saintkrusher Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Hello. What portable dac do you reccomend for Amarra for Tidal, Amarra SQ+ and Roon? I think about Audioquest Dragonfly Red but he does'nt support dsd and over 96khz. Od maybe Herus 2 but he is much expensive. Any think else? Link to comment
DZetye Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Chord Mojo is the best of the bunch Link to comment
saintkrusher Posted May 30, 2016 Author Share Posted May 30, 2016 What do you think about Meridian Explorer 2 with MQA support? Link to comment
DZetye Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 I,ve had them both. No contest. The Mojo punches way above its price point Link to comment
ralphoi Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Yep. +1 for the mojo Submerge in the music... Link to comment
MikeJazz Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 What do you think about Meridian Explorer 2 with MQA support? I listened to both the previous generation of Meridian Explorer and Dragonfly and they both were a disappointing act... lacking both detail and transparency specially at the midrange... So I went for a geek out...very happy with that for a pc companion. Today I would also look curiously at Mojo. http://www.computeraudiophile.com/members/mikejazz/ funded this campain: http://igg.me/at/geekpulseaudio/x/5216671 Link to comment

hornytoad Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Mojo is the best portable dac . I had the ifi micro idsd and sold it once I listened to the Mojo Plus the ifi is big for travel unlike the mojo Link to comment

The Mojo converts DSD to PCM 704k before playback. Link to comment

bmoura Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 The iDSD Micro is capable of native octa-rate DSD or DSD512! True. Are you using it with HQ Player in DSD 512 upsampling mode? I haven't tried that yet. Link to comment
hornytoad Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 I have more than one DSD album.... For non DSD material the Mojo is superior to the Ifi Micro idsd for portability and audio quality . Link to comment
misterspense Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 It seems common knowledge that Chord Hugo or Mojo sound best with PCM for instance redbook, and using Chords filter, and ifi sounds best with everything upsampled with HQplayer for instance to as high dsd as your computer can make realtime, preferrably dsd512. So where Im interested in, if there is anybody who compared both at those rates, so Mojo with normal pcm, and ifi idsd with the same music upsampled to dsd512. Link to comment
AnotherSpin Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 I have more than one DSD album.... I use HQPlayer to convert almost everything to DSD... Link to comment
