Have you compared Mojo to equivalent priced desktop DACs? I'm considering buying a 2Qute, but the cost is a serious factor and I have an Asus STX II.
I have and like others, I want to be prudent about specifics because although I chose Mojo over others, there are some fine companies, with excellent reputations that I do not wish to disparage via comparison. The companies are in a tough spot with the technology poured into the Mojo, and like you, I initially asked this question but deleted it, instead opting for PM's for opinions.
Also, I am not an audiophile, nor a professional engineer, so my opinions are quite subjective. The only specialty I have is in carefully reading reviews and company's own statements (press releases, interviews, etc) and listen for honesty, first and foremost, as well as how much 'need to persuade' they employ, and so on.
An extreme example of such is seen in policy disagreements where, if you don't agree with me, you must be suffering from mental health issues (phobias) and/or are of such a low moral character as to render your opinion worthless. When something needs to be defended by deceit, or worse, by attack, it is likely not truthful.
A smaller example is products at amazon where there is a cluster of 5 star reviews; all from those who "received the product for free in exchange for my unbiased review." The percentage of free products and 5 star reviews is something to behold!
I saw rechargeable 18650 batteries with an entire page of 5 star reviews, all written by the same author (as evidenced in the language) who's first language is not English! It is comical.
I thought I was 'set' with my Desktop Dac and Amp, and portable Dac/amp when I began to read the reviews on Mojo. It was overwhelming. Then I listened to the 30 min youtube interview with the head of Chord and was impressed by the honesty and humility. It is rarer than most may think for people of success to speak this way and I, and others, find it in the business world to be actually inspiring.
When I tried Mojo, my reference point was good quality Dacs and amps. I went immediately to a most familiar song (40 years familiarity) and immediately knew what the reviewers were all saying and why it was "product of the year" in some magazines.
I do respect differing opinions and I am grateful to Head-Fi for the abundance of knowledge here. I have received excellent counsel on various issues and even now take Rob's posts, copy/paste the references I don't understand, and look them up.
=784602&advanced=1]On Mojo, one man donated many hours of work for us in the Q and A on Page 3!
This is a great forum.
Now, if I could just save my pennies and get an in ear that is worthy of the Mojo, I'd be all set. I have the Beyer T1.2 and use Tidal now. Both came from reviews and recommendations here at Head-Fi. It's an interesting place to read reviews, opinions, and to learn!
