This thread is on fire 135 pages and I'm guessing only a handful of people have the Mojo. Love it.

Let me tell you how impressed i am with the Mojo....I have the yiggy/rag combo which is absolutely extraordinary and i hate to compare anything to it because it inevitably is impossible to live up to....i listened last night to some of my favorite jazz with my Ether cans and i lost track of time and was bopping for hours lost in the music.....is it as good as the yiggy/rag combo?No ,but that is an unfair comparison but is it in the ballpark?you bet and for a portable option it is unbeatable....it is so good it forced me to buy a second 120 and velcro the 2 2 together so i could add even more music to my portable collection...for what it is worth a used 120 in good condition is a steal right now

I've got the Windows-10 app. just trying to find out if the Driver-Software can be installed to work with HD-USB... something to do with the Win-10 phone lock-down malarkey.

weirdly installing the HD-USB drivers on a Win-10 tablet isn't a problem, hth.



It says it does on the site



Yep, thats what I thought. I guess I have to get one to try it out :)


Please see the first quote.
I am using a windows phone for the last three years, WP 8.1 does not support OTG. Windows 10 for phone should have otg but still on insider preview.
There was no update from OK-Guy regarding windows phone after that quote.

Fullsize as in loudspeakers

I listen the Mojo (and Hugo) as preamp/DAC on mid field high precision monitors and subwoofer (28 to 20 KHz at +/- 2 dB).

For several months, I used the Hugo on my main system as fixed Preamp/dac.

I purchase the Hugo for mobility (IEM and small near field monitors).

For my taste, these DACs are among the best DAC listened whatever the price.

I'm curious as to why AK100/AK120 is being favoured as a partner for the Mojo, when there are cheaper options like DX50/DX90, X5, Soundaware Esther, etc.
 
Maybe it's because the dark brushed aluminium casework of the Mk1 AKs matches the Mojo well?


I have the AK100II and the DX90 and having tried them both, prefer the DX90. I have yet to try the DX50.

Aahhh…

It has to pass my desktop-size comparison first before it moves up to Yggy and full-size speakers. Next week then!

I've been thinking the same thing for a long time. I assumed that getting a TOTL mini-USB to USB was a waste of time because they all just get plugged into the CCK, which is not an audiophile product. Having said that, I have noticed a difference between different mini-USB - USB cables that get plugged into the CCK. I have one from Moon Audio and one from ALO and they sound a bit different to my ears.

More pertinently, the Apple CCK is not unavoidable. I have a short interconnect from Lavricables that connects an iPhone to my Hugo (I assume same for Mojo) or to my ALO CDM. Not only does it remove the need for the messy CCK / USB cable combo; it also sounds better to my ears.

I forget how to insert pics, but if you Google it or check eBay, it's the little 3" red interconnect that is pictured connecting an iPhone to a Hugo.

PS: I have no affiliation except as a customer and I prefer the sound of Konstantins' interconnect to any of the USB > CCK combos that I've tried (I may have got lucky with IEM synergy, YMMV etc).


Great tip but currently the only one available on eBay is $1,059.00. I hope you did not pay that :)

Edit: do you know how to contact Lavricable?
