Picture taken with my tablet camera, Acer Iconia A500 with Android 4.0 ICS....its not bad, first time I've used it and I'm real happy with this picture. The sun is beaming directly in the window next to the HE5LE's and this thing is showing no glare....my nice camera shows glare.....

Anyway I just have stuff all over...LOL....TADAC is half on top of some Schiit and half a foot away...my Grado's top right and HE5LE's top left(Grill is not silver on the earpiece, its Black, wierd reflection)..SB Touch(Can you name the album playing??)***, Virtue 2.2 behind it and Piano M1 proudly on the right with a dock for ???? on top of the Piano??? (Can you guys guess.....LOL).***

Australian Grado SR125's modded by me- the Limba wood earpieces make them sound great, they used Limba to make some very serious violins back in the day. The only thing stock is some plastic from the original earcups and the wire headphone band, cord and earpiece bracket assemblies...LOL :thumb:

I am very happy with it. I was starting to investigate DAC's and was afraid I would need to spend $2000 or more when Stereophile had that nice endorsement, and my dealer got it in. It makes old CD's sound much more real, and with it my CD's approach the quality of the vinyl! The 294 with the
12" arm and the properly damped Grado Gold is very good...
Thanks, AJ!
