    The New AEON 2: It's The End Of MrSpeakers

    Thank you. I've had the Hugo for 2 years or so, but I've not heard any difference in volume when charging (at 2 Amps). This as you suggest may be partly down to "Age of User" not so much "Age of Unit", given I'm approaching my mid-50s. That said, the difference in power needed for the A2O...

    The New AEON 2: It's The End Of MrSpeakers

    I have a question for anyone with a Hugo 2 and the Aeon Open 2 - would be v grateful for any comments. I'm finding myself taking the volume knob much higher on the Hugo 2 when using the A2O, compared with any other headphone or IEM (e.g. CA Cascade, Fiio FH7). For my other 'phones, I'm in the...

    Chord 2Go & 2Yu Wired/Wireless Network streamer and S/PDIF adaptor - Official thread

    Thanks - yes, got there in the end after a couple of further factory resets. Once Gofigure saw the 2go, it then couldn't see my wifi (or any other wifi network). That was resolved by clearing all network data (one of the options from pressing the config button).

    Chord 2Go & 2Yu Wired/Wireless Network streamer and S/PDIF adaptor - Official thread

    Hmm... Updated firmware to 1.0.3. Now I can't connect to the 2go with Gofigure (on my iPhone). All was fine before the upgrade. Connects fine to my Poly. Have deleted Gofigure and reinstalled. Have carried out a reset to my 2go using the config button. Nothing. Eventually managed to...

    The Official Echobox Explorer Thread

      Sam and team   Am looking forward very much to the release.   Would point out that your website order page still states co-ax output, not optical as you state above.      Could you please confirm which it is?   Thanks

    Pioneer XDP-300R | Twin DAC ES9018K2M | Balanced Out | Android | MQA | 2x MicroSD | WiFi | AptX

    I'm v interested in this unit. But does anyone know how the 300R handles Android's native upsampling "feature", which in practise (on Android phones) just dilutes the sound qualityunless you use an app like UAPP, that is designed to sidestep this?   And if the 300R does address this by...

    Looking for DAP with optical out and ability to run TIDAL

    Hi As a Mojo user, a source that combined TIDAL access (so, probably Android UI plus WiFi) plus optical out (which to me has an energy I can't replicate from the USB digital out) would be perfect. But can't seem to find a DAP that has that magic combination. Have I missed a contender...

    Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

    Thank  Ah - thank you!   Yes, that did it.  Although Tidal seems to be streaming only (can't access the offline downloads on my phone).  Will keep on trying but if someone's cracked that one too, please do share?   Jerome

    Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

    Hmm.   Just upgraded my Nexus 5 to the Sony Xperia Z5 mobile phone.  Tidal worked perfectly on the Nexus (OTG cable to the Mojo), but no joy at all with the Z5.   I've loaded UAPP on to the Sony, but get a "Error on initialising USB" when I start up UAPP.  Have also loaded the Onkyo HF...

    The Altmann Tera Player - Thread

      There were some comments in the Ref1 thread, to the effect that the Tera couldn't drive the Ref1 Too with Uber Too.   Comments on burn-in noted.   Sadly, now moot as a large crack has appeared in one of the earpiece stems and it will need to go back to Gavin for some remedial work.

    The Altmann Tera Player - Thread

    Looking for guidance - grateful for any thoughts.   I'm a longtime owner of a Tera, and have been through a series of upgrades to earphones worthy of bridging the space between the Tera and my ears.   For the last year or so, I've been (happily) using DITA (Truth Edition) but recently took the...

    The Altmann Tera Player - Thread

    Hi - I'm an early adopter of the Tera player and it's very much been my end-game player for the last two years or so.   I have been on an upgrade path on UIEMs though, and am enjoying the Tera / Dita (Truth edition) combination.  But, as ever, restless eyes and ears etc and I've been looking...

    HD600s spotted on London Underground

    I do the twice daily commute in/out of Central London, and whereas I haven't yet seen full size Sennheisers, I have spotted a couple of people sporting Etymotic ER4 cases recently (didn't quite get close enough to decide if P or S :-)). As a Sensaphonic owner, its a little galling that noone...

    Sensaphonics - how do you wear yours?

    Mine arrived two days ago, and I'm having a minor "issue" how best to wear them. Initially, I tried it "a la" the Shure e5c's - that, is drape the two wires down the back of my neck, with the single lead then coming back over my shoulder. But the wires kept "popping" up from behind my ears -...

    Sensaphonic T2XS first impressions

    I'm also a new T2XS owner in the UK - on day 2 of ownership though, and still aclimatising. Could I ask what the "package" was, i.e. case, and other extras? I bought mine via a London dealer, an audiologist in Central London, and the package was as follows:- IEMs Tube of Otoease...
