Yes,ive confused you sorry, I have the Mojo, I think Sony zx100 is better than AK100ii,soundwise into Mojo,Sony is more potent and energetic, powerfull, im not talking loudness,very clear audio into the Mojo.
I have ordered Questyle too, I wanted to use its optical, but it seems its not great, tho no one said specifically whats not so good about it, I assume its sound not so good out of optical as its from its ho.

 
Cool will try my Sony inputs (NW-ZX2 and Xperian Z5) when I get time

  They're correct. With the HUGO's stock optical cable (short), 192 is not detected on MOJO from AK120 II.


They are making a general statement:
 
"This behaviour is common via optical S/PDIF because the cables and TOSLINK connectors cannot reliably support the data rate 192k imposes."

I have the shortest optical 1300 fiber cable that Sysconcepts has made to works with optical in with the port of the dap directly above of the Mojo. This is in 2.2mm casing. I also have a 45degree that is even shorter but it is toslink to toslink and not 1300 fiber. The new one coming will work on a few daps I have here as they have optical ports in the same position, which is convenient.

From the report:
"Under test, the optical input worked to 192kHz from our spectrum analyser, only occasionally becoming intermittent, but 192kHz music files did not play at all from my Astell&Kern AK120 over Chord's own short optical cable. This behaviour is common via optical S/PDIF because the cables and TOSLINK connectors cannot reliably support the data rate 192k imposes."

​I don't know where they get their information. I have zero problem with optical handling the 192 signal with no drop out and the 1300 fiber cable I use has the bandwidth to easily handle and transmit this signal. I use the toslink and mini connectors. They have some false data here. 


Same here. No problems with 192 via optical at all. Cheers

I have never heard any hissing and even used my stethoscope. I have read of a few that did and from what I read, they were exchanged. 
The unit is faulty please return it to your retailer. John F this issue with very occasional units has been corrected for in production but there might be and of one from an early production batch.

Some of you guys might be using the Mojo with an iPhone and the CCK, before the Fiio L19 get available.
To add an extra cable is a real PITA.
Here is the solution

you just add the little adapter to your CCK and that's it.

By the way buy at least 2, because it could be fragile.
 
 
You can see the result with my iPhone 6s Plus

And to fix both units, I just add some 3M Dual lock

I am loving the MOJO! Very musical compared to my geek pulse (vanilla). Just one Question :

I am using it with my laptop and Jriver media center. I can play dsd files when on wasapi but MOJO detects no signal for the same files on ASIO. Jriver is still playing the file but it is not being picked up by MOJO. Any ideas?

Damn, I thought it might the the plug for the flux capacitor.


Use the flux capacitor to travel back in time and change it to be a plug for your flux capacitor.

Thanks, I saw that on Amazon UK earlier today. I'll order one now that I know it works.
