Yes, I love them. They are detailed but really fun to listen too, really good bass and the top end is sweet and never hits any harshness. I prefer the supplied foam tips but even the silicon ones are ok.Any good? I get interested in these every time they come up at a good price.
Thanks for the info, will look out for them next time the deal pops up.Yes, I love them. They are detailed but really fun to listen too, really good bass and the top end is sweet and never hits any harshness. I prefer the supplied foam tips but even the silicon ones are ok.
My favourite IEMS before these were the Etymotic ER2XR byt the IE300 are a proper step up from them. I got them for £114 on black Friday and what a bargain they have proved to be. They love the Chord Mojo as well which is a bonus.
I tried it briefly, it was surprisingly good, but practically difficult at the moment as the CCA is buried in the old cabinet that's currently in use.There's definitely something to be said for keeping things simple especially when experimenting. Enjoying good tunes doesn't have to cost a fortune as you have found out for yourself.
Did you ever try driving your headphones direct off of the CCA? Volume can be controlled via it's app.
Very nice. I'm a big fan of Beresford DACs and I am appreciating my own Sennheiser HD 600 more and more.My current set up, very modest, and elderly in parts, the Arcam alpha must be 30+ years, owned from new! Very happy with it all though
No, they are HD600, not sure how old as I bought them 2nd hand. I replaced the headband and ear cups with genuine parts, and just use the standard cable. I find it a good match with the DAC.Very nice. I'm a big fan of Beresford DACs and I am appreciating my own Sennheiser HD 600 more and more.
Are those Sennheiser 650?
I'd definitely like to try the Beresford SEG with a LPSU at some point, seem to have a lot of fans!My current set up, very modest, and elderly in parts, the Arcam alpha must be 30+ years, owned from new! Very happy with it all though
I run the SEG off a 12 lead acid battery, works a treatI'd definitely like to try the Beresford SEG with a LPSU at some point, seem to have a lot of fans!
The Arcam looks mint!!
I can really see the appeal of this! What are all these devices?!
Let's do some late night testing with a bit of chi-fi (and a German amp)
One of the things I enjoy being primarily a headphone listener is having multiple setups that can easily be changed around. No room, no backbreaking amps and no worrying about speaker placement. Sit back and just geek out. Nice.

I have the original Mojo, so lacking the EQ and also the clever mains connection, but I enjoy using it with the Senn IE300, just slip Youtube Music in to shuffle mode and the combo is really excellent. In fact you forget you are listening to compressed music.Bought meself a Chord Mojo 2 to replace my knackered iPod Classic and Touch, portable duties in mind.
Can hook up the mobile for out and about and the iPad for summer listening in the garden.
And.... I love it. Sounds excellent, and the eq system is really good,
So impressed I'm even struggling of an evening choosing between the Feliks Elise from hi-fi or the Mojo with Qobuz on the iPad. Likely new toy bug but still.
Colour me impressed. And it drives the Audeze LCD-2 Classics nicely, which surprised me.

As well as the above two systems and the Mojo set up I'm also using, downstairs, The RME with the Focal Elegias. Four systems up and running at the moment.
Assuming your phone has no 3.5mm out, how do you connect to the Mojo?Four is going it some. I'm on three headphone systems and three hi fi systems (one in outhouse for the exercise bike).
Headphone wise:
Main hi-fi into Feliks Elise
Chord Mojo 2 into Arcam rHead in day room
Chord Mojo fed from iPad or mobile for garden and portable duties
Headphones too many and have just bought a new cable for the HD6xx which were sitting in a drawer.
Audeze LCD-2 Classics my current favourite phones. Need some eq, highly unorthodox eq in my case but they sound so nice.
I've reached saturation point
