No matter the OS, OSX or Windows, if you aren't running a program that outputs the sampling rate from the file then the sampling rate that is defined in the system audio settings will be used. For OSX I use Audirvanna+. I don't know about Windows audio software but I imagine a program like Foobar or JRiver would be an option.

Can chord mojo apply enough volume by using iPhone and HD800S? anyone has this combination?

 

[Anwer]

I have now connected the mojo using a USB cable and selected the Chord ASIO foobar plugin. Now the sampling rate changes correctly. Doesn't SPDIF support ASIO?

Very steep. I'm probably getting anyway, I like the look and design, only to be another waste once their modules are released.

Been watching movies with the Mojo, quite the experience. Absolutely love it. Took it a step further too, added the Creative E5 to the mix for eq purposes for movies. It does introduce some noise unfortunately, but once I lowered the E5 volume it went away, otherwise I wouldn't be able to tolerate it.

Mojo-E5-Tralucent Ref 1 Too. Breathtaking. Love movies with iems/headphones. Doesn't get much better. You can hear every little detail. Was watching a talk show, and you could literally hear the breathing and little noises people make with their mouths when talking.

 
So are you optical out from the E5 to MoJo?

 

[warrior1975]

No. The other way. The input on the E5 is the smaller optical connection. So optical in to mojo, analog out mojo to E5 line in.

 

[sonickarma]

No. The other way. The input on the E5 is the smaller optical connection. So optical in to mojo, analog out mojo to E5 line in.

Ok thanks for confirming, what are the main benefits from the E5 in your experience?

No. The other way. The input on the E5 is the smaller optical connection. So optical in to mojo, analog out mojo to E5 line in.

ohhh my buddy jmills8
 
just woke up and already we had a debate about eq in fiio x7 thread, warrior1975 handled it well 
 
so imagine my morning

Never EQ an AK dap cause AK eq sucks.

no it was in fiio x7 thread, just go there

  Can chord mojo apply enough volume by using iPhone and HD800S? anyone has this combination?

Enough volume yes. Matching wise, mixed opinion. If you could take your mojo to a shop to audition the pair, that would be the definite answer. If not, I guess you have a lot of finding to do on opinions.

 

[Light - Man]

  Chord posted the price will be $95.  Kinda steep if you ask me.

 
Rumour has it (possibly started by Adele???) that to justify the cost, Chord have developed a special new alloy called Tintanium and have the cowhide impregnated with a blingy Scrotanium substrate for added durability and also to attract female buyers??? 

 
All purely other peoples conjecture and is not associated with any random thoughts that I tend to have!  

 
P.S. It is raining here and I need to get out soon and get some fresh air.

I'm using a Toslink cable to 3.5 SPDIF on my laptop to connect the mojo and I have set the output to 96K in Windows sound settings, but the power LED is always green even if I play 44K files. Any suggestions?

Use ASIO output so no oversampling is happening.

 

[Anwer]

I resorted to using WASAPI in foobar since ASIO doesn't seemingly work with SPDIF. But I'm getting some dropouts from time to time. Should I play a bit with the buffer?

 

[theveterans]

If you get dropouts with WASAPI, you need to adjust the buffer size/latency to 100ms or higher. Try 100ms BTW, WASAPI is fine too, but what I like about ASIO is you don't have to close the program to return the audio output to Direct Sound, and lower than 50ms latency ability. I get no dropout on ASIO @ 40ms latency though, but I use the USB input of Mojo rather than SPDIF
