    Chord Mojo 2 EQ settings

    I reduced a little further the 3 kHz increment, from +2 to +1, since I notice a weird timbre in the upper mids with the higher increment. Currently: 20 Hz: 0 // 125 Hz: -2 // 3 kHz: +1 // 20 kHz: +1

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

    Hi, it is very interesting, but I am very confused on how to calculate the actual dB SPL by the IEMs at a given volume color. For example, I use the shures se846. According to one source in internet, their sensitivity is 135.54 dB/V SPL; according to the manufacturer webpage, it is 114 dB...

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

    The mojo 2 has problems, and has a homebrew kind of feeling to it, with its respective issues. The sound is great, and it is beautiful; but quite obviously it is made at somebody’s garage or basement (not literally but you know what I mean). I love the device, but I fully understand some people...

    Hi, Another question. It just happened today, twice. The first time I though the unit may have been turned on on my pocket or so, and then the volume button pressed by accident. But it happened a second time and now I am confused. I did not used the Mojo 2 for a few days. Today in the...

    Hi, I would like to ask, if any of you notice a light leakeage on the Mojo 2 sides, as in the picture attached. Many thanks. Note: I only see it on one side (where the headphone connections are, as in the picture), and directly around the usb ports.

    Chord Mojo 2 EQ settings

    Hi, Thanks, I am trying it as well. It sounds great, but unfortunatelly I get fatigue after some time with the treble that loud. I am using the tripple flange tips, which offer a very deep insertion, and probably the high frequencies come too direct in the inner ear. What tips are you using...

    Shure SE846 Impressions Thread

    Hi. While sleeping, my SE846 dropped to the floor from bed height (approx. 50 cm). I read BA are relatively sensible to impact damage. Shall I worry from such impacts?

    Chord Mojo 2 EQ settings

    Hi, For those using the Mojo 2, the SE846, and the EQ, what is your setting? Currently I am exploring the sound. I would like to optimize this EQ as much as possible to get somehow neutral sound with a little sparkle in the treble and the solid bass the SE846 has (without making them V...

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

    Hi, I entered this forum to ask about a good DAC pairing with my SE846. I know it is a relatively old design and has been already many years in the market, but for me they are wonderful and wanted to have them for years. After the nice advise from users here, I bought the Mojo 2, which I love...

    Chord support was great and very quick in answering my question. The representative confirm it is a normal sound and is no issue. Very happy with how quick they answer my question and review the video. By the way, any of you have experienced, that the sound is better after the Mojo 2 is on and...

    Yes, it happens when the light sequence finishes at boot up, and when I turn the unit off. It comes from inside the aluminium case. It is a relatively loud click sound.

    Hi, I tried to find a clear answer to my question in google and in the forum, but I am still confused, so I would appreciate your help. When using the Mojo 2 and the Iphone´s Tidal app, I get a maximum of 96 kHz/24 bit resolution on master. In my windows PC, the same. I do not seem to be able...

    Shure SE846 Impressions Thread

    Hi! Just bought a new unit of Mojo 2! Had to drive to another city because near me (200 km around) is sold out. Just in a parking lot listening to music 🤣🥲. Great for Sinatra! Sound reminds me of my old Lindemann DAC, but from my iPhone ❤️ and using Spotify 🎉. Rediscovering Leonard Cohen as...

    Shure SE846 Impressions Thread

    Hi, with the dongle I can hear the noise as something low frequency, but unless I increase the volume (by a lot) could not distinguish it in detail. The MOJO 2 resolved it better (to my ears). The track is Café Tacvba - Unplugged (1995) - Las Flores, at the intro. Edit: An example of a song...

    Shure SE846 Impressions Thread

    Hi, I have just tested the Mojo 2. First, it was a clear and no questionable improvement to the dongle to me. Much more musical. In a live concert I noticed the singer breathing and I though it was me because of the covid mask I wear. Micro details everywhere. Nice soundstage. Very very...

    Shure SE846 Impressions Thread

    Hi, I tried today the Dragonfly Cobalt. I could not hear almost any improvement comparing it with the apple dongle. Massive Attack - Karmacoma: the bass sounded congested with the Dragonfly Cobalt, IMHO much more so than with the dongle. Radiohead - How to disappear completely: the bass line...

    Shure SE846 Impressions Thread

    Hi! My comment is specifically related to the se846 (balanced, more output impedance). Plus I am not that willing to buy an extra cable that is only compatible with one device. I used to have a HD650, I loved it! powered by a Lehmann desktop amp. Also had the HD800 which was more detailed and...

    Thanks again. Specifically a balance output is a no-go for me. It is a shame many otherwise interesting devices are using such a thing.

    Many thanks for the replies! I will try to test the Chord Mojo 2 at a local store next week, and probably the DFC and the Hiby if available. I have read there is no problem using the Mojo with iOs devices. Is there something else I shall be aware? Thanks again, Daniel

    Shure SE846 Impressions Thread

    Hi all, I recently bought a shure se846 for mobile use. Currently I have it plugged in my iPhone 6s+ using the apple dongle. The sound is quite ok, not as detailed as probably possible with a better dac/amp, but fine enough. I also tried it directly from the headphone jack but the bass was...
