Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
Thanks! So two entries is normal. And I'm showing Device started even though it shows the migration error above it, so perhaps the migration error isn't really a problem. Weird though, I wonder what it is. Anyway - cheers for checking that out.- daveisthemusic

Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
Guys, can someone with tech know-how maybe help me with this...? I'm using Windows 10. After installing the Mojo, in device manager I now have two listings for the device - you can see them as follows: Now, I'm used to seeing the lower version - but I've never seen an "Audio inputs...- daveisthemusic

Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
Thanks so much, that sounds very promising to me. I'm a composer and listen mostly to modern instrumental music, world music / soundtrack etc, so having those improvements in the mid-high frequency ranges will be a better match for me than the E17's more/fuller bass. Great to hear the...- daveisthemusic

Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
Hi guys, It's finally time to upgrade my first and only set-up :D Any idea if will hear much of a difference going from a Fiio E17+E09k (£200) to this (£400) for hd650? I was initially thinking to upgrade the E09k amp to a Graham Slee and keep E17 as DAC... but the Mojo has really piqued my...- daveisthemusic

O2 + ODAC or E17 + EO9K for my headphones?
Quote: I get you, so it either amplifies the signal for it's own headphone socket or passes the music unamped to the E09k. It would have been cool to do both but I suppose a little weird technically when you think of it like that. Thanks for letting me know.- daveisthemusic

O2 + ODAC or E17 + EO9K for my headphones?
I have a quick question about the E17 & E09k so I'll ask it here before starting a thread... thanks Briefly, using hd25 + E17 together and LOVE it, listen to a lot of FLAC soundtracks with my partner. I'm now looking at some hd650's and getting the E09k to drive them, continuing to use my...- daveisthemusic

Foobar2000 Dolby Headphone config - Comment & discuss!
I'm using the forward setting with foobar + hd25's and it's an awesome improvement, thanks! Seems to give even the 25's a soundstage! I'm really new to all this so excuse the noob question - in your preset download the buffer size is set at it's default 1000ms, I take it I still want to...- daveisthemusic

FiiO E17 "ALPEN" - First Impression + Final Thought
Quote: Thanks dude, guess I got away with it. Just noticed my headphones give the TINIEST bit more presence (I'm talking ~0.5%) with USB charging=on. I'd be surprised if most could notice it though. Kind of makes sense with the E17 feeding power from the laptop around its...- daveisthemusic

FiiO E17 "ALPEN" - First Impression + Final Thought

FiiO E17 "ALPEN" - First Impression + Final Thought
Ok. If at 44.1khz there's no difference at all then that's a relief to hear, because I'm listening to the same piano track right now and swapping between 96 and 192 and honestly, there really is. It must be a problem with my laptop's soundcard, perhaps it's supposed to drive the headphones...- daveisthemusic

FiiO E17 "ALPEN" - First Impression + Final Thought
sounddreamer - when you say combination headphone dac for 650's, what do you mean exactly? could you give me a couple examples? :) I've seen in this thread people saying e17 should be sufficient to drive the 650's as a basic starter (review post states anything BEYOND 300 ohms will be...- daveisthemusic

FiiO E17 "ALPEN" - First Impression + Final Thought
Thanks for the informative replies guys and of course, I don't even have the product to be able to test my enjoyment E17 + 96khz versus the laptop on 192...! so admittedly, I think perhaps I let my initial disappointment at the discovery get the better of me. :) I really don't mean to...- daveisthemusic

FiiO E17 "ALPEN" - First Impression + Final Thought
Hi guys, this is my first post here. I noticed the part about sampling rate mentioned in the review and I'm just gutted that my laptop doesn't have SPDIF to use with the E17 for 192khz support. I know there will always be a debate about 96 vs (the unnecessary for many) 192 sampling rates but as...- daveisthemusic
