Pressing + 41 times after high gain lands you at 3v output (last violet). I found this might be a bit "hot" for some amps, with 2v (indigo) being more in line with what some amps expect to see in terms of input voltage. So do try both.

I agree that LOWN doesnt go to max volume, instead maxes out at the set volume. This isnt a so scary when youre listening to compressed/loudness-mixed music, but most classical music is mixed way down to keep all the range and than some. Just to make sure, is using coax/optical immune to this...

My understandig is that Rob designed the whole thing, thats why I tagged him. Might have come across as complaing, but really, probably like others who are experiencing this, I would just like a definite answer (preferably from the designer) on what is causing this and weather there is a...

This LOWN (loud white noise) issue is really bothering me and I'm reluctant to do any headphone listening because of it. Rather hard to relax into music with a persistant fear of headphones going bang at any random moment. I would sure like a definitive solution to this from Chord ( @Rob Watts ).

One more thing about the output voltage when coupled to an amp. Is 3V really always the best way to go? I don't think I'm imagining it, but i think the sound is clearer and background darker when I set it to ca. 2V and up the gain on the amp. Of course it sounds better still with mojo driving...

Oh, one more here on the loud white noise wagon. Has happened 3 or so times in the last month. Luckily I was using it as a dac to drive the speakers. First i had it coupled to the amp and i thought the amp got fried. Lately I'm driving passive speakers directly with the mojo2, and it happened 2...

Guys was there ever a published chart that correlates output voltages from mojo2 with volume "colors". I've just ordered Pass AmpCamp, that can take no more than 1.6V before clipping, would like to try Mojo in the dac/pre duty with it.

Beautiful! :) I think Chord should charge you extra money, you are getting so much value:) Keep us posted! Only thing that could be worse maybe is due to wireless connection of the poly, many users reported hardline (ethernet) improoved sq over using wifi with pi2aes, but poly is a different thing.

We shall see, I will be testing all inputs coax, optical and usb to mojo, and report here. Supposedly, there should be an improvment across the board, with suppressed noise playing from an even blacker background, aiding in all the finer things in music like depth perception, instrument...

My mind is blown! Got a little 3.5 to terminal adapter and connected the Fostex horns via Belden 9497 16awg wire. Wowza! Skipping a dedicated amp (admitedly not the last word in hifi) completely changed the speakers. Now I can appreciate why people like these things so much. The background is...

Thanks Rob! Awesome little speakers! Are you driving them directly with a mojo1/2?

To use mojo2 directly with sensitive and easy to drive fullrangers (Fostex 8" in a back loaded horn enclosure), would you expect to hear an appreciable difference in "desktop mode" with a LPSU as compared to a simple decent SMPS (i.e. Mean Well)? Provided mojo is fed by a well insulated streamer...

Never thought of it this way, very interesting. That also makes sense why many Pi2aes users including its designer say that a decent SMPS will be as good (sometimes better) than a budget LPSU. Probably very expensive ones do the job well enough on their own, but the price is way out of...

Excellent, I'm looking forward to your reports! I have a pi2aes that i plan to use as a (wired-eth) transport via coax to mojo, but really wonder how much worse a wireless poly can be compared to it.

Very good post, though there was a another user quite happy driving his harbeth 30.1 (85db) with a hugo, which as much as I can gather from specs, doesnt have a whole more power than a mojo? For nearfield and moderate volume it might just work ok. But to me, this direct path only makes sense if...
