NEW Chord Electronics Poly & Hugo 2 preorders available now!
Need more information on the Bluetooth part. Is it only for control or stream music as well. But Bluetooth doesn't have enough bandwidth for high bitrate file even with AptX. Will the Poly be a DLNA Renderer? And the Hugo2 still don't have balanced output.....why!?!- mbze430

PSB M4U 2
I also got the Hybrid/Angled Brainwavs pad. They are a little bigger than the stock (fitting wise), but fits just fine. The comfort is at least two folds better. However, I noticed that the high-mids are now almost +5db higher. The Brainwavz cloth part over the drivers is very thin...- mbze430

Looking for replacement for Kingston HyperX Cloud for gaming purposes
Ok, maybe the Focal Elear is an overkill of gaming only purpose. I do have the money for it, I might as well just get the Utopia to one up my LCD3. What about the v-moda Crossfade M-100? I know it's a basshead can, which leads to me to think how awesome it would be for gaming. How are the...- mbze430

PSB M4U 2
The two really has no comparison. I mainly use the PSB for my travels for obvious reasons w/Chord Mojo. The M4U2 don't sound as "exciting" as the LCD3. the LCD3 mid-range is just beautiful, the bass on the LCD is much fuller and the highs are clean. The soundstage obviously is much wider for...- mbze430

Looking for replacement for Kingston HyperX Cloud for gaming purposes
I have the original HyperX Cloud for about 2 years now. It is starting to fall apart (the bands are super loose). I am looking for an "upgrade" to those. Suggestions? Budget is up to $500.- mbze430

PSB M4U 2
This might be a long shot, but anyone know if the Brainwavz Angled earpads will fit on the the PSB M4U2s? I have a pair of Audeze LCD-3 and I just love the way the angled pads feels and works. I want to get the same treatment for my PSBs when I travel.- mbze430

Review on HtC 10 and Sound quality (AQstic Dedicated Integrated DAC)
There is one thing I like to mention about the HTC's boomsound profile feature. When I profiled my Audeze LCD-3 using the boomsound feature. the Original and Final frequency curve is exactly the same. I have profiled other IEMS and headphones, but the frequency response graph is always...- mbze430

Review on HtC 10 and Sound quality (AQstic Dedicated Integrated DAC)
I also have a Mojo and 10. I CAN hear a difference with my IEMs and headphones. the soundstage has much more depth specially with 24/96+ recordings. The Mojo and HTC 10 does have a familiar "warmth" to it. 4khz+ the Mojo also has a better separation. I personally love my PSB...- mbze430

Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.
It's not really a "dongle" in a sense like we are used to seeing (a device attached to a port). It is actually called "Corsair Link USB Dongle" in the Device Manager. I have the same cable. It's a Mini-USB to a USB2.0 header cable. The only reason why I think I am having issue with this...- mbze430

I need help with the Strix X99 Gaming MB. i have a Chord Mojo DAC that keeps dropping. I tried this same DAC with 3 other computers and it plays fine. I am thinking it might be the motherboard's USB.
