I would like to try a Jitterbug on my PC.

Hi, I tried some dap: iBasso DX80 analytical sound and tiring, onkyo dp x1 also a little tiring and the sound was not well filled, ak jr not detailed enough.
I grado sr 225E headphones you think a samsung s3 + mojo will have an engaging and not annoying sound with thrasch metal music?

I have the 225e and the Mojo. I love it. However I do feel it needs better headphones.

Same here (original 225s) and I have to admit that my favorite open cans are slightly bloated and the mids are too forward... 

It pretty much took the Mojo to come to this conclusion...

Now with the mojo the sound is more balanced and the midle are not invasive?

I thought I'd just try a Jitterbug in my chain.I picked up the bug today and since I had the fitting adapters on hand I tried it on my phone first. It was a pleasant surprise. It's too early to give any real impressions, but I like what I hear ...  For those of you who think that this is not usable on the go.... You are absolutely right... See for yourself ... If I recall correctly Rob recently said, that the jitterbug is more effective when used on a source powered from the grid... So I will definitely try the jitterbug on my Odroid and hope the improvement are even bigger in that scenario...

I have one, never considered using it with my phone, most likely because like Chord, I assumed that it would not bring much. But what the heck, I'll give it a go

I do use it with my Notebooks for the reason you noted.

No, just the opposite, I'm afraid The Mojo revealed the weaknesses of the 225. With my older DAC (Headroom Bithead) and even with the AQ Dragonfly, it was not evident (to me) but with the Mojo it is.

Yes, Rob tested the Jitterbug with the DAVE and it did make a minor improvement in SQ when he used his laptop plugged in to the wall. With the laptop running on battery power he did not hear a difference with or without the Jitterbug. So it will depend on how noisy your source is. In the end though he did emphasize it was a minor difference.

Edit: Yeah, this was already stated. Apologies.

Awesome, T4S 

I typically have my Notebooks plugged in (mains / AC) and run Jitterbug->USB interconnect->Mojo.

Was very close to getting Ether C to pair up with Mojo but got HD800 instead. Should arrive within 3 days. Will leave impression! Happy listening

Lacks bass.

Hey, just got a Sony Xperia E5 and the Mojo is not working with it (Android 6). (...)

You tried the Onkyo app?

I dunno. Just did a quick Google search for you.
