OP, how do you like that compass? I've seen lots of talk about it, but haven't read much of it... It seems like that company sprang out of nowhere all the sudden...

It an amazing piece of machinery. I don't really know how to explain audio so I guess I'd just read some reviews off head-fi lol

If I were to ever die in the next month or so, I would like to be buried with there albums. I can't even begin to explain how music has impacted my life in the broad view of things. The only thing that can honestly make me cry is a sit down, when I'm depressed and lay in the dark with headphones on and just give "Comfortably Numb" or "Fade to Black" a listen on full blast and just look back at myself. I love music and if it were to die, then I would die. Long Live FLAC!!!
If I was ever unfortunate enough to loose my sense of hearing, I don't know how I would Live. I love music with all my heart. Even if the artist doesn't put on good music and he loves what he is doing, then by all means keep doing it !!!!!!

Except the sellouts aka Green Day

Long Live
-Pearl Jam ( Best sing I have ever heard and one of the most emotinal)
-Pink Floyd (For all the great adventures you broght upon my ears)
-Metallica (even though you sold out a little, i still love you)
-The Rolling Stones (Mainly due to the song of Angie, It reminds me of ever woman I have ever loved)
-Jethro Tull (Aqualong, How you are epic)
- Dave Matthews Band (The most epic live performances I have witnessed)
was right with you till you trashed greenday as I love almost all music

When im sad or blue i put on some Bob Marley, Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones or The Who or any type of good artist. I sit back and listen and the only thing that exists is music no thoughts of sadness no thoughts of future or past just the music.
