Title: Hello Geekhack!
Post by: dryver on Tue, 18 November 2014, 11:32:25
Hello to all of my fellow keyboard enthusiasts  :))

I posted to here once a few months ago, but I never posted, so here I am again!
I have currently on my desk a custom Ergodox w/ MX Clears, a Plastidipped Ducky Shine 3 (Red LED) w/ MX Browns, and a Model M, with a few other mechs in storage.

I'm currently using my Shine 3, a Razer Naga Epic, and Sennheiser HD 598s.

The magni/modi set from schiit audio is a very good combo (DAC and headphone amp) at a good price.

there are also headphone amp/dac threads like this one:

I'd highly suggest the FiiO E6 (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005HJWWW8/) if you were looking for something cheap and cheerful that won't break the bank. Hi too!
