    Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

    Oh, I see. This will prove my unit is eligible for warranty, and not one of those those black-listed units from Massdrop, correct? With this registration, I can be sure that I can deal with Chord directly should there are issues with the unit, without the need to send my unit to the retail...

    Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

    Thank you, that's very helpful. At least now I know that I won't be left in the cold if the Mojo broke. However, It would be nice if I also get a rough idea of the costs. Is there anyone here who lives in the eastern region and have had to reach out to Chord personally to fix the Mojo? Would...

    Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

    Hmmm... I see. Maybe the device is just so popular that there are bound to be more complaints about faulty units compared to other similar devices. It probably works great for most people who just never voice their opinion because there is nothing to complain about, I reckon. I'm worried...

    Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

    Are you using Mojo in an A/C room by any chance? I don't have an A/C and I live in a tropical country, so the Mojo could be dying faster due to the heat since it already can get very hot by itself.

    Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

    Has the battery improved in the later batches of Mojo? I saw lots of people on the forums with dead Mojos in a little over a year, so I'm a bit worried about its lifespan. Is there anyone here who actually manages to keep the Mojo alive for at least more than 2 Years? I'm interested in...

    FitEar F111 — Impressions, Reviews & Discussion (previously TO GO! 111)

    Hmmm. I see. Thank you for your response.     I actually got a chance to audition the Heaven VII, but only briefly, and never get to actually compare them with the F111.   I do remember liking mainstream pop/rock with both of these earphones, though.   They are the only two IEMs that I...

    FitEar F111 — Impressions, Reviews & Discussion (previously TO GO! 111)

    Ah, I see.    What about details/clarity? Which one is do you think is better, the FAD Heaven VII or F111?   I would imagine that the FAD is at least on par with F111 in this department, but will surpass the F111 with Spinfits.   Do you think that is the case?

    FitEar F111 — Impressions, Reviews & Discussion (previously TO GO! 111)

    Thanks!   I'll try that when I managed to fetch a pair of the F111, again.   I will be in Japan for a week. I hope they still have some in Fujiya.     If not, I may go with Final Audio Heaven VII with spinfit eartips instead.   From the reviews, this one seems like the closest thing to...

    FitEar F111 — Impressions, Reviews & Discussion (previously TO GO! 111)

    OK, then. Thanks for the heads up!    I have these once and I agree that they do sound amazing.. BUT only with perfect fit/tips which I personally find very hard to achieve.   I managed to get the fit right once and I kept them for a while because of that. I just knew that these have the...

    FitEar F111 — Impressions, Reviews & Discussion (previously TO GO! 111)

    Anyone tried these with Spinfit eartips?   I have a feeling that people's experience with these tips should be more consistence compared to other tips (tips flexibility and all).

    Final Audio Heaven VII VS ER4P/S, which one has better detail retrieval?

    I've been doing research on these two earphones because I want to add at least one "benchmark" (flat?) iem with good detail retrieval to my arsenal without breaking the bank.   I've finally narrow my choice down to these two.   Can anyone who has auditioned these two iems give me some...

    Reply to review by 'calist3r' on item 'Pioneer HRM-7 Professional Studio Headphones'

    So...a full-sized Etymotic ER4S/4P with large 3d sound stage? At 199$?   This could be my dream headphones at ANY price!   I'm abou to go to Japan in a few days, may as well grab these while I'm at it.    Great review!

    iPod Touch 5th gen, now on par with sansa clip+?

    So, the iTouch 5th gen sounds just as good as Classic *AND* an amp (E1)?   If that's the case, I'll probably buy one soon.

    iPod Touch 5th gen, now on par with sansa clip+?

    Thanks, Dreamnine. Any audible differences between the touch 5g and 160gb classic?   If there is, which one sounds more neutral to your ears?

    iPod Touch 5th gen, now on par with sansa clip+?

    That's good to hear. Now I know the iTouch line has reliable SQ.   What about the 5th gen iTouch? Have you tried it?

    iPod Touch 5th gen, now on par with sansa clip+?

    I have been using an iPod classic 160gb for about a year, and figured that it is not suited for BA IEMs since its H/P out has 5 ohm output. That's why I consider buying a Clip+ as it is said to be better with BA IEMs because of its near linear H/P out(1ohm, if I'm not mistaken).   But now...

    Quote:   Thanks, but that probably won't be necessary now  that my local store will have AN F111 (Yes, only ONE unit) in stock and another one for demo in a few days.   No impressions, though. I'm no good at describing sound signature and I don't want to give anyone wrong ideas...

    FitEar F111 — Impressions, Reviews & Discussion (previously TO GO! 111)

    Any comparisons to the UM3X?   I want and in-ear that strikes a good balance between neutral and fun signatures, and I'm considering a pair of F111 as the new replacement for my UM3X.   Could anyone kindly make a comparison between the two?   Thanks in advance.

    Review: NwAvGuy's O2 DIY Amplifier

    I plan to add an O2 in my audio chain for my LCD-2 and feed it with the Xonar, will I hear any difference?   From what I have read, the Xonar STX can provide sufficient power to most of the headphones out there but it's not completely flat as it still has a tint of warmness. Some reviews...

    The Xonar Essence STX Q/A, tweaking, impressions thread

    Do you guys know why the default mixer setting is at 76/76?   Should I just crank it all the way up to 100% and use only the main volume knob?

    Beyerdynamics T1 vs LCD-2, which one is a better all-rounders?

    Quote: That's a very encouraging assessment. The T1 could be the next, and probably the last headphones for me(for a very long time, at least). Now, I'd really love to see how they fare with my LCD-2 Rev.2, especially in terms of female vocals.   Also, I know that the LCD-2 is a low...
