Yay! Another Melbourne Meet  Unfortunately I'll be out in the country during the meet so I might not be able to make it depending on how far away I am from V-Line. Is their a deadline for when I have to tell you whether I can come or not? Thx!

Getting a better source would help a long way as getting a amp might not fix the hissing. My UM1 (also quite a sensitive IEM with low impedance) hissed alot with a Fiio E3 and somewhat with the Fiio E5 as well. It also depends on where your going to be using your IE8 with, if you primarily use...

I'd be interested in the CDP as well

Hey, hope its not too late but I'd be interested in going to this meet as well.

I'm in melbourne as well

I've tried reseating the HDAM already (several times) and I've tried pressing the super button and also the pre-amp switch as well, but it doesn't make any difference. I've tried taking the jumpers off as well but that didn't fix the problem. The only thing I haven't done that comes to mind is...

Truth be told I've left my compass on for the pass few days for burn in, but it was fine up till now with no problems. I've tried restarting my comp, reopening foobar, using Directsound's USB DAC driver but it still hasn't done any good so far. I don't really have any other means to test the...

A Plea for help. I've been burning in my compass for a while now and it was fine so far. But I left it on to burn it in over dinner and by the time I came back, the sound has gone. I can't get it to play the music when I'm playing files through foobar. It was still working before dinner when I...

Seeing it seems to be US dominated I thought I'd write sth different :P Studying at Monash University in Melbourne, Australia for a Bachelor of Pharmacy (wasn't a failed med student, I actually want to study pharmacy :P). Also got accepted in Melbourne Uni as well. I also applied to the UK...

Hi I need a little help here. How do you guys get music to play through the compass over usb? Should my computer automatically recognise the usb? I'm really sorry but i've never done this before. I just got my compass and now I just can't wait to hear it . Thx [edit]: nvm, problem's been...

Are there any differences (audio-wise) between the current production batch and older/vintage makes? Anyone out there that has tried both? Also If I were to get one, would it be better to get a vintage or current make (new)? (factoring in price/sound etc.)

Pig's intestine, Pig's liver, Ox stomach, steamed radish cubes and mushroom in a noodle soup? It's not strange for me given my cultural background, but I think it'll seem strange to others especially those in the west. But it is really delicious! A pic of what I'm talking

OMG that is the best design so far. csroc i say you take advantage of your position as designer and choose the hello kitty version as the final design. The rest of our opinions don't matter (aside from mine that is). It looks much better then the other designs with the superman-esque logo...

The chinese in the pic with the doves and the earth says something to the same effect as "epic review". The women is actually an ad They (peete and the other guy from audio-gd [which i assume is King wa]) replaced that ad with the audio-gd one. You'll get it if you see the rest of the pics...

there's actually more of those pics about the ads in the forum. It becomes more of a cartoon. Heres the link: Compass¹úÍâ²âÆÀ[ºÎÇ컪DIY¼¼ÊõÂÛ̳] I didn't include those because I didn't want to take up too much space here EDIT: If you look closely, peete/Curra is featured in everything...

Its a bit OT but I found another pic by the artist in King wa's forum. It's quite interesting, I'm not sure what it's supposed to mean with peete's name on the sash (?). Discuss! There's another with peete/Curra serving as the spokesman in an ad.

I actually like the first front panel. My main gripe is the symbol for volume. I just don't like the looks of the pictogram and would rather is stay as a word. Course I'm fine either way (and can live with any design change), the first one just looks more appealing to me.

As of the time of this writing, It is simply Miles Davis peforming in a club. But it's such a beautiful picture with lighting/smoke shrouding his body, don't you think?
