Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆
Feb 17, 2017 at 9:53 AM Post #30,376 of 42,765
Just wondering if nyone can help me.

I got my chord mojo this morning, when I turn it on, the 3 lights come on then the power button light turns off but the volume up down button lights stay on.

Is that normal?

Also It has been on charge all day 7 hours so far, I've been charging it why its turned off, when I got home from work just now, I noticed the little light below the charge port wasn't on, when i turned my mojo on it turned blue, did my mojo stop charging at some point? Shouldn't that little light stay on all the way till it turns green? (I think green is the colour indicating it's fully charged)

Is all that normal?
No blue indicates full charge 100 percent green is 90 to 50 percent

  I took a quick look through the FAQ post, but I didn't see anyone mention a USB-C to Micro cable. I'm looking for 3-4" version and a 12" version of that type of cable. If anyone knows where, I'd be very thankful. I've checked Amazon, and those are mostly 3' and longer.

I purchased both of these to connect my Shanling M1 to the Mojo and they worked fine.

Thanks! Was hoping to get something local from Amazon or similar. Last time I ordered from China... it took over 3-4 weeks to get to me.

I ordered on November 8. They were shipped on November 9 and arrived at US Customs in Chicago on November 12. Cleared customs and received by US Postal Service on November 14. Delivered to me on November 17. Fairly fast for free shipping from Hong Kong. Tracking number was provided and I was able to track it using USPS.com.
 
I could never find short ones in the US. I guess the big unknown is how long thing may sit in US Customs. I have had some items take as long as a week, but thought that 9 days was pretty good for these.

Using mojo since March'16.
Now using it with Sony MDR Z1R and the pair is too good. I don't feel the need to use any amp or other DAC as it sounds too good and satisfactory to me. Only the free balanced Kimber kable that I got with this HP tempts me to look for some balanced amp otherwise a great synergy between Mojo and Z1R

Penon Audio has a 10cm solid silver otg cable for $30. It took 10 days to get it from China to California.

  I don't know if anyone post this already. Anyway I do a test for different combination of iOS 10.3 beta iPhone and cable with Mojo.
 
iPhone 5: iOS 10.3 Beta 2
iPhone 5s: iOS 10.3 Beta 2
 
using different cable to connect to mojo
 
1. iPhone 5 -> Apple CCK -> usb cable/mojo adapter module -> mojo : working fine
2. iPhone 5 -> Apple CCK USB3 -> usb cable -> mojo : working fine
3. iPhone 5 -> Fiio L19 Cable -> mojo : working fine
 
4. iPhone 5s -> Apple CCK -> usb cable/mojo adapter module -> mojo : not working, no light
5. iPhone 5s -> Apple CCK USB3 -> usb cable -> mojo : working fine
6. iPhone 5s -> Fiio L19 Cable -> mojo : working fine
 
I think currently the connection issue comes from Apple CCK (old model).
If you only have iPhone 5s with Apple CCK, you might want to consider using another cable or not to upgrade to iOS 10.3 beta.
 
My iPhone 6s is still on iOS 10.2.1. I might try this test on my 6s once 10.3 beta 3 is out.


FYI, my 6S+ does not work with CCK or Lavricable on iOS 10.3 Beta 2. Please read the "read-me" carefully for iOS 10.3 Betas as so far they have both clearly stated that the cables may not work correctly with the Beta. Which was great when I found that info' AFTER I had installed the Beta. LOL

  ...Does anyone else stroke their Mojo like a cat?
 

 
My cat would get jealous if I gave that amount of affection to my Mojo.
Plus i would get worried if my Mojo started purring, when playing music.

I think I may pet it because I miss my old cats. (Cats are the best! mreoww)
 
Look what I found!

When my cat named Mo Jo (really) is enjoying my Mojo as much as I am.

I love to rub the balls of my Mojo very much while listening to my favorite music with a cup of hot tea, ah!
