... And Xiaomi phones, apparently.

Just a qualifier to this - it doesn't work well with cellphone, which does not provide enough power to the DDC. For that you would need the U2 Pro, which has its own power supply. The U2 is good though for PC and laptop, and some tablets.

Trigger status: pulled. Thank you all for your comments, am looking forward to receiving them next week.

Thanks yes it's not to reduce noise on phone but to provide a stable connection via optical from Douk to Mojo 2. With USB from phone I get white noise attacks but not via optical or coax. Yep UAPP for Android wired output is a must. For BT from phone I use Mark Levinson 5909 which are OK...

Thanks Sajunky for replying and for the suggestions. My main reason for getting U2 over the Pro is that I wanted to be able to use on the go, connecting my android phone to my Mojo 2. My fault for not researching fully before buying. I will probably return it for now, and maybe buy U2 Pro...

I've come this close to pulling the trigger on some grey market IER-Z1R imports, having enjoyed reading this thread over the past few weeks. But have just got to the end and reached the discontinuation news sad ending... does anyone have any hunches on the likelihood of a successor in the next...

Thanks Rayon, I have been playing around with laptop > Douk U2 > Mojo 2 via optical and I do know what you mean about the soundstage. It's also crystal clear, almost jarringly so. Unfortunately, I didn't research the U2 well enough before buying and hadn't realised that a phone would not give...

Thank you both again for your comments. I have been testing out glass optical (first to arrive in post) and so far, so good. Will compare with plastic one when it arrives.

I picked up a U2 (not Pro) last week, and am trying to settle in with it connected to Mojo 2 via optical, but there are two things I'm struggling with. 1) Android phone. I've seen two posts in this thread where people seem to have it working (maybe Pro though?), but it's a dud for me with...

Could you explain exactly how you glued the cheap pleather headband back together after it peeled away? Mine has just come unstuck after 3 months of use, though thankfully I had read this thread and so was prepared for it, especially as I live in a country with 90% humidity at 33c heat. I just...

Thank you both for replying. Will get a basic one from a local store and ship in a nicer glass one so that I can test for myself.

Thanks Hakuna, am trying this and have the Douk U2 arriving this week. What optical cable are you using there? I read Rob Watts saying that he used a cheap Kabel Direkt one for testing, but I can't seem to find a good deal with them where I live.

Have had my new 5909s for a few weeks now and am enjoying them very much, and especially enjoying playing around with passive mode + Mojo 2. For my 5909 + Mojo 2 bros, I'm interested to know what EQ settings you use with these headphones? I find the bass a little light when listening to hip-hop...

Thanks to all who replied about battery life. Today I charged it fully to magenta, and it's still blue 2 hours in, so - as promised - I retract my earlier implication of dubious longevity. Will do a full test at some point from magenta to lights out, but for now it's looking good.

I just received my Mojo 2 and love it's sound and functionality. However I too am struggling to understand the battery indicators. Today (3rd use) I charged the battery to blue, and then used it undocked for 2.5 hours. In that time it dropped to yellow, indicating that it has dipped beneath 40%...
