I hope to get my 02 US tomorrow or Saturday.

What's inside one of these things, chip-wise?

Is it Linux compatible?

Anyone know how this fares against the audio-g compass?

Hi, I'm interested in the Monitor 02 US but I'm wondering, if you can mute those headphone outs (via software)?
And how good is the built in headphone amp? (in terms of hiss, gain and overall sound quality)

Thanks!

I'd love to know how it compares to the Essence ST.
Hint, hint, for owners of both

Tip: If you're in Foobar2000, make sure you set it to WASAPI /KS and to 16 bit or else Foobar2000 will have a cry. I got mine for $137US from hifiakon on Ebay.

I'm thinking about getting the 02 US. If you have to set foobar to 16 bit then how do you get 24 bit to work. Do the current drivers work in ASIO under XP SP2?

Why would you have to set foobar to 16 bit?

It is definately better than my STX with 3 X lme49720na opamps but just different from my st with 3x lme4970na's.

Much better value than the Xonars.

Yes you can mute the headphone amp in software.

Damn, looks like my package is lost.

Left China last Wednesday and according to the USPS it never arrived in the US at all.

It's EMS so I should had received it by now.

Great.

Mine got to me (in Michigan) in like 5 days. I'd check with the seller, which seller did you go through? I bought mine form coolfungadget.

I went with coolfungadget. He will check on it tomorrow with his PO (China Post). USPS claims that the package never arrived in the US.

Woopee.

Where in the US can this be purchased?

 

[HotHead]

In a dark alley or maybe under a bridge. No, wait, I heard kids are selling them out of their cars after school.

So the package was in the US since yesterday. Geez looks like the flight was delayed from China to the US.

Oh well, will most likely get it tomorrow.
