I was provided it for free by Newegg to review. So I figured I'd use it. :) Also it's modular so it is quite handy. My next best PSU is a Corsair TX850W and it is not modular. And thanks!

Are those Sony XB500 ?
XB700.

I bought the XB700 back at release. Quite a while ago now actually. I chose it over the XB500 because I liked the bass better but I admit the XB500 has a bit tighter bass. I use these a lot depending on the music I'm listening to at the time. What you don't see in the picture though but you do see the cord...is I'm wearing Audeze LCD2's at the moment of the picture. By far the best headphones I've used to date.

@Devon68 I uploaded the wallpaper to my photobucket if you want it. I only have it in 1920x1080 though. You might find a higher res online.
