Ferrum WANDLA - Impressions Thread
Specific recommendations for Wandla or @GoldenSound ’s general HQP recommendations? I asked in another forum what the equivalent HQP filers were to be close to the Wandla ones if you wanted to take them to 768kHz and @jlaako said their filters are finely tuned for Wandla, but closest are...- johnnym

Ferrum WANDLA - Impressions Thread
I am really eager to try this. I borrowed a Chord Dave for 6 months and compared to Wandla and Qutest. Not much difference between Wandla and Dave after a lot of testing, but there was this warmth/weight to the Dave I really liked that I will miss. If GSE gives me that back I’ll be so happy.- johnnym

Schiit Jotunheim 2 - Impressions Thread
I used the Mojo 2 to my Jotunheim at between the Azure and Indigo colours on the colour to voltage table. That’s up to mid-2V and it sounded great. I remember I got distortion when I upgraded to Qutest and tried the 3V setting and so moved back to the default 2V. So somewhere between 2V and 3V...- johnnym

CanJam London 2024 (July 20-21, 2024)
All booked! My third consecutive time also: that's three of us now. I don't need new kit this year so no itchy symptoms of hifi-must-spenditis so I'll be cruising the event just soaking it all in and maybe even enjoy it and speak to people (always anxious about meeting people off the internet)...- johnnym

Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
The answer is no damage whatsoever as I expect the power circuit is not used in the audio connection or is turned off based on the USB specifications. Think of it this way, if you plug your laptop into that socket to listen to music from the laptop, the USB cable carries charging power and the...- johnnym

Ferrum WANDLA GoldenSound Edition - Pre-Orders are Live!
Conversion system? I guess you can’t just distribute a new firmware or everyone could get a copy without paying. I’m really interested in how this will work technically. Then I’ll be in the queue to get it for my OG WANDLA.- johnnym

Exceptional in Every Detail: Say Hello to the IE 600
Just make sure your cable has the Sennheiser MMCX connector or it won’t fit. I made this mistake and had to return my cables as it didn’t fit.- johnnym

Ferrum WANDLA - Impressions Thread
Well that was a bit tense as it took 3 goes to update and after the first two tries the Wandla was unresponsive. Only the Ferrum Control app knew there was life in the system and it reported no firmware was installed at all. It's all installed now so I will listen this afternoon to see how it...- johnnym

Ferrum WANDLA - Impressions Thread
I’m on 3.0 🥲 Bought in October so I’ve had it a while. Shame to miss out on a hardware change, but will at least have a chance of firmware change.- johnnym

Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
I have mine arranged by wavelength of light because everyone’s colour perception isn’t the same and we’d only disagree on whether it really was red or not.- johnnym

Chord Electronics ☆ Poly ☆ (wireless & microSD module for Mojo) ☆★►USEFUL INFO on 1st PAGE!!◄★☆
I was assuming that Poly is already a server and this was an update to the server. Optimistically I see a new server as something you can more easily update (with your permission to update) and stops the blockage people have been complaining about the current process.- johnnym

Ferrum WANDLA - Impressions Thread
That really interesting, thanks. Chord says don’t connect both outputs, but Ferrum says no problem at all and you can do this. I recently had Ferrum and Chord confirm this for Wandla and DAVE. Where I use Oor for headphone listening and Rega Aethos for speaker listening. Doing this doesn’t...- johnnym

🤞 Ferrum are a good lot so I hope so. My guess is more awesome filters. WANDLA is pretty new so new model seems quick. ERCO was around a while I think before v2.- johnnym

Ferrum WANDLA - Impressions Thread
I bought mine after trying my own headphones on all the different Ferrum stacks at Can Jam. With and without Oor and Hypsos. I also grabbed ZMF Caldera and Susvara and sounded even better. I bought with 30 day return for home and never sent it back.- johnnym

CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE
Thanks so much. I ought to check if the previous owner had cross feed on or not. I assume it was off if not using headphones. Now I know how to turn it on for use with my headphone amp in DAC mode.- johnnym
