Your issue is with the seller not Chord, I would argue. You have also agreed to pay in advance for a product that the seller hasn't yet got in stock.

 
have to agree... for everyone...
 
there are no production problems at Chord, full stop.... several hundred Mojo's shipped out today (fact), tomorrow several hundred more will be sent out as will happen on Friday and every day of next week..
 
I can't speak for what Dealers are telling Customers but I will give you updates if there's a problem, hth...

I can understand your frustration we a chord requested that distributor placed there purchase orders in a timely manor . Many did but not all. 

 
 
Funny you should say that. I was visiting my friend who lives in a grand old house in the UK a few weeks back. We had plans to go fly-fishing, but he had to cancel because apparently they were receiving for some unfathomable reason tons of people who wanted to place orders for something called the "MoJo". Must have been some kind of misunderstanding.

They are on different DAPs and I think the Hugo has a slightly larger soundstage.

But comparing DX90 and X5 Headphones out, I would agree with you entirely, X5 seems more upfront because of narrower width and depth. Can this come through IDENTICAL bitstreams to the Mojo?:D


I haven't listened to the headphone out on the x5..... Just via coax on the Mojo (it was my friends X5). I am not going to try to explain it.

Just in case you misunderstood my humour, I wasn't trying to say 'Identical' seriously, just having a laugh at earlier posts. We British :wink:

Received my Mojo, just now. Charging it now, no hiss/buzz so far.

Right. Just had another evening with the Mojo. This baby is amazing. Let my wife have a listen and I nearly didn't get my headphones back. I can see another one being ordered :grinning:

Catch up with you all tomorrow.

And those that haven't received yours. It is like the end of the world but trust me your day in heaven is coming soon :grinning::grinning:

I need to clarify that the unit I have is from a preproduction batch and the hiss from that unit is unusual and Chord is replacing the unit. There should be no hiss with MoJo's from the production line. If there is unusual hiss then, as John has said earlier, it should be taken back to the dealer or Chord for replacement.


No hiss so far from my first-batch Moon unit.

Zappa?

Where would an owner of an AK100 & Mojo go to get a simple (shorter preferably) optical cable to connect the two - that isn't custom made and prohibitively expensive?

But seriously, the Sys Connect cable is somewhat pricey, but worth it. They not only make it the right length, and ensure that the 90 bends are done correctly (non-trivial) but they also get the bend angle correct, as the Toslink connectors have to fit a very precise way - unlike typical TRS or TRRS or coax cables that are circular and fit no matter what angle you use. 
 
Also the guys at Sys Connect are very responsive. For example when I published my pictures earlier they proactively contacted me and wanted to make sure I was okay with the slight bend in the cable. Turns out it's actually a good thing since it helps make space for the charging port. 
 
Also they shipped super-fast. 
 
Finally their cable allows the early AK100 to play 192KHz files, which not all Toslink can handle. 
 
You pay for quality. 
 
Cheers

We just created this version of our Silver Dragon Toslink Form Fit Cable this week to solve this problem & for a tighter connection between the Mojo & the AK120 II, AK100 II, AK240 or AK380.
