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

What dap do you use with this set up?

I have just purchased my first one and it is a Shanling M0. I find the combo excellent.

 

[gazzington]

Ha, the same as me! I'm going to use an m0 too

What case have you got for your mojo? The official one is quite pricey!

I would like to try optical instead of USB on my Mojo (connected to an amp, using it as desktop DAC); for that purpose, is it ok to connect the toslink cable to the optical (toslink) out on the motherboard then ==> Mojo optical? Will be there a difference in sound from USB?

What I want to know though, if it is right to connect to the optical out of the motherboard (then to mojo of course) in order to playing my flac files from my PC.

Yes, you should try that especially if you’re using it out of a desktop pc which is rather noisy.

My prediction - Mojo 2 coming soon!:

there may be another little surprise from Rob and Myself coming along sometime soon and But I really mean little like, kinda smallish but rather special!

I hope so! Since JF said this is a project him and Rob have been working on it makes me think it’s probably not 2Go since JF has that all figured out..

My prediction - Mojo 2 coming soon!:

So, what would be new? Double the taps (same effective tap length as Hugo?) and/or more power output? Form factor should be the same so it continues to work with Poly.

I’m thinking an extra button to control filter options and improvements in RFI rejection from the USB input, along with other refinements to the sound quality.

But that’s if he’s talking about Mojo 2, a big If.

I’m personally taking the whole thing with a huge grain of salt because I don’t wanna get my hopes up but eventually there will be a Mojo 2, the question is when?

I'll bet sooner than you think. You don't want to rush past a winner, but you also don't want to rest on past success too long either. The next Mojo will like Hugo2 have Bluetooth of course. Ultimately that is why I ended up moving past the Mojo which I really, really liked, no Bluetooth and while I understand the Poly brings more than just Bluetooth, there was no way I would spend that much cash for what in my case was just simply a need to stream. Anyway, I'm excited at the prospect of a Mojo2 and I can't help but think it will happen within a year, but obviously I have no firsthand knowledge at all, just quasi educated guessing.

Hi.

How can i use the mojo with an amp/recieveer? Like the liquid carbon sdac massdrop or pioneer lx81?

My prediction - Mojo 2 coming soon!:

I doubt it, because you would need the next generation of more power efficient fpga to be available.
I could visualise a Mojo 1.1 iteration, using the Hugo 2 battery management code, to cure the problems some Mojo owners have had with failing batteries.
More likely the 2Go.

 

[gazzington]

How long should I charge my new mojo for? Is the white light supposed to flash on and off while charging?

 

[STR-1]

More likely the 2Go.

I understand Rob Watts has had no involvement with 2Go, so must be something else.

Welcome to the Mojo club.
As a newby, it is a good idea to read the FAQ in post #3, because there is a lot of useful help in there.
The flashing white light means that your charger is not supplying enough current.
