Thanks! You'll be pleased to know that since I started using Grahams PSU on the Squeezebox Touch and after a couple of other small tweaks it sounds even better now.

I use a pair of Grado PS1000 streamed through a Squeezebox Touch to a Majestic and then on to a Solo ULDE I always used GSP connecting leads. I have recently started using a decent PSU into the Squeezebox Touch. I have to say that the headphones are absolutely great with this setup. I have tried a variety of quality headphones in the past and I haven't found better. Hope this helps.

It's been quite some time since i've posted anything here, i hope you don't mind me chiming in. I have a set of HD800's with custom memory foam earpads and a double helix silver cable. They are hooked up to a Solo ULDE and they sound absolutely fantastic.The solo is fed via a majestic DAC. The latest HD800S would have to be significantly better/different for me to upgrade to what looks to be a pretty similar headphone thats had some tweaking.   As much as i love Sennheiser, and i have a set of 540 Ref 2's as well that i love to bits and use away from home or in bed, hooked up to a Voyager amp. However, i have my eyes formly set on Grado. I hope it's a good move.

I've been using a pair of HD 800S with a Solo ULDE and PSU1 for about a month now. The 800S were a worth while upgrade from HD700 and the Solo ULDE makes them sound wonderful.
