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

[audi0nick128]

I think a lot of people would be pleasantly surprised at using this tiny device in a fullsize 2ch hi-fi set-up.   IMO, headphones don't serve the spatial talents of Rob's DACs to their full potential.

Being marketed specifically towards headphone fans may lead to Mojo being overlooked as a serious potential DAC in a fullsize system

Well it may also leave room for a slightly different speced Mojo TT...

.... I ordered Mojo............ It's time to sell my liver! Any takers?


I will use Mojo mainly with Sony NW-X100 + ACS Encore Studio.


I will test it with HD800S, HD700, Philips L2, Musical Fidelity M100.


 

So liver heh? Guess the kidney(s) are long gone... possibly for the HD800Ss

That would be awesome. Mojo with full size I/O and a mains power supply, isolated via battery...

If such a device were to exist it would have to fall in between the Hugo and HugoTT. But in all honesty if they could produce a more cost effective version of dave that would be great as well!

Okay, I've had the Mojo for a few days now and am fully immersed in my 
music via my Fiio X3 2nd gen via moon-audio mini coax to the mojo and listening 
right now on my SE846.  Very pleased with this setup but a bit disappointed that
I'm not getting the sample rate out of the fiio's coax that I though I would.  DSD audio out of fiio
is only giving me a sample rate of 88khz as identified by the mojo color ball.
 
The sound is lush, full and immersive.
 
Anyone know a transport that would allow me to get more sample rate to the mojo and why is 
it restricted out of the Fiio to 88khz?
 
Thanks in advance.
 
I am not dissappointed in the Mojo....USB out of my MAC via Jriver....bitperfect!!! and I do get the DSD white ball on the mojo there.
 
Mojo is something special!

Do you hear any hiss with the SE846? I don't with mine.

You need to set the SPDIF Output on the X3II to DOP.  By default it's set to D2P.  The mojo only accepts DOP.

No hiss whatsoever - black.  Really loving the SE846 with the balanced filter- haven't had a desire to switch the filter.
 
Maybe some day, I'll play with rolling filters.

How does one "set the SPDIF Output on the X3II to DOP"?

It's in the systems settings menu on the X3II.

I have the latest fw on it but not seeing this option.

 

[harpo1]

You need the 1.45beta firmware.

 

[Drumonron]

maybe I have to go backwards with the firmware from 1.6 to 1.44 for this?  I mean 1.4....will go backwards...totally worth it.
 
Thanks Harpo1!
