Pictures of Your Portable Rig (part XVI)

Yes, there's a little bit of love for Sony... but just a little bit.

What's the story?

Technically there should be no difference in terms of signal processing.

@nmatheis

The DAP of the player is bypassed in favour of the mojo's DAP technology. The DAP should only be a transport.

Try it out for yourself and I can promise you that differences can be quite large.i can't exactly tell you why, but if you take a look at the hifi market, there is a huge streamer/server industry that aims to build a good transport for the dac. If you don't hear the difference after trying, feel free to disagree but do give the esther a try as a transport for the mojo, you will not regret it.

I can't explain it either but when I hook my ZX2 to the Mojo, it just sounds better than other sources.  Though I hope Sony with its big ass digital out dongle (with a processing chip inside) better have better results...

cant put that in my pocket. The connection sticks out a lot.

Luckily I don't use this in my pocket heh.
 
ZX2 balanced sounds better than Mojo, so I don't need it with my IEM's.

Nearly all Walkmans from Sony I collected over the years. I've only sold the NWZ-ZX1060 and those bad sounding iPods! The Software from Sony was far inferior to iTunes but the Walkman devices sounded much better and they do look more attractive than the iPods.

Nice collection.

DX50 and a 18v cmoy amp that I bought in 2012 and have recently rediscovered. Rediscovering the amp was a good thing because my Audinst amp-hp battery is dying and I don't need to spend more money.

Anyone got some Shure se846 love?

iHifi812v2 + Little Bear B4 Portable Hybrid Tube-Amp @ Shockwave III
 
Stunning sound for little money and a nice glow on top of it!

The Noble SAVANNA works very well with my iBasso DX90 - but truth to be told I find that the DX90 works very well with everything, no matter whether IEMs or full-sized headphones, because of its key features (very fine-grained volume control, no hiss, super low output impedance...).

Stacking time...

Noble Audio SAVANNA with my Chord Electronics Mojo plus Leckerton Audio UHA-6S.MKII stack.
