2 mc2301 (I also run an old Rotel amp to save the tubes) into Khorns (or magnapans which is what the rotel is currently hooked up to). JL Gotham sub. Currently using a marantz pre-amp/reciever thing I bought who knows when but it does have hdmi. Have a C2200 but it’s decoration. Have some other stuff but usually it is just plug the phone in and listen and chill. Have a bunch of Telarc CDs I listen to as well. Run my old Sony CD player.

Oh and I have two baby magnapans as rear channels doing a phantom center for “home theater”.

I have $3k Grado headphones. I could probably buy your house with what my stereo setups cost.

Controversial opinion here but getting into DSP makes a huge difference for headphones. IMO a more affordable set of headphones + DSP is better than spendy headphones and no DSP.

I have an RME ADI-2 DAC that I primarily use for speakers in my living room. But it has 5 bands of parametric EQ that can be used on headphones or the line out. I have a pair of low end Grados that I already like without DSP but they sound so much better with EQ

DSP = digital signal processing

DSP is the math that is done when applying a filter to digital audio. It's also a term for the specialized chips that do that math.

Why apply EQ to your audio? There's no such thing as a perfect speaker or headphone. Also no such thing as a perfect room. EQ gets you closer to perfect for way less money than spendy speakers and room treatment.

My marantz has a dsp with a microphone. I did the set up and decided it was entertaining but I don’t care about flat response and cranked everything up and played loud music with the Mc2301 clipping and tubes glowing purple with the JL maxed dimming the lights as the bass hits.

I watched a great video from some extremely autistic euro guy who demonstrated how a good flat pair of $150-200 headphones are better than most of those $2000k+ ones, wish I could find it.

Anyone have recommendations for inexpensive bookshelf speakers that are efficient? I have my eye on a cheap tube amp/receiver (Rockville blutube $143 currently) and want a pair of speakers for my home office mainly to have decent sound for zoom etc but also music and tv.

Edit: decided to skip the tubes as I am sure they would end up ticking me off and decided I wanted a sub so before it spiraled out of control I went with Black Friday Amazon specials of Polk T15 ($120) and Fosi BT40D pro 2.1 amp ($87) some speaker wires with banana clip ($17) and a JBL car audio sub I had in the attic (free since I had it and it already has speaker wire).
