I took this a while ago but setup remains the same. Don’t think I’ll ever get tired of it. ![DSC03356](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/headphones/original/1X/3405a023ad0176f6bb9a92787b5ce1bd43b4ee69.JPG) ---

Some nice rigs in here already! Definitely appreciating all the tubes … and especially the Bottlehead (local company) and Cavalli amps! Here’s a couple quick/dirty shots of my “day job” office rig: ![Office%201](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/headphones/original/1X/52370e4b70852530356b527446ce0f2a73c5eb55.jpg) ![Office%202](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/headphones/original/1X/ee6c350fb4f50bb493631d1ad063968aacb853ac.jpg) The setup comprises: - Schiit Yggdrasil Analog 2/USB Gen 5 - Rega Planar 3 (2016) w/ upgrades - Schiit Mani Phono Pre-amp - Woo Audio WA5-LE Mk2 w/ parts upgrade package - Focal Elear Yggdrasil is fed from the office workstation running TIDAL, through True-Fi. The Planar 3 has a [Groovetracer Reference Sub-platter](http://groovetracer.com/subplatter_groovetracer.htm) and [Record Weight](http://groovetracer.com/Recordweight.htm), the Rega Reference (White) Belt, and the new NEO TT-PSU. Various other headphones get dragged in here when I fancy something a bit different. ---

This is my primary headphone rig … well, the bits that are ON the desk anyway. The custom streamer isn’t shown (hides under the desk until I finish the case for it): ![Main](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/headphones/original/1X/1a702f8b35307b42ca49b4249531a3711b344583.jpg) Headphones, from left to right, you have Fostex TH900 Mk2 (Emerald), JPS Labs AB-1266 Phi, Audeze LCD-4, Sennheiser HD800S and HD660S, Sony MDR-Z1R and finally the Focal Utopia. The DAC is a a Chord DAVE in it’s “Choral” series stand. The amps are dual Woo Audio WA234 MONO Mk2 mono-blocks. You’ll have to excuse the funny little desktop speaker sneaking in on the side (Soundsticks III) … that’s just used for basic sound output/cues from the Mac Pro. And it’s very hard to see/photograph the color on the Fostex, but the Emerald Green is very pretty in person: ![TH900-Mk2-Emerald](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/headphones/original/1X/8d30c0c41590ce4e39a8efdc232193c813df1eec.jpg) ---

That looks like a lot of fun! If you have access to either Sonarworks Reference or True-Fi, make sure to give it a try with the Elear (and in particular in comparison to the Clear). Love to see if you find it as effective there as I do. At some point I need to get my ears around the AEON Closed. ---
