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

    Does the mojo remembers also the 4 clicks down (1.9V) in line out mode when I turn it off then on again? I don't need every time I turn it on to redo the 4 clicks down, is that correct?

    I would like to try optical instead of USB on my Mojo (connected to an amp, using it as desktop DAC); for that purpose, is it ok to connect the toslink cable to the optical (toslink) out on the motherboard then ==> Mojo optical? Will be there a difference in sound from USB? What I want to know...

    Does a good optical (toslink) cable will make any difference to the sound quality? Let's say up to 100 euro. Btw there are plenty of optical cables on Amazon to choose from for example but they are all cheap... what would be the right choice (price wise) to use with a Mojo?

    Does the Mojo sound better through optical (toslink) than USB? I use the Mojo only as a desktop DAC via USB; in case of an optical connection should I connect the toslink cable to the optical S/PDIF (toslink) out of my Asus motherboard? Does that bypass the onboard DAC when I play my music files?

    Thanks for the information, I'll keep it 2V (1.9V) from now on, the volume is just perfect with a little adjustement from the amp knob and the clarity and overall musicality of this little thing amazes me every time... :)

    Here https://nadelectronics.com/product/c-326-stereo-integrated-amplifier/ it says under the "Line level input, Pre-out" tab, 2V in 2V out. Does that mean that I have to set mojo line level to 1.9V (4 clicks vol. down from the 3V output)? What could happen if I keep it at 3V even if the amp...

    Thanks for your reply. So far I've always used the volume balls when in 3V output, sometimes above, sometimes below the fixed 3V output (is this wrong to do?). I've read somewhere that controlling the volume directly from the mojo is much better - quality wise - than any digital volume control...

    I need to know one thing as I don't want to destroy my mojo: when I turn the unit on in 3V line level mode (I also use it as a desktop dac connected to an integrated amp), can I then control the volume from the mojo itself just like its normal use with headphones? What I didn't get, if once the...

    Hello, under the product registration on Chord's website, the "Country of Purchase:" refers to where I bought the product from (online from Custom-Cable so UK) or my country at the moment of the purchase (Italy)? Sorry for the (maybe) stupid question but this confuses me a bit. Thanks

      Yes, exactly ("You don't want Windows re-sampling at all"), in fact it has also been stated several times that mojo's own filters are much better and accurate so I just wanted to be sure.     I saw that with Chord ASIO mojo always outputs to 32 bit (whether if you're playing 16 or 24...
