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

[Music Alchemist]

  I have no way to sell my iems as I have no bank accounts or credit cards to accept payments  I am in a pretty rural part of Northern California and nobody around here is really into audio except for the high school and college kids with Beats and apple buds.

 
You have Internet access. You can get a bank account online, connect it to a PayPal account, and sell your headphones on the for sale/trade forum here, for example. Or you could trade them. (I love trading headphones!)
 

  Money is a bit tight for me.  Would I be better off buying new headphones first or the Mojo?  Which would improve my musical enjoyment more initially upon purchase?

 
Musical enjoyment is subjective, so no one but you can answer that question.
 
Are you in love with the headphones you already have? If not, focus on upgrading them before worrying about the Mojo.
 

There's no headphone like the AEON for the money.

 
You are making me so curious!

Well I guess it also depends on how happy you are with your current headphones. There's no headphone like the AEON for the money.

Okay.  I don't have enough money for both and won't for a while.  I only Have V-Moda M100 and they are pretty uncomfortable.  I am pretty much completely sick of my Shure SE846 for the most part.  I only use them out and about lately when I need them.  Aeon then?
 
Thanks
 
Riley

I think buying the Aeon first is my best bet.  I have internet access just I cannot have bank accounts or Paypal for personal reasons.  I had financial aide in college and I can't 't have any credit or bank accounts still for a while.
 
Thank you

Why the million questions and then the million reasons you wont buy?

Not trying to be a pain.  Just nervous about buying what is for me really expensive gear.  It makes it hard to make up my miond especially with this amount of money we are talking about.  Sorry if I annoyed you.
 
Cheers

Ever been to a headphone meet Riley? If not, I suggest finding one or a speaker shop near you that has Hp to listen to. It's worth the trip!

I say don't buy things you can't comfortably afford. I only bought the Mojo when I could have bought a Hugo TT if I wanted to.

You never going to know until you have it or used it. Reading on products will lead on a never ending journey.

That is kind of the problem.  I have none really near me.  I live up by Chico California.  I am going to San Francisco next month and am going to hit a store or two there, but it is still pretty limited there.  I farm almonds and walnuts and will be getting to the busy season in a few weeks or so and won't have much time to travel then.
 
Thank you kindly

Riley

I usually try not to.  I will let it go.
 
Thank you and my apologies

Dont worry some people buy expensive equipment on here like buying toilet paper, its not the case for everyone and like you say this is a lot money to you (and to me)

Suggest that, after some reasonable period of time and research, you make a decision and buy an item. If you end up not liking it you can always sell it for probably a modest loss, almost like renting it. That's the great thing with this stuff-- you can always sell it if it's well-known and well-regarded, which lessens the finality of any decision.

This made me giggle!

And don't forget trading! I know I mentioned it just a few posts ago, but there are so many exciting possibilities when you trade with other members here. You can get your hands on out-of-production items more easily that way too.

I don't know what the exact reason is, it might be the reclocking, or it might be the cleaner power, but the W4s recovery with a linear power supply does amazing things for my Hugo and mojo, everything is taken up a few notches, resolution, transparency, depth, you name it. All of a sudden the instruments and voices come to life, having a solid physical presence, Super focused pinpoint imaging and an incredible sense of space and depth, width and height.

 
What LPS are you using?
