Any portable audiophiles?

It had been awhile, but I dusted off my favorite portable audio rig and jammed during my breaks at work today. I put this setup together 5 years ago to take to Germany, as I left my home-fi tube setup back in storage. Just wondering if there are any other Head-Fi’ers here.
Here my Fostex HP-V1 portable tube amp all fired up:
Here a photo of the Teclast T51 on top:
I have always been a big fan of the richness and natural warmth of tube sound, a large soundstage, and balanced sound. This setup surprisingly delivers. I get about 7-8 hours per charge with the Fostex and about 11 from the T51.
The Teclast is one of the best portable DAP’s I have heard...the sound clarity is incredible with dual Wolfson WM8740 DACs and either a OPA2604 burr-brown opamp for driving its dedicated line out or a dedicated Philips NXP chip for the headphone out. The combo will drive just about any headphones with grace.
The week sucked...but Ahhhhh....it has been a good day.
