    No need to apologise! I guess I should brush up on my English to read sarcasm better ;)

    Astell & Kern Junior (AK Jr.) Impressions Thread

    Honestly, I wouldnt hold my breath. Firmware v1.03 has been out for 1.5years now. The Jr itself and v1.02 came out 2 months prior. I think you get the idea. Some people got lucky, some people didnt. Some discovered that they simply needed to use a different cable or USB port. Mine works...

    Nope. If you want to use the Mojo with your PS4, you can use the optical output at the back of the console. Edit - Ah page didnt load the previous responses. Never mind!

    I wouldn't worry. They're only keen on showing their latest products (QC3.0). But in saying that, looked at their site and bought one that did appear. Just to be safe.

    If only it were that simple! Its more of a power related issue, not an audio problem.

    I too thought that EMI might be the problem so I moved both the charger and the Mojo from other electronics and used a cable with ferrite cores attached on both ends. Still noisy. Been looking at the Schiit Wyrd but I have my doubts, whether it will work or not. Tyvm for your post.  ...

    I see. In that case, if anyone could post a possible solution that would be great! Mojo is brilliant, and so I hope to reduce the trickle charge noise as much as possible.

      Quote: I was given the impression that using the combo mentioned above would yield an insignificant amount of noise. I guess the Mojo draws current from its battery until its full, then switches to direct current from the power outlet, which would explain why its silent while the...

    Bought an Anker charger (this) and used the included cable to check for noise. Roughly 50% quieter than using an HTC charger, but still noisy. Same result using another cable I bought for about $8 US. Anyone else have this experience? Not sure if I just wasted money I could have used for...

    Quite an exaggeration. Of course the signal would be cleaner, but mobile phones have improved a lot over the years, especially due to the push for Hi-res audio to become mainstream. The iPhone is very popular with audiophiles here in Japan!

    IMO, you would likely notice a difference in sound signature, but not in quality. Your music files may be a limiting factor. IME, the 1A isnt the most resolving either. It sounds good, but not brilliant (via Jr). I haven't heard the AKG so I cant comment on that. Any particular reason for...

    I guess you're not impressed? What resolution files do you listen to? What earphones/headphones do you have?
