In a general sense, I've read people in places like reddit saying how they prefer glass cables and can hear improvements but you never know with peoples subjective cable experiences, especially after spending a lot on a cable. However I did find a quote from Rob Watts the guy who was lead...

I think optical caps at 24 bit/192khz sample rate, which is enough for me as I see those flacs online, the only files I've seen higher are online super high res streaming files or sacd, dsd and those are mostly genres like jazz I'm not into, I'm fine with usb but I'll give optical a proper go as...

cool, good looking out, my funds aren't that tight, but 1k+ cans I can't be buying and returning them or collecting them, I'm not that much of an audiophile. Nowhere really to audition near me so yeah, I found what I like and it's good enough but I saved your recs.

nothing anyone ever heard of, bluedio victory 1, produced a few year ago in china for bass fanatics/future hearing damaged ;/ I don't have the income to have much headphones for comparisons, I have hd650s, they're cleaner and I tried them again with mojo 2 but I guess i value rumble over...

ok, and I get what you meant by your other message, raise the overall volume to bring up the middle, makes sense, I've played with crossfeed the least, maybe I'll give it another go, it was a bit airy/distant when I tried but I might try a low setting. I'll try the velour just for comfort and...

gotcha, I will try that even though the graph doesn't really reflect it, the music might, I'm also going to try velour pads on a secondary pair of cans I send to the shop, although I've read velour can make more bass which I definitely don't need more of.

yeah I tried a bunch of negative values, but the area of 100 to 1000 on that graph won't raise above flat.

I've been playing with that excel spreadsheet, my music is missing mids/vocals but I can't get it to ^, just v's, anyone know a good setting. If you could adjust the points on the curve and it would change to the value needed, that would be sweet, but would take some programming.

cool, yeah, they're discontinued, nearly impossible to find, they were a chinese creation with 6 huge drivers on each side, kind of a gimmick, they're clunky, but not junk quality or anything, they have their fanbase I see people asking where they can buy them online to this day etc. If I knew...

They're not reputable, bluedio victory 1 or wavsz kt-1 was the copy but it's not as good, ridiculous bass, good for hearing loss which I think I have, but yeah, not audiophile stuff, although I have hd650s but didn't like and have tried other bass headphones etc, my ears only like these.

I must have the dumbest eq settings around, +9dB on every shelf except 20hz bass 😋 Sounds good for modern bass heavy edm and rap, pop, which is 90% of music I listen to, rock and classical not so good.

I bought this, good for laptops with usb c out https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09QFYNB7Y?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details I haven't tried audirvana so I don't know if it supports bit perfect switching on its own but I think it does, the mojo 2 lights change when I change sample rate and dsp...

I tried optical, it did feel a bit cleaner, but missing some of the bass oomph that I got from usb, more clean and clinical, maybe it was because I was using a different laptop and spotify version, but I think I'll eventually end up with a high qual optical setup and not a crap 10 dollar cable.

well you probably don't have to if the pc is off, same thing should happen when pc power goes off, I use on my laptop that I turn off and put away at night, so I unplug data obviously and put the mojo seperate.

np, just unplug the data usb leave mains in, turn off power and mode will go purple and its cold so I don't think it's causing any harm to battery.

Mine is on 24/7, been that way for the last month or so, plug into the computer it gets a bit warm during usage but not hot, same as mojo 1, when I turn computer off, the mode button is just purple and it's not warm at all.

Mojo 1 does have a certain charm, I think I'll keep it rather than fire sale it, but listening and knowing it's close to 4 hours of charge time, no thanks, mojo 2 is worth every penny for that purple light alone.

Didn't know it added a charging port so that's useful information, $pensive though, I kind of wanted to clip it to the side of my macbook so wouldn't really need the keyboard, might get a cheaper mini to clip or something if it's just for apple music to mojo 2, not even sure I'll like it I'm...

came across an old interview about mojo 1 with Rob Watts. I am getting rather different sound from coax and USB inputs with the latter sounding better, what’s the reason for this? It’s complicated and depends upon a number of factors - principally the amount of RF noise injected into the Mojo...

yeah that should work, my mojo power is going to a wall wart anyway right now, not much would change except I'd stick the usb data into a ipad hub. I'll consider it. By the time 2021 ipad pros go down to a more reasonable rate or the new one comes out (towards end of the year) things might have...

yeah I needed an ipad pro in general, ipad air is a good value, I'm not big on batteries most of my devices are always plugged in, guess I can try a hub and if it doesn't work just use the battery, hopefully apple gets bitperfect for mac or spotify hifi comes out this century.

well phones and ipads only have one port, so you can plug your mojo in or charge it, but I want to do both, are you saying you use a wallwart with a usb addition that you plug your mojo into and charge?

Will an ipad be able to always on charged and play mojo at the same time? They only have one port so I'd have to get an adapter with power charge in, usb 3 (type 2 cable) out to the mojo but I dunno this sounds like recipe for disaster given how sensitive mojo is to current/interference. Want...

Don't want to open a can of worms but anyone notice improvements using audiophile cables for the usb signal? Thinking of finishing my chain with audioquest cinnamon but I could be lighting $100 on fire, any 'definitely noticed difference' anecdotes about mojo 1 and 2 appreciated.

cool didn't know any of that, I think I'll give apple music another try with ios.
