Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

[Joaco]

Jamming to the hugo right now. I personally think there is a significant differance. There is more depth bass is more impactful, treble is very accurate in that its clear but easy to listen to for hours. Very catharsis.

Thanks, Howdy!

Ordered my mojo today! Wanted to save for the Hugo2 and still will be knowing I could sell the mojo easily when the time comes. Anyways, I'm pretty excited lol.

Came out yesterday that Spotify might soon offer lossless streaming (Spotify Hi Fi) to compete with Tidal Hi Fi
...They're testing it now, experimenting with pricing.

Spotify also now has over 50 million subscribers (Apple = 20 million or so...Tidal = 1 million or so)...

they gained over 10 million within the last year alone ...Seems Roon will try to make partnerships with them again (were rebuffed before) according to comments on Darko's coverage, in the comments section by one who seems to be from Roon.

Great news imo...The more people start to turn onto better quality music, the better for us all ....the more mainstream it becomes the better  the possibility of new products and services.  And major players like Spotify and Sonos, etc all could help facilitate such with their popularity and brand awareness, regardless of whether you support streaming..(and Apple might offer ALAC lossless with their iPhone 8 fall release, esp if Spotify does go ahead with lossless ).

Ok guys, I definitely need some help here. I am expecting delivery of the new Oppo UDP-203 that I intend to use as source via it's RCA coaxial output to my Chord Mojo acting as a standalone DAC.

As you might guess, the issue here is the cable due to the Mojo's 3.5mm coaxial input. So I need a RCA to 3.5mm coaxial cable, or perhaps a RCA-3.5mm adapter.

Any suggestions here?

  Argh. Trying to resist buying the HD 600 since I already have so many headphones (though I may trade some away for another STAX system)...but I'm so curious how it will sound, especially on the Mojo! And it's only $288 on Amazon. I really liked the HD 650 even from the humble Schiit Fulla, and online info makes it seem like the HD 600 is like a more neutral version of that headphone. It never ends...my life revolves around headphones, I swear! XD
Edit: I have no willpower. Bought it...

 
Might as well give Sony MDR-Z1R a shot while you're at it.

Only one more month until the Hugo 2 is out!

Gotta catch 'em all!

 

 
Fun fact: Nearly all of the five figures worth of audio equipment I have owned was procured without using any actual income, and instead was gotten from getting rid of stuff I already had, and, more recently, getting an inheritance. In other words, I've barely even begun to try!

Hello, anyone have a manual test of fools to configure chord mojo with jriver?
I found some but not are very detailed.

Is there a player similar to audirvana in Windows?

Thanks for that. Is the cable good, is anyone using it?

Thanks.

Have you pre-ordered Hugo 2?

  Have you pre-ordered Hugo 2?

 
No. I don't preorder expensive things. And I'd rather have even better headphones before upgrading to it.

Settling on a headphone that will you will use for the next few years is a hard decision thats for sure. it took me quite a while to get to the K612 and it ended up being one of the cheapest!
