Do you know how I could possibly set up an HA2 to work with a Google Pixel or any other Type-C phone? It seems like this isn't possible, at least right now.
Sorry, I haven't dealt with USB-C yet.

That happens only if you use a standard OTG cable. Use the one that Oppo provides or an equivalent and that won't be an issue.

That's interesting.. why
That's interesting, why is it the case? Is the Oppo-supplied micro to micro USB cable not standard?
It was explained in the HA-2 thread better than I can state it, here.
hello, i purchased the oppo ha-2 se and happy with it for my audeze lcd-3, el-8 and hd 600 as a portable device. i am looking to purchase a hd 800s and wondering if anyone have the experience of ha-2se with the hd800s. the reason why i am asking is i am trying to decide if i should return it and get a mojo instead. thanks!
From the perspective of being capable of driving the HD800, the HA-2 SE was able to accomplish the task. On a modern recording FLAC with the iPhone set to about 80% and the SE's pot at 4, the volume peaked at 80.6 dB(A). With the iPhone at 100% and the SE volume pot fully turned up, the volume peaked at 108 dB(A); Way too much for listening.
If you're looking to improve the sound, then the Mojo can do that, but the SE is capable of driving the array of headphones you have. If you don't already have a desktop setup, that's where I would tell you to invest instead of portable gear. Given the headphones you own or are about to own, they would benefit from a good desktop setup.
thanks for the advice TimeLord! I do have a woo audio wa7 with the tube power supply for home use that i am quite happy with (especially with my pre-fazor lcd-3). the ha-2se (or the possible mojo) is just for when i am not at home and use together with my el-8 closed. so far i have been happy with the combo. maybe i will stick with them for now (unless i see a big sale on on mojo, which i doubt..).
the purchase of the tube power supply was half out of aesthetics concern and the other half out of what woo audio says on its website. they said it would be better and i trusted them lol! i haven't got a chance to hear the standard power supply but now i am curious to find out how much the improvement is. i am currently just using the stock tube on the tube power supply. what do you use and do they make a big impact? i would have thought that the impact would mostly comes from upgrading the tubes for the amp.
funny that you mentioned the cable! i was initially searching for a shorter cable for the el-8c and one thing leads to another i was looking at the ac power cable. i haven't bought one but the nrg-2 is definitely on the list. again i am hoping there will be a sale on them (unlikely?) do you have other suggestion that might be cheaper? thanks!
i was just looking at the Electro Harmonix 6C45 Gold Plated Pins and it seems they are extremely difficult to find (except for woo audio still have it.) i also came across a post on the bottlehead forum saying that these particular tubes are no longer produced. do you think this is reliable?
I have used the Oppo with more phones that you can ever dream of
