The laser printed number is not the serial number, at least on mine. The sticker on the bottom has a different number listed as the serial number.

The build quality is excellent! I have used it for portable and at home use and it held up great. The sound quality is great too. It sounds different from the stock cable.

I haven't updated the list after July 08. But I am unaware of any recent released DAPs, that can do Optical out, that I would categorize as Small. Your best bet would be AK100 or AK120.

I would always want to put Mojo in a case anyway. The official case is excellent. I would stop fretting and enjoy how the Mojo sounds.

My brain needs help! I am stuck in an EDM 'loop'! It's like groundhog day. pmsl. I cannot seem to listen to all the superb easy listening vocal stuff and Jazz at the moment.
Any tips on rebooting myself? I totally blame Mojo and Noble for the predicament I find myself in...

Maybe you could visualise the energy in your body and pretend it represents Mojos sample rate indications!

I am going to put together a DIY cable to feed the signal from one of the 3.5mm Chord Mojo headphone outputs into the two RCAs of a Samson S-convert bump box (which in turn feeds a power amplifier).
Essentially then this is a Y-splitter cable; a 3.5mm stereo jack into two RCAs. I am going to use some Sommer SC-Peacock MKII cable for this.
My question is about which end I should attach the floating shield braid; the 3.5mm end or at the RCA ends.
Normally, I would attach floating shield braiding at the source end, So, in this case it would be the 3.5mm connector which plugs into the Mojo.
But, it occurred to me that I run the Mojo on its battery power. I don’t have it connected to a power supply during playback. The Samson S-convert bump box on the other hand is mains powered.
So, it crossed my mind that maybe it would be advantageous to attach the floating shield braiding in the two RCA connectors rather than the 3.5mm – this on the basis the bump box is mains powered whereas the Mojo is not.
I’d be very grateful for any guidance on the best way forward.

Got a bit bored this morning at work, so done a really rough mock up of what I'd want a mojo module to be. sorry for the rubbish pictures - I'm no artist as you may well guess.
Basic concept is a wrap around module.
The button on the left hand side of the top right picture is basically a sliding mechanism so that the left hand side can extend to enable insertion of the Mojo and then slide back into place.
On the right hand side of the top right picture is a micro sd card slot
Left picture has screen, wheel and few buttons, with Mojo balls exposed (!).
Bottom right picture shows cut outs for access to headphone outs.
The end I haven't drawn would be a pass through of current inputs.
Functionality wise, the Shanling M1 is a good bench mark for what I'm after.
EDIT: I've just realised I've got my ball positions wrong in the pictures! The left hand side of the pictures are meant to be the headphone outputs and the right the inputs, but hopefully this doesn't distract from the concept I had in mind.
