Possible upgrades for hd8xx stack?

Hi schiitters.

I currently have my hd8xx (modded to remove that weird foam and makes it sound like hd800s), setup on a bifrost multibit (either gen5 USB or unison, I kinda forgot) paired with a Midgard. I think my headphones termination is in 4.4 and I just have an XLR adaptor for the ole Midgard. Haven't changed the setup for a few years and am wondering if it's time to change it up a little?

I am not thinking of changing the DAC, I got it for a great price and it is wonderful! I am thinking maybe changing out the amplifier. Locally on Facebook, there are offerings for a Lyr 3, and a Valhalla 2. Not sure if either would be an upgrade from my Midgard? Mostly looking for some popular opinion + suggestions on what might be worth grabbing. I don't want to spend a ridiculous amount, so maybe suggestions under $500 lol. Preferably cheaper! The lyr 3 is $300 local, and the Valhalla 2 is $150, both obo

Thanks!

Edit: also throwing jot2/3 in the ring?

Where to get Mirra 2 parts?

Hi guys, so turns out my Mirra has damage, the screw base one this part of the arm sheared off, making the arm moving in and out less secure and stable. It's technically useable, but I would like to fix. I cannot seem to find anywhere selling arm assembly, or this part, or anything in between. Just the arm pad, which I do not need. So I am wondering if anyone knows where I can get one of these? Thanks

Have some more stuff from a prior lab:

- EVGA 2080 TI XC $225 + shipping: works well. All normal use

- 4x 1tb NVME's within an Asus hyper m2 x16 card $450 + shipping: cool card for adding a bunch of extra nvme slots and keeping them cool. Better used with bigger nvme I am sure, but I only had 1tbs. The 990 Evo is nearly new, the others ones have definitely been used, but all in good health! I only used 2/4 slots but had some other nvme I wanted to add to fill the card for sale lol. All drives reformatted for ext4

Thanks!

Selling off my big set of ram. This is 4x(2x32) sets, so a total of 8x32 sticks. Ran a memtest on these and they're all working great. Good for a workstation!

~~Selling all for $800 including shipping and the fee~~
