I frequent the forums daily, I have strong resistance to temptation on products, but this one has me under the thumb.
 
Must. own. Mojo.

Wecome to the club! seen you around meant threads,
i expect the mojo will make you made more cheap DAPs with USB out.
don't worry, there's always budget android phones

Well, I'm not in the club yet, but very soon 'I think' 

 
 
I have 3 iBasso units ready to run from either DX50, DX90 coax out and DX80 has optical out. The plan is in motion. 

  For those wondering why I haven't just taken the plunge and done so its due to the current exchange rate in Australia which makes Mojo a $900 device rather than the lucky retail of $600 many USA consumers are getting.
 
Of course, this won't stop me, just takes a little more psyching up for the occasion. 

 
Enjoy! Shouldn't be long now, I'll be back.

This brings up a good point... Better how. Everyone has their preferred flavour and their own 'better meter'. It would be helpful if you described what is better. I would expect the optical to be smoother with a lack of RF noise as per Rob's posts. Also, as per Rob's posts, I would guess that the USB out has a little more bite to them, slightly elevated treble. Just curious is all.

Yep. The optical is smoother and calmer while the usb is more dynamic and shows better soundstage and imaging and slightly more details. Overall I think the usb sounds more balanced and bring a better musical experience in my case.

Been wondering if anyone can offer me a hig-end micro usb for the Mojo to connect it to my laptop. I'm looking for something really short, like 4-5 inches.
 
Don't wish to open the high-end usb cable debate, just looking for one for myself. Thanks!

I use the Silver Dragon cable from moon audio that I ordered with the Mojo. It is pricey but does the job well.
 
 
MBP → SDragon → Mojo → AQ Sky → LC

System concept cable is too short for me, anyone else make short optical to toslink? Just darn...

In fact you can custom the length and even the rotation angle of the cable with sysconcept. The "standard" mojo to ak type cable is just a popular specification for them to make available to us to order. In fact they are NOT an audio cable company, but a specialist manufacturer of optical related equipment.

Naive, I've posted this as a reply to you previously but Sysconcept does longer lengths as well if you don't like the standard low profile versions.
Please click the link above and go through the options and if really non are to your fancy, then I suppose you're better off with a standard length cable which the shortest is 30cm.

I've posted the same a couple times to NaiveSound. Choose your length. Just contact them to let them know what you want.

I'm actually sealing a purchase sale with a Mojo as we speak,  

 Its a basically brand new unit and with a nice discount.

See, that didn't take much. :wink_face:

Are you getting it from this guy?

Actually, I don't know what he looks like, that's even more scary. 

 
But the deed is done, should have by Thursday!

I've seen a China site (of course) where you can buy a mojo chassis (I'm sure fake) but idk what one would do with just a chassis, I mean the thing seems to be built well I don't see how negligent you have to be just to snap it or something. I guess China will make anything, maybe even another earth
