    CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE

    I wondered that after reading the mods, and if Chord Electronics might think about implementing something in DAVEs going forward. Just saying as I have no experience of the mods, or the DAVE even. (Have a TT2.)

    CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE

    That's a fascinating read. Also the post from Triode User who mentions a Steve Jacobs cap mod. Someone did a capacitor mod to the Qutest a long time ago. I rememeber saying maybe they had just invented the Qutest TT. .... They were looking for a power-supply upgrade more akin to changing the...

    CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE

    Do you mean having the power supply caps made larger, so it operates a bit like a TT2.

    Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]

    Hi, sorry I forgot to reply, and thank you. My M2 is running 7 hours and maybe 25 mins. Have not used it much, so only going from one approx timing. However I disovered how to make it run for eight and a half hours on battery. Once charged remove the power cable. Let it sit for a while, like...

    Eversolo DMP-A6 Network Streamer/DAC

    Hi, I am interested in the Eversolo, as it's a unique product. A digital music player with a screen, that has digital output, and at a reasonable price. I'd be using it as a file source connected to a DAC. Please can someone advise me on the following: Does anyone know for sure if the digital...

    Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]

    Please what battery life are folk finding with their Mojo 2? In the past I found Chord's quoted battery life as accurate, with Mojo and Hugo2. Mojo was eight hours fifteen minutes when new. Hugo 2 was eight hours ten minutes. Mojo 2 quoted as up to eight hours by Chord - is this just as...

    Why would desktop mode not protect the battery? I thought that was what it was for.

    Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]

    I suppose I should have thought of that. I meant with the EQ set to off, on the Mojo 2. Where does the Mojo 2 sit in terms of sound quality between the Mojo and the Hugo 2. Sound quality being the point of the question. (With no upscaling on any DAC.) I also made a typo in my question, so...

    Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]

    Question to folk that own the Mojo, Mojo 2, and Hugo 2, please. Where would you place the Mojo 2 between the Mojo and the Hugo 2.. in terms of sound quality alone. EDIT: No upscaling, no EQ. Just pure sound quality.

    Reply to review by 'GreenBow' on item 'Shure KSE1200'

    Yes it's surprising how low the KSE1200 go in bass. Also suprising how they sound. I was watching a movie with them. I think it was London Has Fallen. There was a scene early on where it cuts to the White House. The bass at the opening of that scene - I felt it in my feet. Treble is prefect...

    Astell & Kern SR25: The next A&norma player

    Hi there. I disappeared for a while. Thanks for writing back. Still not quite sure what you mean. I looked up in the SR25 to see if there was something about you said in the last sentence. Quote: "Workaround - put "Angelo Badalamenti" or ("Hans Zimmer" for Gladiator OST) in Artist tag for all...

    Astell & Kern SR25: The next A&norma player

    I do not understand what you are saying. This method you suggest worked fine on my Sony ZX300 Walkman, when I was stuck years ago. I even entered a post suggesting to someone else to try that for the SR25, in this thread. However I can't even see 'album - artist' settings on the SR25. I have...

    Astell & Kern SR25: The next A&norma player

    Is the SR12 going to get any more updates to it's software, please? I have been hoping that it can have albums with differing artisist without breaking the album into many albums. At the moment an album that has many artists just gets split into a load of albums. One album in the library for...

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    Is that a Chord M-Scaler in a Chorale range case, that is under the DAVE? I've not heard of those. Can't see one on the Chord Electronics website. Is it something you made using the circuits from an M-Scaler, or is it Chord made? (My guess is you made it. I think if Chord had made it, they...

    The KSE1200 also scale up with the Chord TT2, so may even go further with the DAVE.

    Comment by 'GreenBow' in item 'Shure KSE1500 Electrostatic Earphone System'

    I have both the Hugo 2 and the Mojo. I have the Shure KSE1200 not the KSE1500. I think the KSE1200 has the same amplifier section as the KSE1500, so should sound the same. (KSE1200 does not have a built in DAC, so none of the DSP functionalty of an equaliser.) I disagree wholeheartedly that...

    Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]

    Some people claim they do not have an adjustment phase. However I don't understand why. What I said is what I experienced so don't call me a liar, and friend. Many other people report the same as me. It's also what Rob Watts refers to 'brain burn-in'. If you want to dispute me any more...

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    Dynaudio make some stunning speakers. They also make some active ones, but I think their actives have digital imputs too. Unlikley you would use the DACs in them though, so it seems a waste of money for that. Unless your TT2 wasn't always connencted to some active speakers. They review well...

    Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]

    My two-cents on your post, and to all upgraders to Mojo 2. I would suggest leave the EQ off for a week or two. That's unless you are outright wanting to recreate the Mojo (1) tonality of course. Or compensating for brighter headphones. Anyway most press reviews of the Mojo 2 suggest it has...

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    I had a slight free accidental upgrade with my TT2, with TT2-speaker adapters. Or rather, I removed a downgrade. SORRY- long post I know. I had been using my TT2 driving speakers for a while. Have used it like this on and off. Anyway long story short the adapter cables that I made were...

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

    I would not worry about it. With every Chord DAC upgrade I thought the new one sounded bright. However it's the adjustment to the better soundstaging, timbre, and detail, that takes time. Initially it is perceived as brightness. Although the Mojo 2 is said to be neutrally tuned, whereas the...

    Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]

    Those are different types of noise. Ground noise travels via ground rails. PC noise that gets into the DAC travels via USB data rails. Most Chord DACs have usb data rail noise filtering.
