Thanks guys, I think I'm going to get iDSD BL. Mojo has high resolution but it lacks a bit low end.
You'll be glad you did. I also got rid of my mojo long ago with lack of bass power being one of the reasons why.
But whereas on the old iDSD I had the bass boost always on and never touched it, I don't always have it on with my black edition.
The thing to remember about the black edition's bass boost is
recording dependent not headphone dependent.
Depending on how heavy the bass in the recording is, and it might not even be heavy, just mixed too loud, EQ and the black edition's power are gonna be enough.
On at least 90% of well mixed, well recorded, not vinyl or cassette ripped music, I leave the bass switch on.
I spent half the time in normal mode and half in turbo mode I would say. I've also noticed it sounds slightly better if it's running off battery power as opposed to USB line power. And, you need to let the battery drain itself once in a while especially if you're like me and using the iDSD almost always sitting at a desk.
The DD's...
Honestly I am not upset to set the DD doesn't make the list, but while I don't need another bass cannon (I have both SZ's still), it will be nice to have one that is studio tuned, honestly I was extra hyped when I heard that, since I don't currently have any headphones for use in the studio... and headphone time there is never anywhere close to the final mixdown. I think I will have fun with them still.
I don't have tracking yet but it's only been about a day since I ordered. I will probably get tracking in an email a minute after posting this.
Ok see you guys in a while. I'm being bombarded with diabetes medication ads despite not having or ever googling such a thing
edit.... I guess all my old EQ screenshots got lost in the site switch. Here is my current SZ2k EQ. I use it with other headphones too though but might turn down the 1k-2k boost a little.
