    Is Mojo a real upgrade over my current stack?

    Hi there, I got into the audiophile listening experience about a year ago. I have purchased together quite an exotic combination of mostly portable devices. I first bought the Oppo PM-3 with the IBasso Bushmaster D14 and then recently supplemented this with a RSA Emmeline P-51 Mustang which I...

    Looking for more analytical headphones relative to Oppo PM-3

    Hi, Going back to my original question of a decent analytical replacement (open-back) for my Oppo PM3, I think I will wait a couple of weeks to read about what the Hifiman Sundara will sound like at 500 bucks. But I must say that I recently also stumbled upon the Hifiman X V2. This seems...

    Looking for more analytical headphones relative to Oppo PM-3

    Hi there, I am currently using the following portable set up to listen to various genres of music. I use the Fiio X3-3 as a cheap digital source, the iBasso "Bushmaster" D14 as my DAC+AMP(that Sabre sound!) and an Oppo PM3 as my headphones. The combination works like a charm, especially for...

    FiiO X3MKIII || Dual TI PCM5242 || Dual-mode Bluetooth 4.1 || Dual headphone outputs || Balanced Out || 192kHz/32bit

    ... okay, so replying to my own post I must correct my earlier comment somewhat. The small glitch when skipping to the next song can still appear, but it is much less frequent(and I think it only occurs when I have gapless mode switched ON). The other thing which marginally annoys me about the...

    FiiO X3MKIII || Dual TI PCM5242 || Dual-mode Bluetooth 4.1 || Dual headphone outputs || Balanced Out || 192kHz/32bit

    I am very pleased with the firmware update. The skipping and glitches are gone and I find the device generally much snappier to operate! Nice work!

    FiiO X3MKIII || Dual TI PCM5242 || Dual-mode Bluetooth 4.1 || Dual headphone outputs || Balanced Out || 192kHz/32bit

    Hi there, Don't forget that I am using the X3-III as a source which is routed into the SPDIF input of my IBasso D14. Perhaps the problems I have been experiencing only show up when operating the device in that particular mode... also I just check... I am running FW 1.0.3 !!! I am not aware of...

    Hi there, I bought the Fiio X3 Mk3 about 1 week ago from a Chinese online retailer as I currently have a work assignment in China. There was only one reason for me to consider buying this. I wanted to have a comparatively inexpensive digital source for my IBasso "Bushmaster" D14 with a small...
