Does anyone know a way to stream radio URLs to the Sonica. I tried via Jriver mediacenter. The stream starts fine, but just stops after 30 seconds or so?

Hmmm, may need to get a couple...

Got an email.. Project cancelled. :(

I have LCD-2s and love the sound, but the weight and clamping force means they sit on my table. Anyone recommend something else to try?   Have Schiit BiFros->Gustard H10, so SE   Listen to Blues and classic rock with emphasis on vocals   Thanks!

I hate to ask a dumb question, but how does one open the cups without causing damage?

Hmmm, not absolutely positive. How can I be positive without taking them apart? I measure an open when metered. No movement of the cable seems to register a reading.

Thanks to all. My AD700's are still under warranty (hopefully can be fixed), but I thought that I may get these too and see which I like better. One channel went out. Not a cable issue. I suspect a bad headphone amp (won't name names), so they may be reported as "abused by owner" I was...

Looks like the best price available (except used) Brand New Audio technica ATH-AD900 ATH AD900 - eBay (item 220372818770 end time Apr-04-09 02:30:38 PDT) $234 shipped? Looking to replace some broken AD700 Thanks

Dbs, Thanks for the support. Kingwa agreed with you. Perhaps, just a bad switch or wiring to the preamp switch. Dale

Oh, by the way, I am quite pleased with the sound right out of the box. The bass seems to be much tighter than either the squeezebox internal DAC or the Oritek Zhalou. Mid a bit recessed, but nice.

Preamp mode works too...

At least the DAC seems to be working. I hooked up to my Squeezebox via coax and the line-out works beautifully. Just nothing out of the headphones at all now. Yes, I know about the pre-amp and super switches Just no sound at all. I may try pre-amp mode and see if that works as it should.

I emailed Kingwa and he was VERY gracious. Offered to help me fix. If this fails, then said that I could ship back at his expense and get the unit fixed and shipped back. I really hope that I can fix it without sending back. I would hate to have Kingwa be out USD$100. I am an engineer, but I...

Uggggghhh, it gets worse. Just plugged in my headphones and one channel does not work. Does look like customs opened the box and dropped the unit. What happens in this case? Thanks Dale

Got my Compass. I've got two issues. Not sure if they are bad enough to warrant sending back... Opinions: 1) The Power Switch seems to be broken. Doesn't go in or out without pushing/pulling. "On" seems to be in the out position. Not sure if the spring is dislodged. Might take off the...
