    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

    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.

    Amp recommendation's for SR60i?

    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

    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...

    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?

    Woo Audio for RS1i's

    I have the opportunity to buy a Grado RS1i at a great discount price but have absolutly no clue on which amp ss or valve to partner it with. I have heard the RS1i with a Black Cube Linear but my gut feeling was it did not synergies too great, it sounded very good just not exceptional. I've read...

    Is it possible to buy Woo Audio amps in the U.K?

    Thanks for the advice. I'm confused as to what the buying options are regarding the Woo Audio 6 SE? This is the first time i have bought a valve amp, what are the add on's for? Can i just buy the Woo Audio 6 SE and expect suberb performance and be happy with that, what is the Max version for...

    Is it possible to buy Woo Audio amps in the U.K?

    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

    Has anyone listened to the PS1000's with a Lehmann Audio Black Cube Linear?

    Do you get switchable gain with the Matrix M stage? Regards danny

    Has anyone listened to the PS1000's with a Lehmann Audio Black Cube Linear?

    Thanks for that. My source is a Linn Sneaky DS. I have tried the SR60's with the BCL and my Sneaky and it sounded awesome. Regards Danny

    Has anyone listened to the PS1000's with a Lehmann Audio Black Cube Linear?

    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

    How far apart is ear & driver on Grado GS1000i?

    Hi, one of my complaints with the RS1i's were that my right ear touched the driver and the left one did not which was terribly annoying and uncomfortable, could someone tell me if the ear touches the GS1000i driver and how far apart they are? Regards Danny

    SR60i pads for my RS1i's?

    unfortunatly I just cannot get on with the RS1i's mini bowl pads, they just feel uncomfortable and my right ear touches the right driver which is making it worse. I recently swapped the RS1i bowls for the SR60 pads and they feel so much more comfortable but am I hearing the RS1i's the way they...

    Why am I enjoying my sr60's more than my rs1i's?

    There's no doubt that the rs1i's do sound better than the sr60's it's just when you compare the price gap between the two I would say in terms of value nothing can touch the sr60.

    Why am I enjoying my sr60's more than my rs1i's?

    Is there something wrong with my ears! Don't get me wrong the grado rs1i's are great sounding headphones but £700 more than the £100 sr60's? I just can't justify the price. For the record I am using a linn sneaky ds as my source and a Lehmann audio black cube.

    Is there a right or wrong way to wear my RS1i's?

    Should the driver be dead centre to my ear hole? Or will I just get the same sound no matter how I wear them?

    Comfort issues with my RS1i bowl pads. Can I use my SR60 pads?

    I've been listening to the RS1i's with SR60 pads and i have to say that I've had a headache ever since! Way to overpowering.

    Comfort issues with my RS1i bowl pads. Can I use my SR60 pads?

    Yep, tried everything. What really is annoying me is that my right ear touches the right handed driver but the left one doesn't seem to or it could be my imagination, anyhow it just does not feel comfortable, nothing like the comfort with my SR60's anyway. Just trying my SR60 pads now!

    Comfort issues with my RS1i bowl pads. Can I use my SR60 pads?

    That looks amazing. I was under the impression that the pads that come with the RS1i as standard are designed a way as to complement the RS1i sound? I just find them to uncomfy. If using the SR60 pads will the bass stay tight and controlled?
