Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
I am sure for the absolute purist, a power supplied desktop kind of DAC/AMP would be slightly be better but so far I had MOJO so decided to use it :-) It may be enough, so give it a try!! It is convenient and works for other devices: iPhone, PC, Mac ... lets get back our feet down to earth and...- Domdom

Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
I have always read slow charging is better for the long run but remember, i believe it is the equipment absorbing power not power supply pushing. As an example: iPhone 6 (or 6S) can charge faster if given power through 10W iPad charger. so i you can tolerate slower through 5portz ANKER go for...- Domdom

Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
It seems to be the 5 ports from Amazon.FR in Jan 2015, but no longer available, 6 ports is. True I use a short USB cable but a standard length should do. Surprised this generates so much debate :-) Slow charge is better even if a bit of a pain waiting, Just dont wait for Mojo to be empty? just a...- Domdom

I use Anker to charge Mojo, so far no issue. Anker not very fast but fine.- Domdom

A bit surprised no-one mentioned Foobar 2000 for iOS. Made some progress lately, free, and fully compatible with MOJO, give it a try and report back :-)- Domdom

One thing I want to share: I thought nothing happened and the sound volume didnt really changed but then I realized the second slider "Music, video, ..." was not (no longer?!) fully to the right, and I am pretty sure it was, so I pushed it all the way to the right. Now master slider (first...- Domdom

An interesting and fair review of ZX2 has been published on WhatHiFiSoundAndVision UK Sep 2015 I am not sure if its ok to share just the 2 pages of this article. If someone confirms it, I will share this with you guys.- Domdom

I found out today MP3 tracks (at least the album I was listnening) were not gapless, where FLAC seems to be ok. Can anyone confirm? so I stop worrying now :-) although I wish MP3 would be gapless too.- Domdom

SONY NW-ZX2
I just went from DX90 to ZX2! As far as sound is going, well, ZX2 is more subtle, clearer and more neutral, DX90 is great for the price, first question is, do you need to spend 3 times more? If money is no object well then yes. With ZX2, one thing for sure is build quality is trully 1st...- Domdom

I would like to share how to fix this, until Sony manages external covers in the music folder. I will make it short, feel free to ask any further details. Here goes 1. Ensure you have a "cover.jpg" in the same folder (each album is in a folder on my system) -> Cover Art Downloader makes...- Domdom

Guys, I just found out that only embedded cover art will be displayed, not external files such as folder.jpg or cover.jpg Who do we talk to to improve this in the next firmware revision? Will Sony hear us? or this is hopeless?- Domdom

Guys, 2 quick questions: - Currently own an iBasso DX90 (very happy for the price), is the price gap with ZX2 worth it in terms of audio quality? (with Earsonics S-EM6, http://www.earsonics.com/en/audiophiles-earphones/s-em6/) - To access my tracks I usually go Genre > Artist > Albums: is...- Domdom

from the userguide: "When using line out, one should always turn the volume up to the maximum "255" to ensure ..." Why line out doesnt deliver 255 automatically?!!! Is there a good reason? otherwise it would be worth contacting iBasso, wouldnt it?- Domdom

I cant believe in this config a different battery (bigger) would improve the sound ... not be offensive but this sounds a bit like BS, maybe it isnt ... Anyhow, stock battery can hold 5 to 6 hours like my spare Samsung but the big difference is that the Samsung will retain its load when the...- Domdom

Talking about batteries (will report on sound and stuff later on), since my DX90 must be delivering around 6 hours, this is not much, I have been trying some "genuine" S3 battery (from eBay, not the ceapest ones) and it is pretty hard to make sure you are not getting a fake (or am I?). I am...- Domdom

I confirm, although not tested fully, stock battery seems fairly weak and I doubt it hold as much as promised ie more than 7 hours, seems more in the range of 3 to 4? Could some nice folks share their source for purchasing a compatible battery, e.g. the S3 one? Thanks- Domdom

COWON Z2 - The complete Review (from Izzi going)
Sure all of this works but the worse is Android related, if you dont pay attention, apps keeps relaunching in the background and sucks out your battery! Really bad, of course Wifi and BTooth is off, but even then ... If I turn on Wifi, even more apps turn up ... If anyone knows how to stop it...- Domdom
