    Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

    After reducing my mojo to a paper weight and replacing it with better powered solution. I'm kind of hoping the chord would issue an apology for engineering such a monstrously flawed product, over hyped with the technobabble that people like me brought. (sadly i still want to listen to it)...

    Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

    for me personally after going through a ton of brainstorming with its 24/7 battery usage, i've had to change my behavior with it. I unplug it to check its battery status light, i've had to think of ways of turning it off more, in hindsight chord mojo is a step forward but an experiment...

    Thanks for continuing the talk about 24/7 Dac use, battery etc Its very annoying being told by Chord that Mojo is good to be used 24/7 and having people who know about the battery more say, it will die and being on the 2nd mojo myself having it happen again. P.S 1) Bleeding: im still...
