Christ alive thats an awesome set up. I dont like portrait monitors and I think it would probably look better without them, but if theyre useful to you, then so be it.
 
An Amp (I assume) and good headphones, running from an mp3 player with one of the worst sound qualities out there, bit of a waste? :p

Nice setup though. :)

An ipod touch/class playing ALAC through the LOD isn't the worst source out there imo.

I use the chord DAC which is on top of the amp for the majority of my headphone listening. I must say it is amazing.

I have a essence STX in my main pc and it makes it sound like onboard lol.

Thanks for your kind comments guys.
Cheers Yaka, those LODs are very good esp for the price. The Headphone holders are Sennheiser ones. Only a few places sell them and I had to wait a few weeks for them to arrive.

I couldn't fit the side displays in landscape. I mean they fit in that position but the angle was too great. I had one arrangement with the 30 inch screen on top of the three 24s. That looked great but because the pixels are so small on the large screen I couldnt read text very well etc.

I will that give that arrangement another try lol.

Having the side displays in portrait is really good for documents and esp forums and blogs etc (long scrolling pages).

You have some really nice equipment there, r2d2, although I'm not sure that it's laid out very well, going by the photographs.

I got to a stage like you with loads of equipment that just wasn't nicely arranged. You need to strip it all down and start again. It will pay dividends, believe me.

If I was you I'd direct your money towards some bigger desk(s), perhaps getting a carpenter in to build a really nice continuous workspace around the walls? Or just rearranging your desks so that the whole area is more user-friendly...

True, it's not the worst, but ipods aren't exactly at the top of the mp3 player sound quality list.:)

Sultan of Ping had a good suggestion, and you wouldn't necessarily have to bring anyone in if you are reasonably practically minded to do it either. A couple of pieces of worktop placed along the two walls, meeting in the corner is pretty easy to do, and a couple of basic draws/shelves from Ikea could hold the fronts up and provide the storage you have. Nice looking and pretty cheap.:)

I hear you which is why I listen through the laptopo-> chord dac mainly. I have thinking about getting the Chord qbd76 for my main pc.

Thanks for your suggestions. Some great feedback there. Its an ongoing process and that is a temporary setup. lol.

Cheers :)

It's an HTC Magic as far as I am aware. Looks nice in the dock. It inspired me the other day to purchase a dock for my Touch Pro so that is on it's way soon.

Looks sweet. Is the Touch pro by HTC?

I see a couple of people not on the apple IPHONE bandwagon lol. I like the Iphone but I just think its too expensive compared to other phones.
 
yeh, this is the touch pro:

I'm really glad I got my Touch Pro, love it and when the contract runs out then I'm pretty sure I'll get another HTC model.

Hey Mate, what is that mouse pad your using?

I am in the process of buying a lot of stuff for my games room, and am after a pad that is large that i can put my new keyboard on and mouse like yours.

Thanks.
