    Are you planning to be at the Bristol HiFi Show over the weekend giving a digital master class?

    CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE

    Thank you for your reply.  My experience is that products that change the tempo don't have great timing, making the music drag or gobble.  I will wait until my demo of DAVE Dac before I comment any more.

    I have sold my Hugo as the Mojo is a lot more musical. The Hugo design is over 2 years old

    CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE

        I'm planning to demo the DAVE dac shortly, but your comments about tempo worry me grateful.  Products that change the tempo of any music are usually bad new.  What is the rest of your system?

    CHORD ELECTRONICS DAVE

    I had an email from Colin at Chord to saying  "Currently our DAVE manual is in some Mac publisher format, it is a sizeable 18mb! Our guy who sorts these things is back in the office tomorrow so will be sorting a web version as soon as possible."

        The TotalDAC is more musically than the Mojo (IMHO), but doesn't have as much detail, so it might cost him a bottle of bolly

    Fighting talk on the DAVE forumn   That depends on how one defines best - if best is defined as transparency and musicality then Dave will win easily. I am prepared to bet a brand new Dave against a bottle of Bollinger that Dave will win.   In fact that's way too easy a proposition. I...

    Love the Mojo and after selling my Hugo need a replacement for the HiFi.  Is there a user manual for the DAVE yet?

    Has any body tried the new Pioneer XDP-100R the world's first MQA-ready HRA music player with Mojo?

    Works even better with the HD650s.  Don't like the Nighthawks with the Mojo.. not musical enough, IMHO.

    I have found that if I use more than one  headphone at a time it changes the sound slightly, so IMHO not a good/reliable way to compare headphones.

    I think the bluetooth is going to be a separate accessory.

    Just been on a flight and the people in front of me were talking about the Mojo and the accessories that are coming out.  They discussed the SD module which allows you to plug in an SD card and play music in any format. It has 3 buttons at the end for play/pause, back and forward and is powered...

    I disagree.  Mojo is more musical and less clinical that Hugo.  Hugo is an old design now and things have moved on.

    I have been trying a number of headphones over the last week and did notice a change in the high frequency that might be caused by the roll off that you mentioned.  I'm very happy with the sound, but am some what confused when Mr Watts say there is a roll off with low impedance headphone by...

    The battery might have a shelf life of 10 years, but in normal use it will need replacing before then. I think that the Mojo is a plug and socket replacement.  It's likely that it will be be replaced with a new battery technology  within a couple of years, probably Lithium Sulphur (Li-S) which...

    I wouldn't, I think that the Mojo is more musical that the Hugo and the TT.  I would spend it on better cans (Abyss) and more music.

      Yes I have heard and auditioned the 2Qute and the Mojo is better in all areas.  I think that you find the Mojo more musically satisfying that the DAC V1.  Forget the price difference, just listen to the music and enjoy.

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

    I think the Mojo is better than the Chord 2Qute by quite a large margin in all areas, and it looks nicer too.

    I have the Mojo running into my home system via a pre amplifier and it sound greats and IMHO better than my Hugo, which I have now sold

    Those tactile dome switches are good for at least 10,000,000 presses

    Is this true " At the press reception Rob told me its digital architecture, and especially the use of a 1000-tap digital filter, allow almost compete elimination of digital noise, which has a repetitive pattern upsetting to the ear." ?

    Yes the Mojo is very good and far better than my Hugo which is only 3 months old.  I do wish Chord would upgrade it with a PCB swap, but I have been told that there will not be an upgrade or Hugo 2 and hence I'm going to sell my Hugo and get what I can before all the World hears about Mojo.

    Apology -   lithium polymer (LP)  battery is strictly called a lithium-ion polymer battery - it is the best to use in this application.  There are lots of other lithium batteries including:   lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO) lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4), lithium manganese oxide (LMO)...

    There were some comments about lithium polymer (LP) batteries on here a few days ago. The life of an LP is totally controlled/limited by the charging and monitoring electronics.  If done well you might get 5 years of life, but this will still be largely governed by the number and type...
