BTam Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Why is it not a good match for HD800? Is it for B&W P9 Signature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabercat Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 I suspect the high impedance of the HD800's is not the best match. Anyway I found bass to be lacking; not an issue on the Mojo with various lower impedance phones I've tried, as well as my Campfire Audio Andromeda's. I built a Bottlehead Crack tube amp and since then I'm happy as thats a great solution for the 800's. P9 Signatures (I have a pair myself) do work perfectly with Mojo but I'm intending to sell those as well as I find them uncomfortable to wear; a shame as they sound great.

BTam Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 I currently pair my P9 signature with Chord Hugo as headphones amp, do you think Mojo would improve from Hugo? Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabercat Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 I would think (and based on some quick research this view is generally supported) that they are likely to sound similar, given they are both from the same designer, Rob Watts at Chord, use the same -though differently implemented- multiple filter tap in FPGA technology and even have similar transistor based output stages with pretty much the same power handling capability. The major difference of course is that Mojo is much more portable, and can be paired with the Poly streaming module. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTam Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Thanks very much for your opinion. I agree the portability is one of my main thinking now. The Hugo is primarily used for my stereo system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
an10na Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Is this still available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
an10na Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 is this suitable to any amplifier? I am streaming from my phone directly into amp. Was wondering whether this would improve the outcome? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabercat Posted November 22, 2020 Author Share Posted November 22, 2020 Hi Yes its still available. If you are currently streaming from your phone directly into your amplifier then the Mojo should sound a lot better I am certain because it will bypass the noisy and usually low quality audio circuits in the phone’s headphone section, as well as provide the ability to access high bit rate streams. You will need an “OTG” cable to connect to an Android phone as the Mojo needs USB, similarly you’d need the Apple lightning to USB cable adapter, and then just plug the Mojo’s supplied USB lead into this. There are plenty of online guides to using Mojo with Android and Apple phones...Androids can be tricky. I used PC and Mac mostly for the short period I used it though did get it to work fine with an iPad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
