THE ORRONOCO AUDIO DIY

The Chord Mojo that I reviewed  here  is a spectacular little DAC. It is a portable DAC with headphones amplifier in one small package. I mostly using this Chord Mojo on my home stereo system that consist of gainclone amplifier  and DIY SB Acoustic Speakers . It is sound very good and far above it's price. The great sound is actually coming from the DAC inside Chord Mojo with the line output mode ON, pushing 3 volt audio signal to the amplifier. The battery life when using in this setup is not great, but very acceptable. For the portable use is about 8 hours great music enjoyment which is more than enough for me. The Chord Mojo using high grade aluminum body shell, meaning it is not so easy to dent if it is accidentally hit something. Unlike the Sony NW-A55 which I have  here , the aluminum body is in the different material class. Sony NW-A55 aluminum more soft and it got one dent as I accidentally hit it to the airplane chairs when I traveling to  Bali  fe...

Last week, I got a chance to enjoy the exotic island, Bali. This is my fourth times for whole of my life going to this beautiful island. Still, Bali has it's own magnet for me to enjoy and release the tension I got in my daily routine. In this travel companion, I bring my new DAP Sony NW-A50 along with the Sony MH1 earphones. I prefer the very portable device every time I traveling and previously the iPod is the only one I choose. In this time, I give a chance for Sony DAP going with me. Surprisingly, the sound from the headphones output are very good compares to iPod. The Sony sound signature has very smooth mid-range and vocal, more on warm sounding system.
