Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
Hi I don’t have a Mojo 2 yet I have a Meridian 218 streamer/dac. I’m not sure how good the dac is on my 218 but my gut feeling is to save some money and just buy a Magni + and use my 218 analogue outs- gooner26

Graham Slee Solo Ultra Linear vs Lehmann Audio Black Cube Linear
Hi everybody. I am looking for some advice from anybody who has heard these 2 Amplifiers in a side by side comparison, possibly with higher end Grado headphones. I know through research in Britain the Graham Slee Solo range are said to work really well with the GS1000i's. Regards Danny.- gooner26

Why do Tube amps supposedly work best with the GS1000i?
Thanks for the advice stang. I would have thought the warmth and liquid sound of valves would drown out the Grado's dynamics? I'm thinking of purchasing the Woo Audio 6 SE (basic config) regards Danny- gooner26

Why do Tube amps supposedly work best with the GS1000i?
You will have to excuse my naievety ( think that's how you spell it) but I'm interested to learn why Valve amps work great with Grado more than Solid State amps do? I tried a BCL with my SR60's & RS1i's and they seemed to synergise better with my SR60's. Why? Also if i buy a GS1000i will it...- gooner26

Woo Audio for RS1i's
Is it essential to purchase the 6 SE with optional upgrades? Also if I use the Low impendance input on the 6SE does it match up well with the 32 ohm Grado's?- gooner26

I may buy the GS1000i soon and it seems Woo Audio's amplifiers seem to get recommended with Grados more than anybody else, also does the Woo Audio 6 se have switchable gain to suit the GS1000i's impendance? Regards Danny- gooner26

And if not would you say the PS1000's deserve better amplification? There no chance i can demo these two together in the UK! I have already had extended listening sessions with the Lehmann and was mightely impressed. Regards Danny- gooner26
