    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

    In my opinion this unit shouldn't be described as portable, mine wasn't even used portably and I just own a paper weight now. **** this company.

    Get out before it's too late imo. You could end up like the prior post or worse, me (out of warranty).

    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

    How much did this end up costing you? If it's too pricy for me I'm considering selling mine for a discounted price to someone who's able to fix it themselves or has better connections than I do. I have those exact problems except my USB slot is also in a similar state.

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

    It's not even just the batteries that they're doing this for. As I explained my issues with my Mojo a few pages back (both of my 3.5mm jacks on the Mojo no longer work) it would cost me $200 to repair that. My Mojo has been sent twice before this for it's USB slot no longer working, difference...

    FLAC vs. 320 Mp3

    Yeah I've never heard of that theory for lossy.

    Opus Codec

    I am too, but I don't feel that there's a reason to go above 192 on opus in my opinion. I haven't seen any tests for 224 or 256 for it though. I think it's commonly agreed upon that those bitrates are way too high.

    Opus Codec

    There's never a clear answer on that one. Apparently it's "pretty much" transparent at 128 and is transparent from 160 -192 kbps with the exception of some killer samples, according to this page: https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=Opus Since even before the release of 1.3 (and after...

    FLAC vs. 320 Mp3

    True, but even that thread itself was last responded to more than a year ago. Maybe it's the compatibility issues still. Considering Android having a good share of the smartphone market today I would have thought that opus would have more of a lane by 2019 is all.

    I'm sorry, the 3.5mm headphone jacks on the Mojo, edited initial post for the sake of accuracy.

    FLAC vs. 320 Mp3

    How come no one talks about opus? I convert everything from FLAC to opus 192 kbps. Never have a problem. Used to have AAC 256 before I changed to Android

    To be honest, I'm with you when it comes to those repair fees on the Mojo. Both of my 3.5mm headphone inputs no longer work on my Mojo, instead of sound I get an uncomfortable high pitch frequency. I was told that it would be around $100 an hour for labor and parts since I was just outside my...

    Yes the battery is fine, the problem is the physical 3.5mm jacks .

    Haven't posted here in so long, or used my Mojo as a matter of fact. I'd like to actually start using it again but I have the same issues with the 3.5mm jacks as I did before. When plugged into any source, both of the audio jacks no longer work. It emits a high pitch ear piercing frequency at...

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

    Over time my Mojo's 3.5mm jacks have gone from bad to unusable. I would constantly have to adjust the headphone jack in order to get sound instead of a mufled and distorted feedback in the past. Now I just get an ear piercing frequency or buzzing whenever I plug anything into the Mojo when it's...

    Thank you, was suspecting as much.

    Cable design

    Would a really good headphone or earbud as is benefit from a different or "better" cable (like silver)? Or is it more to it than that like the overall design of the earbud? Thanks in advance.

    After much contemplation, I'll be keeping the Mojo as a (kinda) stationary desktop unit only with my monitors/sub and headphone amp. I used it like that 95% of the time anyway, so not much of a loss. Considering the problem with my 3.5mm jacks only happens when the device is subjected to any...

    I always looked around for more impressions on this combo but never found much. I always found it to be superb and have no urge to listen to anything else when the using the Mojo with the JBL 305s. Just recently added the matching sub for the monitors and damn is all I gotta say..

    If you ever come across information on how to replace/fix the 3.5mm slots in your travels please share that here. We have different situations but are in the same boat as far as the warranty goes.

    No issue in you asking lol, but I've never really ever gone into that realm. I used to question if they mattered but never purchased one because of how expensive they are. It's just a small piece of the chain to me and premium cables to my knowledge don't have much concrete evidence backing any...

    A healthy dose of skepticism is always a good thing so I don't think you're trying to deflect anything. And the battery situation is unfortunate, though I can't say my battery ever gave me problems. Rather for me it was the USB port not working (first repair), one of my 3.5mm slots not working...

    A year long warrenty on a device that needed to be repaired twice already (for the same thing). Two years should be minimal for something of this price, otherwise I'd be paying for half a Mojo in repairs. Maybe I'm just cynical.

    I'm satisfied with the product aside from the hiccups but the business tactics are ridiculous.
