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... :)

Thanks, I guess it's ok too...

Ok, I'll follow your advices... thanks much!

I edited the post and added this The manual says: Maximum input signal >8 Vrms (ref. 0.1 THD) What do you think? Don't know which is the correct one...

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...

My amp is a NAD C326BEE..i'll investigate it :) Thanks again for your help! (I've edited the previous post a bit meanwhile)

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

Ok, so the only possible choice is to use Chord ASIO if you want true bits (and mojo doing the "magic")...

  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...

Which settings should be used in the windows sound panel to prevent any resampling when playing music (in my case JRiver)? Should it be set according to music sample rate you're playing or it doesn't matter? The highest possible option is 32 bit / 384000 Hz

Looks like Texas Instruments removed anything about the LME49990MA ... all the others opamps are still there   http://www.ti.com/lsds/ti/amplifiers/op-amps/audio-op-amps-products.page#   In the Mouser page it is considered 'obsolete' .. no idea why.  ...

    Thanks for your listening impressions. Yes, you're right, the buffer only affects RCAs. Headphone out instead uses both the I/Vs and buffer if I remember correctly. Would you consider the LME49990MAs among the best of all those you tried? I just looked at the datasheet of both 4562/6172...

Hi, I have an Essence ST with 3x LME49990MA (on dip8 adapters for a total of 6 chips) and I think they're very good sounding opamps, maybe not the best combination out there but still quite an improvement over the default ones. My headphones are the HD650s. I don't know if it's a good choice on...

I need some advices on how to get the best from my Mojo on a Windows 10 64 bit and JRiver listening setup.   1) Which bit depth and sample rate should I set in windows-audio control panel? 24 bit (44 to 384000 Hz)? Or 32 bit and which sample rate?   2) In JRiver, as output should I use Chord...

  Thanks for your reply, I wasn't sure of that, so I assume I can use the Anker cable (which is basically the same as yours) both for charging and data/audio (to use Mojo as a main DAC). Good to know! :)

My Mojo is about to arrive, meanwhile I've got an Anker PowerPort 5 and a PowerLine Micro USB (this one, 1.8m lenght https://www.anker.com/products/A8133011) for charging as suggested somewhere in this thread. Now, I would use Mojo also as a desktop DAC...how can I connect it to my desktop PC...

Thanks, but if I want to keep using my Wireworld Oasis 6, isn't enough to buy just the 3,5mm to RCA adaptor I linked before?   BTW I just placed an order for my Mojo..can't wait to hear it and hopefully it will blows my mind and ears!

Well, Hugo is a bit too much for my pockets atm that's why I would choose Mojo... so I was wondering if an adaptor like this or a similar product would be a good choice for my purpose of using it as a main DAC... https://www.amazon.co.uk/AudioQuest-Hard-Mini-3-5mm-Adaptor/dp/B003VJX2F2

Hello, I was thinking of getting Mojo as a main DAC for my system and HP amp for my HD 650s, do you think it is a good idea?   When using as a main DAC I would connect it to my amp...do I need a 3,5mm mini jack to RCA adaptor for this purpose? At the moment I'm using a Xonar Essence ST...
