You can get dual coaxial, with Chord. If you are using a Blu Mk2 or M-Scaler, it can output at 768KHz. For some reason Rob Watts uses dual coaxial. He utilises both 384KHz coaxial input channels of a DAC like Qutest, Hugo 2, or TT 2. Then does some clever trickery inside the DAC to make them one stream. Or processes them in dual, but I don't know.

Mojo has 38,000 taps, according to new info RW shared during his Nintronics presentation. I wonder if that's at half or full speed? Hmmm, previous info had it at 50k taps running at half speed...

How strange. I'm so surprised that Mojo is 38K taps (from Rob's own words, no less).

Maybe I had originally heard it wrong, but I recall reading somewhere (years ago now), that the Mojo, which came after the original Hugo, had the same number of taps as the Hugo, so 26K taps (though running at half speed, some kind of interpolation or something along those lines).

Until your post @maxh22 , and of course the video you link to, I had never read about anything other than 26K taps. Of course, even the 26K taps was never written officially on the Chord website (at least, not years ago when I was checking for it and looking for formal statements to that effect)

Yes , it was originally stated , back when Mojo launched, that Mojo and Hugo have the same or similar number of taps but after more questions were asked (many from myself included) it became clear that the implementation in Mojo is slightly different than Hugo with respect to tap length.

Anyways, I ended up watching Robs entire presentation (both parts) and found it quite enjoyable. The Info about Mojo really surprised me though.

This is what I remember. Same taps as Hugo at half speed. Then some folk were pointing out a post that John Franks made, saying it had about 50K at half speed.

It’s actually always been mentioned in this thread as 26K TAPs, or around 50K TAPs at half speed (never less than Hugo1). These past few posts are the first I’ve read in this thread of half of 26K.

Interesting that Rob finally revealed 38K for Mojo, whatever ‘speed’ it is run at because I know this was a big deal for them not to reveal the actual number for a loooooong time.

Regarding my question above for connecting the Mojo by coaxial cable to a streamer, can somebody please confirm that the cable in the picture will work? Or are there too many rings on the 3,5 mm end?

One ring too much. You need for the Mojo 3-Pole.

For mojo is better (more guaranteed) with mono 3.5mm pin like this one:

here some cheap options including an adapter that can work if you already have a good single RCA cable on both ends.

I dont know if this was talked about before: how is the DSD treated inside Mojo? Is it converted to PCM before analog or directly to analog?

 

[Focux]

Tried Mojo earlier without Poly module and am pleasantly surprised with its sound. If I had to give a number for empirical certainty, Mojo sounds 15% better than xDSD (personal opinion).

Anyone tried the Schiit Magni & Modi 3? Am very keen to know how they fair against Mojo before I pick one up

I heard the combo before it's not too bad, the modi has a thicker and punchier sound than Mojo but completely falls apart when things get hectic. Mojo also has much better detail retrieval and layering.

I just got a Liquid Spark as an early bday present from a friend and it has great synergy with Mojo. If you want that punch in the low end and a more relaxed sound this combo is much better than the schiit stack for my tastes.

Does/Has anyone use the Mojo in their main speaker system? If so, how do you keep it powered? Do you have to always take it out of your system and charge it?

I hooked it up in my main rig and it sounded better than my Cambridge 840C DAC so now I want to utilize it there but not sure about the logistics of it.

Until I got 2Qute for my main system I had used the Mojo. Playing through it only on battery and when I'd turn the system off I'd plug the charging cable to charge it. Even with headphones I still do the same. It has been three years and I've never had a battery problem.
