Well I've read enough, my mojo will be for sale tomorrow I didn't realise how bad it was
Well played!

I just thought that forums views (in general not everyones) wasnt the greatest of vibes towards chord in general along with the mojo or hugo. Im a total noob, to me my setup sounds decent, the gear you guys got may say it sounds horrendous in comparison i dont know lol. I've spoke to good guys on here for advice etc and that forum had me second guessing things thats all. Sound is subjective I get that. Im waiting for my jvc sz1000 to arrive, i love bass and have been told theyre excellent for what I want, alot of people may prefer to eat a plate of wolf **** before they listen to them lol

When you find something better, please let us know.
Somehow unless it is another Chord, which means more expensive, or another DAC at 10X the price, I do not think it is possible. Negativity of some people on that forum feel like they did not have enough vitamins in their childhood.
I think you really need to have a listen for yourself, I can see your headphones being the limiting factor but looking long term if you plan on getting better headphones then its well worth the investment !
I know next to zero about audio pretty much and im just starting out. Glad its not just me that picked up on the bad vibes that basically said the mojo is ok but theres better around and its overhyped...
Ye a store within 25mins of me has it to demo so I'll get there within a week. All in all I have the v moda crossfade wireless i wear walking to the gym and on way to work. Sz1000 will be pretty much the same but for harder bass wants. Haven't spent much time lately with my psb m4u2, looking to sell to fund more audio purchases.
Im basically thinking of the mojo as i love rock from whitesnake/bon jovi through to kings of leon and onto mike and the mechanics and fleetwood mac etc. I want a pair of headphones that when I close my eyes its as though the band are playing close to me and I can feel the spaciousness encapsulating me. Ive heard the fidelio x2 pre gibson are stellar for that kind of music for the price. Any suggestions mate?

Considering how much "hype" is here - Mojo is something very very special.
To tell the truth - $600 is insane amount of money for a DAC in my book, but to take it from me you'd have to kill me. It was made for my brain! Some other brain might be different, but it looks like a lot of us here get what a presious piece of equipment Mojo is.
It is so good, that I almost completely stopped reading this thread because I'm enjoying listening to it nonstop.
I received the Mojo today. Unfortunately I can't test it because
A. Mojo requires 10 hour charge before 1st use (according to setup instruction)
B. Dummy me forgot to order a male USB OTG cable for the USB-C adapter (seen attached to WP)
I purchased a longer USB charge cable, I was surprised how short the included one is.
Love the size of the Mojo. Can't wait to hear it one day!]
Only needs charging until the light goes off, unfortunately that doesn't help with the lack of cable
Why do we now have yet another different USB connection, why couldn't they just stick to micro USB for all phones and portable devices, it would make things a lot simpler.
type c usb has much more power draw and potential for more accessories i think
After reading comments from the other forum, I would conclude that quite a number of the negativity stems from 2 main issues:
1) transient response and precision of reproduction
2) coloration of sound
Because of the way each person perceives sound, it isn't wrong they feel that way or hear things differently from their comfort zones or preferences but I guess it's just the way they articulate their feelings that's quite off putting.
