[QUOTE="Scubadude, post: 728842, member: 17459"] Hi Rodney, Just had to chuckle about the coincidence here ... listening to some Massive Attack on my HD800's driven by your old Hobkirk-Bouwman special as I type ... certainly in this setup the HD800's are no disappointment and displays a lovely tone, transparency and timber with great bass impact and texture. Incidentally I also share your dislike for death metal. R40k is a substantial amount number to spend on a headphone rig and should get you most any can (save for the latest multi k$ flagships) plus a good dac/amp. Havn't heard the combination or either of the components but from what I've read Xenithon's Nuprime DAC10-H / Focal Elear setup should tick your boxes. Happy hunting! [/QUOTE]
