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

[GreenBow]

  That's not a bad idea regarding the old Sennheisers, they've been transformed into usefulness by the Xduoo X3 so maybe the Mojo take them a step further.
 
Those Wharfedales look like the kind of thing I need. Either that or pick up some used active studio monitors like JBL's.
 
Cables...oh boy!
 
Gotcha.  I'll be open to spending on cables at some point but there's a way to travel first...

I don't know why. Whatever we post, someone always argues with the best free advice money can buy. Why don't you read my post before you argue @waveSounds
 
I said I spent £100 on cables. I recommended a lower cable budget for yourself @mixloyd. Trust me, it will be worth it. (People generally buy whatever fits in with what they think they should spend on cables.) I bought the QED Reference Audio J2P for mine, and I love it. I would never let it go for love or money.

As an aside, going back to the original reason I popped by, am currently testing an alpha build of a soon to be new to market android music app...

Buggy as hell at the moment, so the developer doesn't want it to go out to general consumers in its current state, but, let's just say that this will rattle a few cages of the established app developers, it has done crazy things to the mojo, and has me genuinely excited...

(oops, breach of NDA, this bit edited out)

Such clean SQ, as and when the NDA is lifted, I'll reveal more

Your recommendation is saved in my notes, I'll deal with cables after the speakers but will have the cash to do it properly. Actually given that there are a bunch of used active monitors half price on eBay I think I'll be getting the speakers first of all, cans and mojo to follow later.

Please tell me it doesn't tamper with the bitstream...               No EQ, spatialiser, DSP, upsampling, etc.

sorry, needed to edit your post, you'll see the edit...

And, to answer your question, no, not from what I've seen, and that is the beauty of it, it's crazy simplicity... Funny what happens when you go back to basics

Duncan Damn bro, why you gotta tease us like that? Does it have parametric eq?

not in its current iteration, and being a UAPP fanboy, I'm all over parametric EQ like a fat kid is cake, but the dev is against it as it goes against the ethos of the player...

From my exposure, if it helps, the SQ (into mojo) is like a standard DAP versus a QP1R, so crazily clean, crisp, powerful... These are my words, and my words alone, it, to me, makes the mojo sound more Hugo esque, such clarity, and an insanely clean and airy top end...

I have placed my order on the 3rd of August and had only received my cable today. I had to send a chaser email and shortly after, received a email about cable being shipped. Not sure what happend but throughout there was not conversation.

 
Consider yourself lucky!
I have placed my order on Aug. 3 as well, but never got any response from them since.  I have tried to contact via e-mail and TXT messages. Radio silence!

So bugs aside, the SQ is a nice improvement over UAPP?
 
Will it stream Tidal?

Ok here's a stab in the dark: it's digital noise reduction to clean up the usb out.

Mojo/X3 VS Mojo/N6





Same tracks, same iem, same inter connector but they sound different. With N6 more bass and vocals more up front.

Can someone please recommend  an android phone with not more than 5'' screen; which also has a micro sd card slot with otg capability so i can hook up my mojo . My main phone is the galaxy s7 which i use for work but i can't afford to use it with  the mojo since i'm constantly  replying to emails and calls. I know you can hook up a dap but i like the big touch screen of a cell phone, easy navigation etc.. and the fact that i can still use tidal with UAPP .
