Yes, I have the Mojo and it sounds awesome with the Sine.

mate, did the sine benefit with the mojo's dac by using sine's audio jack only?

I use iPhone-Mojo-Sine or Samsung Edge 7-Mojo never used either with the Cipher Cable.

Hi Does anybody has a mod or a replacement earpad ?
 
has they are, they are so unconfortable, even reducing the claming a lot.
 
I'm wearing glasses and i can't stand more more than half an hour.
 
also even with a lotoo paw gold, they are a bit lifeless to my ears, but extremy transparent, i admit.

Ill be making a purchase this week.
And this two are the only choices i have.
And i needed to decide quickly

Pls help.

There is no better/worse/winner/loser -- they're both fantastic headphones. You're approaching the decision the wrong way and will just run in circles here.
 
Instead, think about how you're going to use it (at home/stationary or lots of travel/portability)...what sort of source you're playing from (DAP, laptop, amp/dac, iDevice in case you ever want to spring for Cipher cable) and what sort of music you like (and sound signature you're after)

For "in there" - Are you curious if Cipher cable would produce quality sound without separate DAC?

Yeah not enough information was given like at all.

But no doubt is Fostex Tx00 a great headphones. I've read many good things about it. You will have to unscrew a lot of screws to replace headphone cable though. Other than that the wood finish seems very high quality.

If isolation and portability is not of concern either choice would be fantastic. A recommendation is to see if you can try both and return one.

Oh yeah, another good bit others are asking is the cipher cable. Which makes your portability very light.

Since I posted Sine was available for in-store pick up at many New York City Apple Stores, none of them have same day pick up. I've checked some west coast stores, same thing. Funny thing is, they are "in stock" for shipping to home, delivery in 2 days, but delivery to store is "about a week." At the same time, Audeze web site has had "back ordered" message almost a month now. Hmmm.

In order to get into Apple stores Audeze would have to guarantee stock availability within certain limits so they are likely prioritizing Apple stores.

Sounds reasonable but what changed is - before I posted - almost every Apple Store in NYC had "same day" pickup. Odd coincidence I guess but after I posted - none of them have same day pick-up anymore. And ship to store takes "about a week" but home delivery in 2 days. That seems odd. If they can deliver to me in 2 days at home why would it take "about a week" to pick up at store? Odd. I think I should not have posted that info. :mad:

I'm surprised more people haven't shared their Cipher EQ settings. After lots of experimentation, here's where I've settled. I tuned it to sound great when I'm outdoors (and dealing with periphery noise like wind, cars, etc)...but I've gotten so addicted to it I keep it the same indoors too. (although I admittedly don't use my Sine as much indoors, and use my open-backed pair instead)

I've been using Tyll's settings from his review:



I will load your EQ settings as my second preset and compare.

We use it all the time..even for testing internally. It sounds awesome.

Just out of curiosity, do you use the Geek Out V2 for testing? I found it paired very well with the Sine.

A cool friend MScott58 has loaned me his Audeze SINE. I am going to the grocery, these amazing headphones driven by my QP1R.

Thanks for the look. Ha, Ha, you look like a Viking wearing a futuristic headphone Love it!

Why do you cut so much away? It seems you are trying to make them seem brighter?

Spent a few minutes going back and forth between the sine's (iPhone) and ether c's (mojo/iPad) synced on the same songs. This is what I came up with.
Of course the ether's are more resolving up top so I'm probably compensating but it's been sounding pretty great to me.
The eq isn't really very drastic. It doesn't sound like the differences in value are truly decibels even though that's the way they are labeled. Also there's definitely some dynamic processing going on. I can't get them to distort no matter what I do with the EQ. To my ears adjustments sound like Half the value they're labeled as. My curve is much more subtle than it looks in the screenshot.

Cipher cable will only work with Apple devices; I don't know how to hook it up to my Mojo so I use the normal cable with the Mojo and Cipher cable with Apple devices.

thank you very much for your input. very helpful!
actually, im also having second thoughts wether i sell or not my mojo and x3ii or just depend on the cypher cable.
but knowing i do have some iems that depend on the mojo... so i may stick on it for awhile.
 
but how about sound quality?
may i know which do you prefer between the two?
