They are very different headphones. Not much overlap.

Enjoy! What cable is that btw? Chunkiest headphone cable I have ever seen!

Mojo 2 does a good job and is definitely my go to when not at the desktop. Have heard good things about the Woo Audio tube mini as well. Mojo 2 is incredibly versatile.

If anybody is looking for a reasonably priced amp pairing, the MR is currently singing on my ears being driven surprisingly well by the HifiMan EF400. I'd written off this dac/amp as it hasn't done much for some of my other headphones but this seems to be a really good combo.

Been lurking here for a little to read up on pads etc. Thought I'd post my brief impressions of the MR. I've owned a lot of headphones over the last 25 odd years. HD600, HD800s, HE60, AKG K1000, Stax L700, 007mk2, 009s, vintage Stax gear, bunch of Hifiman stuff, Audeze etc. I gotta say I love...

Another review: https://the-ear.net/review-hardware/dali-io-12-on-the-move-and-in-the-home/

If the E3s are easier to drive that the Stealth/Expanse then the Mojo 2 might just get the job done. I tried the Expanse with Mojo and it wasn’t far off. The Mojo pairs very well with the Noire, but that is pretty easy to drive.

It’s certainly a stark contrast to the approach of Dan Clark Audio with the new E3. The minute they were announced there were reviews from multiple high profile youtube reviewers.

Agreed. Singapore retailer told me sometime in November, but you’d think there be some more buzz by now. Personally I think the io-6 is a great headphone - not too far off the ML5909. If they can improve on the sound of the io-6 AND provide good ANC this could be a winner.

Speaking of OTG cables... this is how I am currently using my Mojo2 out of an iPhone. Sounds great. But would it actually SOUND better with the Poly over WiFi?

Anybody ever heard the Rosson direct out of a Mojo 2? Looking for a solution for listening out on the back deck or elsewhere in the house/office away from my main rig.

Curious to try these. I tried every ANC headphone I could find in Singapore recently (just before the Kef release) and I hate to say it but I bought the AirPod Max. Sound really is just pretty good but the ANC and convenience factor is next level if you’re an apple user. Sound-wise the ML 5909...

Have been reading this thread with interest as I am currently travelling in Singapore trying every ANC headphone I can find. For my tastes the 5909 takes the crown for sound quality. Other aspects have been more difficult to judge. Just curious… has anybody here heard the Dali IO6? Very similar...

I just wanna say I've had my Jomo Salsa's for a 18 months now and I couldn't be happier with them. Bought them at CanJam Singapore and talked through everything with Joseph. He was great to deal with. The whole outfit were super professional.

Just got a pair of Jomo Audio Salsa's. I've had loads of different headphones over the years but these are my first CIEMs. I listened to about 50 different IEMs at Singapore CanJam and for me these were a good match (I listen mainly to classical and jazz). Really natural sound, superb...

I compared the two directly a few months ago. To my ears the HD800S sound better, and they're substantially cheaper as well of course. I'd only get the HD820's if you really need closed back. And if you really need closed back there are other interesting options from MrSpeakers and others at a...

Cayin iHA-6 Matrix-m-stage-hpa-3b Violectric V280/281 Schiit Mjolnir 2 - I assume the Schiit is fully balanced? I'm enjoying the Cayin right now with the HD800S.

Some great rigs on this thread, but this setup does me nicely. Colorfly C4 + HE500.  Very portable, and the Colorfly drives them well.  

At this price point it is hard to go past the Ety ER4ps as suggested above. Very good for classical, easy to drive, excellent sound isolation and you can take them area. Sonically they are as good as any full-size phone at this price point.

For what it's worth, I've had the C4 for over a year now and am still loving it. Does everything I want, battery life is still excellent. Won't be looking for a replacement for a LONG time.

For what it's worth I had the chance to compare my C4 with an 801 at Jaben Audio in Hong Kong a couple of weeks ago. The winner quite clearly for me was the C4 and that seemed to be the opinion of the staff there also. Sound of the C4 was more natural somehow and the interface is better, not to...

There is a big difference. I heard the HE500s a couple of days ago for the first time and liked them a lot. More open sounding, very natural, no 'veil'. I've owned HD600 and Stax gear for along time. To me HE500s blend the best of both worlds.

You should get in touch with Etymotic, even if it is out of warranty. They may fix it anyway. They have great customer service.
