Thanks,

Do you know about Head Fi, lots of info there. Very slow site though.

I have the Audio gd C-2C which I got from China great match for my 650's. I previously used the Heed CanAmp now sitting idle very good as well. Where are you getting the 650's for €100, hell of a bargain.

Yeah, I've been on Head-Fi, plenty of good info on that site, Audio-GD seem to be very popular over there.
In the end I went for one of these, should do the job.

Any DAC suggestions? Was looking a the Spitfire MK2, LittleDot and V-Dac or DACMagic or a Beresford? Decisions eh!!

That amp looks nice, best of luck with it. How much was it?

I actually have the V-Dac and it is first class. I can only compare it with the E-MU 0404 which I had before and the V is much better. I wouldn't know about the others. Decisions indeed but I suppose we're lucky to have a few bob to spare for these goodies.

Went for the Spitfire mk2, a bit of a shot in the dark but hopefully it will sound decent. It's listed for £250 on some sites but I'm getting it from holland for €165 del. Promotion on it at the moment.

Well that's my headphone rig sorted, now it's time to figure out EAC!!!
