1) yes. 1a) I hear it in between songs whether streaming or listening to stored music.  I don't hear it when I set to Airplane mode. 1b) Yes but I only hear it in between songs. 1c) When playing a track. 2) No.  I'm listening using Westone ES50 CIEMS (sensitivity of 120 dB).

Has it been determined whether the Wave will directly support streaming apps (e.g. Tidal)?  Or only by connecting with a smartphone?  Thx in advance.

@warrenpchi Don't forget a badge for me!  I was missed being added to the Attendees list.  I pm'd @third_eye that I had posted in #101 that I plan to attend.  Thanks!

I ordered an Ether with a DUM cable terminated in an XLR connector.  This is the first time I'm using an XLR connection from headphone to amp.  But some of my amps only support an SE output.  Would it be better for me to: 1) get an XLR to 1/4" adapter, or 2) get another headphone cable from...

I plan to attend.  I don't need a table.  I'll bring some portable amps though.  And if I get my Ether and Pulse Xfi in time, I can bring those too.  Thanks.

Thanks to @Bill-P, Steph, and Wikia for organizing and hosting!  I had a great time checking out a bunch of great gear and meeting a number of head-fi'ers at my first meet.  Thanks also to @moedawg140 for helping me listen to a number of IEMs and to @jude for lending a number of IEMs to the IEM...

I really liked the Yggy>Black Widow combination at your table.  I brought over Warren's Ether and loved the sound coming from that combination.  I liked it better than the Chord Hugo>Liquid Carbon>Ether combination.  Since I already have the Liquid Carbon and Ether on order, I would have liked...

I'm planning to bring my Oppo PM-3 and some portable amps (CEntrance HiFi-M8, iFi micro iDSD, HRT Microstreamer, Resonessence Herus, Geek Out 720).  If by some miracle I happen to get my Pulse Xfi, I'll bring that too.   Since this is my first meet, I was planning to walk around more rather...

Great news!  Thanks Bill, and our gracious host Steph!

I'm anxiously awaiting getting moved from the Wait list to the Attend list!  Feels like I've been first on the Wait list for a while.

My order went through!  Now the wait begins.

I have a Pelican 1020.  The HiFi-M8 (just the unit itself) fits very snuggly.  But there's no room for any cables, and certainly not the power supply.  I also bought a case for a 5" GPS unit.  It will fit the HiFi-M8 and cables.  Here's the link:  ...

I'd like to be added to the list in case someone drops.  I missed CanJam and haven't actually been to a meet before.  I can bring my Oppo PM-3 and some portable amps (CEntrance HiFi-M8, iFi micro iDSD, HRT Microstreamer, Resonessence Herus, Geek Out 720).   Thanks, Doug

I pre-ordered a blue GO 720 in March.  The only email update I received was a generic update email in May or June.  I finally opened a ticket a couple of weeks and found out there are no more blue GO 720 units, they will only come in black.  Manny promptly sent me a black 720 which I got last week.

Ramblings, lol.  Yes, I've skimmed the Roxanne threads, including the 400+ page thread.  For various reasons, I don't think the Roxanne is for me.  I would like to listen to the universal Rox one day though.
