email Chord UK support.
If need be, you can ship it to them - they can repair it for reasonable price.
Again I know! once they replaced the input chip (the largest chip next to the FPGA), installed a new battery, return p&P, altogether cost me £100 or so.

I got response from local dealer (Dubai), this dealer was recommend by Chord UK. They had my mojo for inspection and found that both mother board and battery needs to replaced, it will cost me 200 USD.

None of my DAC or AMP failed on me for past 20 years in this hobby. Below is pic of all my DAC / AMP, I still use the small iRiver on left, it works like charm even after 16 years of purchase. I never did overcharged or dropped my Mojo, but still it blowup for no reason.

Now I am seriously considering selling my Hugo 2 and get some DAC without any battery.

For casual listening no, you will not find much difference.

For critical session Mojo is definitely step ahead. V60 is bright, Mojo is warmer with better resolution.

Can anyone recommend an upgrade over Ikko Oh10? I've tried them today, enjoyed them a lot, but I'm aiming at higher budgets, to keep getting something in $500/800/1200/1500 ranges this year.

IBasso IT07 would be the best in < $1000 category. You don't have to look into the higher price level then.

Where could one buy a brand new chord mojo?

[edited] Mojo1 has ceased production, so dealers will be focussed on Mojo 2 now.
You might be lucky and find a dealer with some old stock on their shelves.
Otherwise there are supposed to be plenty of second hand Mojo1s advertised for sale.

Does the Sony WMC-NWH10 fit in the Chord Mojo Accessory Pack USB Module like Apple CCK?

Sony provide this guidance for connecting devices using the WMC-NWH10

The question then becomes do you have a suitable 'cable D' (see the diagram in the guidance)?

It looks like the Mojo Accessory Pack did not contain such a cable, presumably because the Mojo itself was shipped with a suitable cable (see this post)

If you don't have that cable already, then you will need to buy a 'male-USB-to-male-Micro-USB cable', but they shouldn't be hard to find in shops or on Amazon.

Hope this helps.

Has anyone compared the Chord Mojo against iFI Hip Dac 2?

No, I did not add battery to the mojo, I use its original internal battery for it, the battery you see attached to the PCB is the original battery from XDuoo 05BL Pro.

On the power side the only mod is to connect the 5V from the XDuoo to the mojo charging port. Take note that this 5V supply is only active when you charge the XDuoo via its USB C port, this way it charge both device at once.

will this work for mojo 2? or would you need to edit the file and move the coaxial port a bit higher? sine mojo2 now have a USB c port below the coaxial port. Thanks phtan.

Quick question, what are all the steps I need to take to make sure my Mojo is authentic/ legit?
