Hi anymore can help? Let say the DAP only has 3.5mm jack output, how to you connected into mojo?

What's type of adapter should I use for
Thanks


What DAP? You need a digital coaxial output from the 3.5mm jack.

Such as Cowon Plenue D

Found here

But using the 3.5mm stereo cable via coaxial will work.


It looks like the Cowon Plenue D does not output digital audio so you can't use it with the Mojo which only accepts a Digital Input.

Compatible DAPs for Mojo:

Mojo is a Digital to Analogue Converter equipment. It takes in a digital signal, converts it into an analog signal and outputs the analog signal via the Headphone Out. The DAP being paired with the Mojo as a transport/source, must be capable of feeding a digital signal into the Mojo. Some DAPs do NOT have the capability to send/output a Digital Signal. Below is a list of popular DAPs on Head-Fi. I have broken down into which DAPs can and cannot be used for Mojo.

Anyone tried the top AK players (AK240 or above, particularly if any one has the AK380Cu that's even better) with the Mojo? 
 
Will the addition of Mojo improve on the already very good sound quality, or deteriorates it?
 
Is there any suggestion for a high end, but short, optical cable? 
 
Cheers,
Louis
