Pretty epic rig, didn't know where to look with all the different colours haha.

The photo of the amp and cans looks great.

Beastie.
I like how the valves stick out the top of the amp.

Many thanks for the feedback's. The most important thing in the amplifier is not how it looks! The key is what kind of sound it produces! I prefer blues and rock music (Deep Purple, Manfred Mann's earth band, Pink Floyd, Alvin Lee) - This amp produces a deep bass volume, and beautifully conveys the high frequencies. Complete drum sound is phenomenal, vocal are also very clear. Not everyone can understand. Most of my friends are quite happy with their AC97 sound=)

i understand to some extent what your saying, im assuming your audio is lossless?

Hi all. I tried to get the powerful system for a reasonable price and that's what happened:

And then he goes and gets a 690 :blink:

Seriously though, "reasonable" is of course relative to each situation and person. I recently got myself a Titan, which is probably more unreasonable than a 690 if we're being picky ^_^

And the 690 really is one sexy card, absolutely agree on that one.

Anyway, really like this rig! I was about to ask for a pic of the case closed when I realized the storm trooper has a tendency for windowlessness.

Very nice

I'm liking the difference of colors in there. Most systems don't pull it off like that.
Well done.

A few days ago I decided to swap my current system SSD on "hi-end" samsung 840 PRO series, which is absolutly brilliant! Currently one of the fastest SSD drives...
Speed test; Rapide mode - ON
