Is it worth adding a Linear Power Suppy to Mojo. Since it more or less seems to run off the battery and power is just going to the charging circuit I was not sure if it would make much difference. And no power is used off the USB data input. I've seen some on ebay for $50 to $150 from China...

HEK Upgrade was extended indefinitely. http://www.head-direct.com/index.php/exclusive-offer-for-loyal-he1000-v1-owners.html

For those that upgraded that live in USA, after you send them to NewYork address do they forward it to China. Or is the upgrade done in NewYork. When you received V2 where were they shipped from. Do you receive a new pair or do they move your drivers into a new shell.

If I buy a used pair of HE1000 V1's and they are not registered to first owner can I get away with upgrading them to V2's?

Use USB with a PC. You get the full range of formats over USB and most accurate timing. You automatically get ASIO/Wasapi with USB on Windows too. You don't need an exotic USB cable either. Sit back and enjoy.

I just bought both of those as well and compared them in my review of mojo.   Review is here http://www.head-fi.org/products/chord-mojo/reviews/18088   I'll be curious of your opinion.

What does this post mean?

  Again, I'm not an MQA fan. But this comment is also unfair. And also doesn't belong in this thread.   If say a recording was recorded at 768 and Mixed and 384 and released at 44, 192, and 384 (all FLAC)   Is the 44 Considered "Lossy"? Is the 192 Considered "Lossy"? Is the 384 Considered...

​I am NOT a fan of MQA for some of the reasons you sited. But I think it's unfair to go bashing MQA for a group of folks that look very favorably upon MQA or want to have an open mind about it.   Like he said there are plenty of threads for that.   It's unfair to question their reasoning for...

I've posted my Meridian Prime Headphone Amp review in the Reviews section if anyone is curious.   http://www.head-fi.org/products/meridian-prime-headphone-amplifier/reviews/18160

  I hate when people say Meridian "House Sound". Meridian DAC/AMP sounds NOTHING like their DSP Speakers and do not implement their "hybrid volume" control that they have used for eons in their Preamps and DSP Speakers.   Your choice of headphones will dictate the bulk of the "House Sound"...

If you are using ASIO or WASAPI you "should" be bitperfect but not always. Some players might have say an Software EQ that you might want to defeat. Close doesn't mean physically close. Like if your USB DAC doesn't support ASIO or WASAPI Then one common thing to do is set computer volume to...

Sometimes BitPerferect isn't a huge difference (because your close) Sometimes BitPerfect is huge because you have things really messed up. So having bitperfect tells you that you have it setup right and your getting the most out of your hardware. To check you are bitperfect test with a DSD...

Thanks for the list. I did hear a difference and I talked about it my Meridian Prime Headphone Amp review. http://www.head-fi.org/products/meridian-prime-headphone-amplifier/reviews/18160

Please list some Tidal (or other) examples that I can A/B that are clearly an improvement over non MQA hi-res or even better than red book CD. I listen to a wide variety of music but a little variety in genre would be great. So far I hear no difference in MQA using Meridian Prime with...

Great Post !!   To top that off MQA (Bob Stuart) says A/B testing isn't valid (because of conditioning), which is kind of admitting the difference is subtle. Yet, all the advocates claim they can clearly hear a significant difference. When I hear those types of claims I immediately dismiss...

  If for what ever reason you don't like the Mojo, FatWyre has an outrageous %20 Restocking Fee !! Try to find dealers that are Fullfilled through Amazon. See the "Help" Tab when you lookup the FatWyre Vender on Amazon.

Yes.

Expensive or not they will not make a sound difference. Sure, build quality and flex etc. matters but sound wise, something ain't right there.

I was joking. It's an Async DAC. DATA is copied to it in little chunks, 100% accurately, every time and RECLOCKED out !!! Do you test the airways when you download a music file over WIFI or LTS. Let me guess, you folks do test that.

Do you guys test your SATA cables too? Do you test your micro SD cards too? I've heard Sandisk Extremes have unbelievable imaging. Only after a few weeks of burn in of course. This is just nuts. It's an asynchronous DAC !! Do you know what that even means? USB Data Cables won't make a...

Brand new Mojo S/N M049xxx I can't detect any hiss. Even tried blasting a "Silent" FLAC while charging.   All stock cables driving HiFiMan X V2's. (was using Beyerdynamic T1.2's)
