Chord Electronics ☆ Poly ☆ (wireless & microSD module for Mojo) ☆★►USEFUL INFO on 1st PAGE!!◄★☆
If found this works a bit easier when you flip this on its head (I started here as well when I got my Poly). Enable the iPhone’s hotspot. Use GoFigure to connect the Poly to it. No extra settings needed and your phone’s internet still works like normal. The Poly doesn’t really use any of...- rmkjr

Fathom from Campfire Audio - Official Thread
My Lotoo PAW S1 was quiet with them, but for what I have, that was the only one that was completely hiss free (I tried all the other sources in my sig). I'm on the same train of not wanting an extra thing dangling off and, pulling on the strain reliefs, and knocking about when it's in my...- rmkjr

2nd the iematch on the high setting. The slightly higher output impedance does the Fathom all sorts of favors as well as solving the hiss. Bloom carries them.- rmkjr

Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
Only thing I noticed when I tried this path to deal with very sensitive IEMs that I could hear the Mojo2's noise floor on, the external amp simply amplifies the hiss of the Mojo2 :) I picked up the new CA Fathoms, and they are the most sensitive IEM I have had to date. They pickup noise floor...- rmkjr

Campfire Chat - Official Campfire Audio 2024 Thread!
A couple of days of listening, Chord Mojo 2 -> iEMatch set at High -> CA Fathom, has to be one of if not the best IEM vocal presentations I have heard to date. Probably other sources too, but right now that’s my ringer. Detailed, rich, smooth, all at the same time somehow. iEMatch was really...- rmkjr

Fathom from Campfire Audio - Official Thread
First listen, and first CA IEM, quite nice and liking the tuning. They sure are sensitive to amp hiss. I take it, much the same as Andromeda, and that this is the lowest impedance IEM I have ever listened to myself. Substantial hiss on Mojo 2, RS6 (lesser), and C9 (fed by Mojo 2 or RS6)...- rmkjr

Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
I take it his concern is the HDL being available digitally in any form outside of Chord internally or what’s flashed to physical hardware. I would be nice though for edge cases found after the fact like the USB issues. Perhaps encrypting it and making the Poly itself decrypt it. But I’m...- rmkjr

Dan Clark Audio Aeon 2 Noire Discussion/Impressions Thread
If you’re talking space between instruments as in layer separation type of thing, my vote would be demoing a Chord Mojo 2. What it does to transients lends itself quite well to that type of separation, and it powers the Noires adequately. Gets you some bonuses too. Portable but a good desktop...- rmkjr

If you’re in the US, try asking Bloom Audio for a discount. They will occasionally send out 5-10% codes for repeat customers. Sometimes you can simply ask them for one. I used one to get my Poly.- rmkjr

Same. I figured digital is mostly digital, but then they talk of DACs. Unclear if that’s just bad marketing, or they’re optional for analog out in the case of the mini toslink. The form factors were attractive though.- rmkjr

Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
I wonder if you could swap in a super capacitor internal and in place of the battery. One that could handle the same voltage and current needs. That way you would still have the power buffer the system wants, but it wouldn't degrade from the charging cycles.- rmkjr

Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]
From what I have seen in the docs, be aware that Airplay 1 is going to play at 16/44.1 no matter what apps say or what the source file is. You can validate at least the 44.1 part with the LEDs on the Mojo. However, I'd agree, for most of the time it's more than adequate for the added...- rmkjr
