Perhaps explaining in as much detail possible - what you like about the Chords sonics would help with that. I know implementation plays a big role, but some dap manufacturers generally stick to a house sound, and while different tuning can make a difference, different dac chips generally retain certain sonic qualities. Just a thought.
I like the way the mojo + poly sound does not emphasize any particular frequency (to my ears), keeps a very good balance across the frequency range. For example, the bass is neither lacking or overpowering, it is just as much as needed and is tight. The timing of the music is spot on. The 'emotion' and 'energy' (warmth?) is very nice, it does not sound dry or too technical, while detail retrieval is very good.
I guess what I am looking for is higher resolution across the spectrum, especially the bass (goes deeper, with clearer audible differences in different frequencies, and needs to be extra tight and impactful rather than loose and boomy, could be slightly more powerful compared to mojo+poly). Better soundstage is also welcome. If the DAP has possibility of cross-feed (the sound of each channel plays in the other channel as well to simulate true stereo speaker listening), it would be a plus.
