Been listening to Macy Gray's Stripped, vinyl, Linn LP12, Mojo Audio's modded MicroZOTL2, HEK v1, Man, that's nice sounding!
Just looking for a good amp to go with mojo at a $500 price range
The Mojo is an amp!(with headphone outputs – no dedicated line outputs for bypassing the internal «amp»).

Are you quite sure? I recently sold my Cavalli LC to a guy that tested it in a coffee house using his phone into the Mojo and then again onto the LC, sounded just fine to my ears. You can put it into a preamp/pass through mode, no?
The only thing an amp does in my experience is coloring the sound – which may absolutely be to your liking (as it will add some «authority» in many cases), but you sacrifice transparency and accuracy.
Yawn...
Receiving my hek v2 tomorrow so new to this forum
Used the mojo with hex sounded great
I had heard mojo needed an amp for hek aren't these forums for helping people
Sorry you're so bored

You haven't been on this thread, as you note.
We do this routine about 1-2 times a month.
That makes me question your motivation to post in it. Do you seriously want to have tuna47 buy a $500 amp for «improving» the sound of his Mojo? Why is it that I prefer Mojo and Hugo without any amp I have at my disposal with the HE1000? It's extremely unlikely that I wouldn't hear any sign of strain and overload or lack of control and dynamics. I don't have your MicroZotl which you seem to like (probably justifiedly), but a bunch of other high-quality and high-(enough-)power headphone amps which would clearly show the difference between strained and relaxed presentation. They do show a difference, but in favor of the direct connection – with every single criterion you could mention, particularly naturalness and accuracy. Now the difference between our perceptions could really be caused by the circumstance that I use a carefully equalized HE1000, so don't have to rely on (euphonic) synergetic effects. What do you think?

Can you please stop already? We get the point. Time to move on.
