I use the USB-C plugs on my wireless headphones. I just hold the cord close, and it snaps on. Easy. No fiddling.- Jerome Howard

I got some of these little plugs. They come with cables that are magnetic and the jump right onto the plug. No more messing with the stupid micro USB.- Jerome Howard

Headphone recommendation between Sennheiser,Focal and HI-FI Man?
I have quite a few headphones but my favorite is the HiFiMan Ananda Stealth magnet version. Using my iPhone 15 Pro Max and Chord Mojo 2, the sound is really really good.- Jerome Howard

Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
Just for fun I maxed out all of the EQ on my Mojo 2 and listened with my Stealth Anandas. Guess what? It sounded great at lower volumes. It reminds me of the LOUDNESS settings on vintage solid state receivers and amps.- Jerome Howard

Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
I collect antiques radios from the 1930's. I can tell you that just about every appliance, phone charger, modem, cable box, TV, Alexa, etc. in my home adds interference. When everything is being used, I can barely hear stations from more than about 40 miles away, and with static. Unplug...- Jerome Howard

FIIO Q15 DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread
I would also disagree with that. Anyway, I'm thread crapping. So I'll leave it there, and let the discussion continue about the Q15- Jerome Howard

FIIO Q15 DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread
I own both. I also own an xFi Gryphon. The Mojo 2 is superior in every way, except bluetooth which it doesn't have. The EQ is superb. Everyones ears are different. The Q15 quite good. But when I go back to it, may ears are expecting what the Mojo 2 delivers, and its just not there.- Jerome Howard

Hifiman Ananda Stealth Magnet Version
I listened to that LCD Soundsystem song. Very nice. An even better one for testing bass is Timestretch by Bassnectar. With these cans it's almost a religious experience. Not extreme bass head bass, but damn it's sweet. My Sony XM5's make a mess out of the bass on that song. So much bass, that...- Jerome Howard

Hifiman Ananda Stealth Magnet Version
I've been listening to my new Stealth Magnet Anandas that came today. I'm using an iPhone 15 Pro Max with Tidal, and Apple Music, connected to a Mojo 2. I really like them. I tweaked the EQ a little with the Mojo 2. Boosted the bass and the mids a little. I took the 3Khz down just slightly. I...- Jerome Howard

Sony WH-1000XM5 Wireless Noise Cancelling
I own XM4's and XM5's. TheXM5's are better. In comparison, the XM4's seem muffled. I can open them up with EQ though. BOoh have tons of bass, but I find it lacking in punch, or explosiveness, compared to some other cans I own.- Jerome Howard

Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
I'll open a can of worms, but I picked up an Audioquest Cinnamon USB-C to USB-C cable. 0.75 meter. No issues at all so far. And here's a bone: The sound is better than with my CableMatters cable. Seems tighter. Everything sounds just a little bit livelier. Not sure how to best describe it. I...- Jerome Howard

Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
I was browsing the topic and found references to the white noise issue. So just for fun, I ran more than a half dozen different USB-C to USB-C cables between my iPhone 15 Pro Max and the Mojo 2. I had two that immediately brought the white noise issue. They are both Belkin cables. One 3 feet...- Jerome Howard

Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
I hooked the Mojo 2 up to my Sony MX5's just a little while ago. The amount of clean bass is off the chain. While I'm not what you would call a bass head, if I was, this combo would really hit the mark. The MX5 also benefits from the crossfeed. But wow. I'm talking SERIOUS bass. Most I've...- Jerome Howard

I got my Mojo 2 this morning and have been listening a lot. Quite impressive with my Grado RS2X. I love the crossfeed and the instruments being brought forward a bit. I did not play with the EQ until about an hour ago. I gave the mid base a boost, the 3kHz a boost, and the 125Hz just a little...- Jerome Howard

The crossfeed feature is really good. At first I didn't notice much change. But after listening for a while, when it's turned off, something is missing. It really does pull the music forward, and for me, liven it up.- Jerome Howard
