ut tubes solid state doesnt do the 600+ lines the justice
pvrseThanks. Well that unfortunate, i only have a simple solid state capable of driving 600ohm headphones. They say that dac/amps doesnt need to be expensive to be good so would that mean i could just pick up a 300USD tube amp then? have you tried any low end tube equipment?
