What level of current are we looking at to drive a fairly efficient planar like the HEKSE? Chord state 600 mW 30 ohms (4.2 V RMS) so am... -

Yes and no. There are power hungry planars (like the HE6) and easy to drive planars (like the Meze Empyrean). Planars tend to present a...

By "plenty of headroom" do you mean just raw SPL/gain, or are you talking about until audible distortion, roll off, etc. begins? Because...

If a headphone needs .25 w at 90db then it would need 2w power to be able to handle 9db peaks when averaging 90db. There are also...

Ok, let’s use some real examples. I’m driving E3 from Mojo2 on double orange (about 0.12V) which I measure as about 78-80dB on modern...

I found this also. Seems like the Mojo 2 is easily capable of driving the HEKSE 'properly' which is great news: -...

Ddeadforweeks replied to the thread Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread].Thanks! Definitely not looking to drive them at 100dB+. Also, per my understanding (of both Mojo 2 and E3 specs), Mojo 2 should drive E3...

I use the mojo 2 as a dac / pre-amp for a little dot mk4, works beautifully with my hd800s & hd600.

Yeah, you’d still have the quality Mojo 2 source, but with around four times the output power with the JDS. Should be a fantastic system...

Ddeadforweeks replied to the thread Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread].Hello! Would it be a good idea to pair Mojo 2 with JDS Labs El Amp II+ for more power-hungry (planar magnetic) headphones? :thinking: I...
