1st impression..compass quite boost bass a bit..more refined than zero dac...n much2 powerful. havent test it properly..since my ear not sensitive enough to hear difference..n perhaps let it 'burn-in' a while

QUOTE(jkleejk @ Aug 29 2009, 12:57 PM) My recent setup: why u dont use compass dac out rather than hp output?Audio-GD Compass with Earth,Moon, Sun Opamp. Combo with Silveramp. Not so good synergy, SQ is better from compass+Opamp itself with UM Quad Custom. |

QUOTE(bahathir @ Aug 30 2009, 04:37 PM) Ooo.. That is bad. Wondering why after many feedbacks from head-fiers, but the hp out is bad. BTW, generally the op-amps if for the headphone out. Can you describe the how 'bad' it is? You still have some burn-in, and hope you like it. Aha, you now are now start listening 'thing', which was invisible or not exist previously. Good gears are scary but satisfying.  This is what we called resolution or details. Thank you. compass generally is a budget dac/amp (other than zero dac).. QUOTE(jkleejk @ Aug 30 2009, 07:23 PM) u got me wrong, when u connect compass hp to silveramp..ur already double amp..thats why dac out is have better sqCompass HP output to Silveramp is no good sound. But when Compass DAC output to Silveramp is good. But Compass DAC/Amp is good either but Silveramp is better than Compass Amp IMO. Anyway i cant make conclusion 1st. Still in burning process. |
