Try switching default playback option to xtreme music (with and again without compass connected) in control panel>sound. What exactly does the error message pop up? Tried doing a search for "status: logically unavailable" and got nothing.

By the looks of it, it was a residue that came from the bubblewrap and that was pressed into the surface of the compass by the packaging foam.

Yes, as far as I know the DAC-19SE MkIII/and/or the Reference Three will have USB. (It's not quite certain whether the Reference Three is still coming or not.) It will be a DAC based on the mono PCM1704, it will either have two or four of those chips.

Yes, more or less (it's going through redesign). Here's a link to the previous version in English. As to the Reference Three, there's still an old page here, but that also will look different in the end.

Pronunciation is the biggest downside to the English language. The same spelling can have different meanings, and different pronunciations. And different spellings can sound exactly the same... Happy listening! ~Phewl.

Lol.... why do I feel as though I'm back in school again?

Finally bit the bullet and bought the compass! Now the wait for it arrive on my porch... hope it doesn't feel too long.

I just got the tracking no. from Cherry..my package is right now at Hong Kong.

However, the 'To' address in DHL page doesn't show my street address. Just my name,city,state and zip. I would guess they wouldn't ship a package without a street address ??

That's correct. No courier tracking page shows the full address, for obvious security reasons, as you wouldn't want it possible for people to find out where something expensive was being delivered.

Good stuff. I tend to recall the finish on mine looked odd initially, but the differences were down to where the polystyrene had been on the aluminium...

Damnit! It's a long time since I've been at school, but I do apologise for taking folk back to the nasty classroom.

How rubbish... there's me, genuinely trying to help a fellow Fi'er, and I'm ridiculed...

On a just-as-light note, I've recently been introduced to the benefits of satellite/cable TV, and I've got VH1 classic on. "Suzanne Vega - Luka" has just been on, and she's the total spit of my neighbour's wife...

~Phewl.

 

[Eric M]

Got my tracking # just now too. Also just realized I didn't specify the voltage I needed, hopefully they will automatically assume I need the 100-120V version since they are shipping to the USA...

Great song too! I was just listening to this about a week ago.
