[Mojo ideas]

This would be interesting to learn the answer.  
If you contact Chord with a response, can you let us know?

when the Mojo is being used and being charged especially when driving lower impedances there is a net drain on the battery. This means that the charging circuit does not quite provide enough power to power the Dac and amp circuitry and keep charge the battery at the same level this is because we had to limit the amount of charge over a given time due to thermal constraints. Our charging time with the Mojo switched off is usually four or max five hours this is a little inconvenient but when we compare this to other Dac amps that need up to a full twenty four hours to charge we feel that we didn't do such a bad job.

Hello I am a new mojo owner.

I use it with a B&W P7, and are relative happy with the sound, but I am considering trying a Fostex th600, I like a relaxed full sound will it be good match, or is there any other recommendations?

Kind regards Morten

 

[Mojo ideas]

First Impressions:

The Chord Mojo has given me that "wow" effect; that is, the quality is surprisingly high. 

Although it has to charge for 10 hours, I could not help but sneak a listen.  

Macbook Pro:  iTunes 

Beatles:  "Two of Us" from "Let It Be:  Naked", from CD 320 mp3.  

Bob Dylan:  Working Man Blues #2 from "Modern Times"

I chose these two to do a quick listen because I am familiar with both and both have distinctions that could stand out for me. 

"Two of Us":  the acoustic guitars were stunningly clear.  The vocals, in particular, were "in the middle" of space, clear.  

"Working Man Blues #2" sounded as if Dylan was sitting in my living room, a few feet away, with no background noise other than the vocal, which was clear and very upfront; more than I have ever heard before.  

From iPhone 6, I listened to Alison Kraus' "Baby, Now That I've Found You" from her live album where her high vocals were clearer than I've ever heard before. 

After charging, I will listen to London Philharmonic for instrument separation and Stevie Wonder for bass.  

As to volume:  from the Macbook Pro and the iPhone, the T1.2 (600 ohm) were driven to a level uncomfortably loud for me!  The power of this little thing is amazing.  

For me, the hype in the reviews here have been accurate.  

You shouldn't be too surprised as the amount electronics i.e the processing power that Mojo has is about five hundred times what a normal industry chip Dac design contains. So it should be a very high level performance.

Not sure, so you'd need to do a bit of your own research before considering buying one.
 
Also, there are several different Experias, so I'm not suggesting Z3 is the only worthy one for you to consider

I love Workingman's Blues no.2! (no hash key on my mac! baffling!) I rarely hear it mentioned so this was great to read, especially how it sounds to you on the Mojo!
I haven't heard that Alison Krauss album, but I loved her duet album with Robert Plant, especially "Sister Rosetta Goes Before Us" and "Killing the Blues". Crazy bass on that album though!

 

[x RELIC x]

The Mojo's line out "mode" is nothing more than a shortcut to 3V. After setting it to the 3V shortcut you can change the output at will. If you want approximately the standard 2V output then just click the volume down 4 times from the line out shortcut.

The Mojo's analogue section is not like your typical opamp amplifier in most devices, but rather a discrete analogue stage that can't be bypassed, and is very transparent. Essentially the Mojo is always a variable line out. Again, holding the buttons down during power on is just a shortcut to 3V.

I know from personal experience that Mojo really likes Alison Krauss

I don't have the vocabulary to do the Mojo justice for what it does for the music library I've heard for 40 years.

yes it can with authority, but i am a basshead so i add an extra amp with bass boost which is the alo mk 3B, but really sometimes i feel i do not need that extra amp
