Hiss is not a issue with Mojo, just to increase dynamic range a bit more.

Cheers

Interesting idea, not sure if (a) that really works and (b) it would be audible.

I have an Ifi ear buddy on the way, I'll do some measurements to confirm. The ear buddy is basically an IEmatch but with only 1 fixed -15dB setting (OI = 1.5Ohm).

Not much of a rig currently. Looking forward to getting the M3s soon though...

Hey, it's (should be) all about the music...the player/IEMS are only vehicles...

Looks like you had a lot of fun with it.

It's a good player. As is the new M3s!


There was the 24/96 USB stick that came with the 2009 box remaster, but also I don’t know if you have heard the new remix of “The Lonely Heart Club Band”. I normally I would think it a crime to remix the Beatles, but it’s actually really well done and allows each part to be heard a little more clear.

All of the Beatles remixes are an incredibly worthy upgrade over the original in my opinion. Even if you aren't a huge Beatles fan the sound quality on these is awesome.

I always thought the original Beatles vinyl sounded best, even better than the 2009 remasters. But it's also always nice to get the digital Japan first pressings for reference (going portable). But some Japan first pressings are weird too. I would swear my Black Sabbath "Master Of Reality" Japan first pressing is a needle drop. It also gets louder as you listen.....noticeably (laughably) louder. But on a whole the Japan first pressings CD wise are non-brickwalled and contain a level of smooth non-compression. Still at times remasters are cool. Anyone hear the new Steve Miller Band Ultimate hits remaster 2017? I can live with that.
