Maybe but 2, 3 or 5 times the price?!?

I'd argue the Mojo is the more versatile device. Can be paired with lots of humble devices, in my case. CD or Dvd player an old ipod (via dock), TV and phone and give first class sound quality for headphones or even as part of a Hifi system?

When the module is available the Mojo should be able to perform the mobile duties of the High End Players I would have thought

 
I definitely agree that some (I'm looking at you AK) are very overpriced for what they are.
 
Versatility has little to do with the BOM, tool licensing, or design and verification engineering hours though.
 
I don't know anything about the SD module, so I won't comment on it... It could be possible that it will turn the Mojo into a baby-DAP that would outperform some or many players. It remains to be seen.

  Also the Mojo is a DAC/Amp so is 2/3 of the system just add sauce source!!

 
A) They're not legos... you don't just connect them together and you're done.
B) A DAP consists of many, many more than 3 subsystems.

Does anyone receive orders from Dyson Audio recently?

No, the Mojo, and all Chord DACs, are single ended. There is no benefit to plugging the separate headphone jacks to your stereo. Even the RCA output measures better, except for Voltage output, than the XLR output (which is derived from the SE out) in the Hugo TT and DAVE.

As for your connection to the phone, you are likely hearing cellular interference and/or a loose connection with the USB cable in the Mojo input. Unfortunately this loose connection can happen with some USB connectors.

As for charging, yes, you would connect to both the USB ports to charge and listen at the same time. The fact that it takes a long time to charge is not surprising as PC USB ports are not high current ports, especially when you are drawing power while listening. Try using a sperate 2A 5V USB charger plugged into the wall instead. Often times manufacturers may overstate their charger specs, so even though the charger is rated at 1A output they may not quite deliver that amount of current.

 
Thanks for clarifying the misconception. I will try to play the music putting my phone into Airplane mode and see the results, cables, on the other hand, are brand new to be regarded as loose.
 
I do have a Samsung Note 3 charger that is 2A, I was afraid to rapid charge Mojo and ruin the battery, was using Samsung S3 charger LOL 
 
How could the battery be so good on this device? Any specification? I want to buy a replacement for the future I am so happy to revisit my music from decades ago.
 
I think I would go out buy the Hugo soon, someone please stop me. This is what happens to me all the time. 
 
Rob could have designed a quarter inch jack port, my adapter is about 5 inches long.
 

 
I think it was strongly advised to get as a flexible adapter. I have the Grado Mini Adapter Cable for example. Thus not to put pressure on the Mojo ports.

I started out using the VOOC rapic charger from my OPPO HA2, but I think Rob Watts posted about the risks of using chargers which greatly exceed 5V. So I reverted to using the standard samsung charger that came with my Note 3 (I had to change the USB 3 lead, but that was all), and I have experienced no problems.
 
I also use the Grado flexible adaptor cable to connect my headphones, and that works well.

Just got a HTC desire 610... And just bummed... It doesn't have USB audio.... And it's thr only reason I got it for the transport as mojo.

Anyone know an affordable used phone I can get solely for UAPP and Tidal for mojo

I use a Z5c as my actual phone and as a transport for the Mojo. It's super cheap.

Thanks but I'm looking for something I can buy used under 50$, anyone got any ideas?

Moto G 1st gen?

 

[harpo1]

  Does anyone receive orders from Dyson Audio recently?

If you order from him just forget about it coming and be happily surprised when it shows up.  Don't try and contact him because 95% of the time he won't reply.  It's a crap shoot with him.  I recommend any future cable purchases be made elsewhere.  The guy just has horrible communication skills.

Thanks I appreciate it, anyone else have any other idea?

Nah, I think he's just told us how much he spends on food in a month...

Quick question re: coaxials. For hooking up a Mojo to a Bluesound Node 2, am I right in thinking that this:
 

1. http://www.audiosanctuary.co.uk/custom-cable-cc35-3.5mm-coaxial-cable.html

 
...with a 3.5mm jack one end and an RCA the other would be what I'm after? I emailed Audio Sanctuary earlier today, but they never got back to me.
 
The Node 2 has what I'd consider to be a 'normal' coaxial output – but I guess there are lots of types out there that I don't know about! Here's a pic of its connections:
 

 
Thanks in advance!

That's an analogue cable for connecting the DAC to output to am amplifier not a digital input which I believe you are looking for?

Does it have an optical out?

Optical cables are as cheap as chips
