Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

[masterpfa]

After spending few days reading the thread I have ordered chord mojo and it's coming tomorrow.

Will post my impressions and how it compares to my oppo ha2 se.

Hope it pairs well with my hd660s

I hope you get to enjoy as much as many here are.
PS make sure your doors at locked first with your back to the wall.

What days do you all rec for use with the mojo? I'm using a m0 but it is a bit small on top of the mojo!

I have an A&K AK100

PS not a recommendation as such just an example of what I have used it with. I was for sometime looking at the Shanling M1 or M2

Hi ,

I know it might be of topic but I am thinking in buying mojo and just wanted to ask if it's worth upgrading from oppo ha2se.

Thanks for your help.

Ooooooh yes

Ooooooh yes

I recieved it few hours ago , still haven't used it as I have it on charging I have read that it is best to leave it for 10 hours so still have to wait untill it's fully charged.

One thing I have noticed is that it gets quite hot when it's charging .

My apologies reading the messages in the wrong order.

Yes leave it to charge for the recommended 10 hours, then plug in headpbones and enjoy.

It does get hot but nothing to worry about

You can nevertheless listen to it for a (short) while, it doesn't hurt the Mojo, just bears the risk of a thermal shutddown (which means there's no risk of damage either way).

Are there any really serious and known inconveniences for using Hiby R3 with Mojo?

 

[gazzington]

Prob a silly question. IM playing flacs out of a m0 bit the sample rate button on the mojo is red. Why could this be?

It's probably because you're playing a 44.1kHz Flac file... the sample rate ball corresponds to the kHz of the file not the format, hth

Ah ok. The colour that ball shows while playing music is the sample rate and not power left in device?

the ball is just the sample rate... the power left in the mojo is through a little hole located under the power USB, hth.

Red is showing that your are playing the sample rate of 44.1khz

Orange is 48, Yellow is 88, Green 96 etc

they are on the side of your Mojo box

Hi All,

My Mojo battery drains quickly and takes a long time to charge. Chord suggested that I contact George Meyer AV, and I got a $165 flat-rate quote for inspection and repair, including parts and labor. This seems a little high. I remember someone in the forum mentioned that Chord reduced the price of Mojo battery replacement. Has anyone sent the unit in for inspection and battery replacement? How much did you pay? Any help will be appreciated. My unit is out of warranty (2-years-old).

If you are pretty sure it’s the battery, you are out of warranty, and can use a screwdriver, you can try this:
