    iFi audio - Audiophile OTG Cable

    My problem with OTG Type C/Micro cables is not at the DAC/Amp connection, but at the DAP/Smartphone connection. Its so easy to tap it just wrong at the phone's connection and freak the phone out so that you have to restart the phone or wait for it to reset whatever protection circuitry it has...

    Zeos Sound Demo comparisons (MDR-Z1R, LCD-4, Elear, EL-8C, M1060, L700, L300, M40x)

    I love the silence from the haters after Z's post. No response? Z wonderfully exposed your pathetic head-fi egos. IMO, the most important point Z makes is that its just a hobby and people on here are discussing it as if its religion. What I really don't understand, after, at one point, owning...

    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

    Did you try it with other devices yet? Sometimes its the dap that has the usb fussiness. For example, when I had the Pioneer XDP-100R, I would have to click "ok" to switch to usb mode every time I plugged the dac/amp in. Additionally, it would only play files on the device through the usb but...

    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

    It's probably a repair. I had this happen to my ifi idsd bl, as well. Sent it in to ifi, they fixed it and sent it back in about 10 days. Since the repair, the usb connection is much more solid and consistent. USB devices are not really designed for use with a portable amp that well yet. I've...

    Schiit Audio Loki Mini Four-Band Equalizer - Head-Fi TV

    So glad this point has been made on headfi. I've debated the use of EQs with purists for years. It's nice to not have to spend $5,000 on a Manley Massive Passive just to get clean eq adjustments. Nicely done, Schiit.

    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

    lol, such is life, my friend, such is life. Especially in the audiophile world. I have an Asgard 2/modi 2, ifi idsd black label and a Mojo. Mojo is supposed to have this magical musical qualify that eclipses space and time! It does have a smoothness, but I find the black label more articulate...

    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

    Question 1: Does Moon have a Blue Dragon Micro USB to MIcro USB cable to connect Android to Mojo? I dont see it in their OTG cable section on their website, but I hear they have one. Anyone have a link? Question 2: Might be more of an Android question, but occasionally when using either Type C...

    LG V20 Sound Quality

      Sorry, I was just kidding. I simple like the sound of the made-up term "Double DACing" which isn't a real thing. Or, maybe it is? I'm sure there are plenty of folks on this forum who would love to get stupid technical about it. In fact, I might argue that you can do a Triple Decker DAC...

      You know, I really can't see why not?

      That sucks, because I think double DACing just sounds like a wicked awesome thing to do ;) But, there you go, certainly the Mojo DAC would out perform the V20's DAC, yes?. I'll, of course, play with it both ways when I get the adapter. On a tangent note, I love my V20. I have the S7 edge...

    LG V20 Sound Quality

    The purpose of the question was not how to bypass the mojo dac, but how to use type c from the v20 to the mojo for the purpose of driving low efficiency/high impedance cans. Since the Mojo happens to the be the amp I already have, the V20 is the phone that I have and the V20 is not powerful...

    Ok, then just go type c to full size usb and then convert it to micro usb? I have a lovely adapter that connects the lightning adapter out of my iphone to micro usb, would love to have a type c to micro usb

    Yeah, doing that now, of course, just wondering if such an adapter exists. Is it silly to DAC the V20 DAC with my mojo?

    Please forgive, I'm sure this noob question is somewhere on this thread, but is there an adapter (type c to micro usb) to connect my V20 to my portable amp? Anyone have a link? Is it even recommended? or should I just go mini to mini? Thanks
