    Using Chord Mojo as standalone?

    Great advise, I just had the battery replaced on mine. I'm going to try a mains timer that auto turns off the charger for a few hours every day when I leave it plugged in.

    Thanks Rob for taking time to inform us. Wish the mojo worked this way. Looking forward to trying the Hugo 2!

    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

    While that may true, apple solved this problem years ago by letting the charging circuit manage this. It stops charging the battery if its full charge, lets it run down a bit, then charges again. Its disappointing that chord does not address this on the mojo, I consider this to be a design...

    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

    I have had the same problem twice, had the mojo replaced by dealer the first time and it has happened again. I use mojo in a desktop setup that is always on. Contacted chord they suggested maybe the battery gets damaged if left on all the time. Both of my mojo units lasted about 5 months...

    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

      When the power light goes out and the volume lights are on, it usually means theres no input detected, in your case the USB. Try another PC, but it does sound like the USB input has failed.   I just got my 2nd mojo replaced with a new one under warranty.

    I left it off for several hours, then plugged it in to charge for 2 days - still nothing. It does make a low whining sound when plugged in for a while then stops. Will return it. Thanks for all your help!

    Thanks! I tried charging mojo for an entire day today, but still the same. While turned off, the charging light comes on for 5 seconds then turns off, then doesn't charge at all after about 20 hours. Looks like I need to return another mojo to my dealer.

    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

    I have a problem with mine I can't work out. I'm on my 2nd replacement mojo, had it for 5 months now. I use an iPad charger and when I turn it off and plug in to charge, the white charging light comes on and goes off after about 5 seconds. The battery is depleted because when I try turn it on...

    Are CD's recorded using WAV, AIFF, or neither?

    Quote: Originally Posted by davidhunternyc Thanks for the response. It seems to me that if PCM is used on a CD and it is digital, than why can't we burn those CD's using the same PCM? . You are, PCM is inside the AIFF format you are using. As it can be in a WAV file. Quote...

    I've gone from zero to off the deep end in less than a week.

    Thanks for those impressions. How do you feel about your speaker setup now compared to the headphones you have? What's more enjoyable? Do the headphones sound better or worse?

    Great review Sky. The Corda Move indeed is a great little amp. I can't say too much on how it sounds compared with others with as much authority as you, but it does sound good to these ears. There is definately enough detail there too with the AD8610.

    Received my Move yesterday. Shipping took 10 days to Australia. It looks great, feels solid and it sounds good too For those in AU interested in a power adaptor for it, there is a suitable multi-voltage adaptor with the right size plug at DSE (Model M9927).
