Hoping someone recently had run into this symptom. Searching this massive thread shows 1 (or maybe 2) people have hit this issue. Anyone had and fixed/addressed volume issue when playing back DSD source? non-DSD, the volume control works, no issue. But "out of the blue" the DSD contents will...

Thanks. I'll need to play with this crossfeed some more. I've set it to max, listened to few sample tracks, and i cannot hear any difference between none and max settings. Weird. Maybe it's the tracks i'm playing. Or, maybe has to do with Elear headphone. I'll play with some more. But...

Thanks. At max setting, do you notice any supposed change to the listening soundstage, with all music source formats? If so, then do you have the crank up the volume considerably to notice that difference?

Hello, Well, Chrod Mojo 2 is out on sale, so grabbed a new unit and got delivered today. The first Mojo i've had since 2016. Playing music formats (through Roon) all sorts of formats from 24bit 44.1KHz to DSD256. I've been using Mojo with Focal Elear headphone. Still saving up for the Focal...

Balanced output headphone is BS, IMHO Narrowed down to these 2, FPGA DACs FTW ! a) Mojo 2 b) Hugo 2 Not drinking CHORD Coolaid here, but there's something "special" IMHO in buying DACs designed by someone/company from "ground up", where listening is emphasized more than math and science.

Hello, If i can't get a recommendation for a dedicated headphone amp from this forum, then i think such recommendation is hopeless (???). I've got a budget of around $2,500 for following requirements, a) Always on, not turned off, b) DAC with DSD256 native (DoP is acceptable) c) Streamer...

Thanks. Any recommendation on a particular aftermarket battery? If you remember which one you bought? 380 battery need to unscrew few screws? What do you mean? Is the battery held down with screws? Well, shoot...... :(

Anyone (successfully) replaced with aftermarket AK380 battery? If AK380 is going to be powered through USB through its cradle (and always powered off before removing from cradle), then does it still need internal battery for any purpose?

It's July 2023, can AK still do battery replacement on AK380? How do you contact AK about battery replacement on AK380? astellnkern@astellnkern.com ??? I'm in North Carolina, Raleigh area. I'll also call Moon Audio in Cary tomorrow, and see what they say. Thanks.

Hello, I would like to place order for LAVRICABLES's REFERENCE SILVER LIGHTNING TO CHORD HUGO MOJO AUDIOQUEST DRAGONFLY INTERCONNECT CABLE BY LAVRICABLES V3. Will this work with iOS 14.0.1 and iPhone SE 2016 (first gen) model? I will be using with CHORD MOJO. And what does this mean V3.0...

Thanks for the feedback. Currently i run balanced using silver dragon cable (Moon audio) to Elear from AK380 copper. I never tried unbalanced, though i do have silver dragon cable for that. I plan to stay balanced, even after the amp add-on. And yes, AK380Cu alone to balanced out to Elear...

Hello, Anyone using following combination, AK380cu (copper) + non-copper AK300 amp? Is this an okay combination to use as? Or, is the non-copper amp defeats whatever whatever edge the AK380cu has? I'm using Focal Elear at the moment. And Utopia perhaps in the near future. I believe these...

        Okay, thanks for that clarifications.   Somehow i was getting my wires crossed about what's actually being saved.   So, it's the (headphone output) volume that get saved from previous (whether previously in lineout mode or not) is what's used when you just turn on the unit...

    Hello, perhaps this topic has been discussed extensively, but just to be sure, if changing Vrms of the line out with the volume balls, that volume level is remembered, UNLIKE default line out mode without changing the Vrms.  In other words, default line out mode of 3V is not remembered.  ...

Hello,   Where did the folks with LC 2.0 ordered the unit from?   Direct from the factory, Cavalli?   Or, from the 3rd party?   I'm thinking of getting this LC 2.0, and seems like ordering from factory directly has ~6 months lead time, as i'm reading some LC 1.0 owner feedback's on the...
