Oh also since I'm plug it in permanently as desktop mode, anyone wish the + and - buttons are reversed so when oriented towards you (3.5mm jack towards you) the + would be at the top and - would be at bottom? Right now it's reversed, it's not a big issue just slightly annoying.......

Also the buttons are pretty loose so when you flip Mojo 2 upside down you can hear it falling lol. Just me being OCD lol.....

Any old Android phone with right angled short usb cable is a best transport. Uapp has tidal and qobuz login and uapp can also transfer first stage unfolded bit perfect mqa to mojo 2. I used to use a short silver usb cable with two ferrite clips and stack the phone over mojo. But currently I don't have an unused Android phone so using xduoo X10 optical out as source.

That would make the volume up button on the bottom and the down button at the top when in a pocket though.

Why Short!
mine is three feet long, keeps the noisy phone away.

So you don't use mojo 2 during walk ? 😄
No longer have it, but I have explained my reasons before.
A chunky mojo, rubber strapped to a player, covering the screen, weighing a pound , and not fit in any of my pockets, is not my idea of fun.
I keep (kept!) Mojo in my jacket top pocket, a thin USB connected to my phone in my side pocket.
I don't need to access Mojo, but my phone , I could take it out, change tracks, read emails or even answer or make a call.
A longer thin USB cable makes much more sense to me.

I don't get the tidal love, mqa doesn't work with chord and puts the sample rate to 88khz last I tried, does ipados or ios play apple music bitperfect with proper mojo lights? That alac sound weird or like other high res streams? Needed a new ipad anyway but waiting for ipad pro 2022.

ios transfer bit perfect with both Tidal and Apple Music, I have used them for Mojo V1 and Hugo2 (iPhone 13 Pro, SE 2020 and iPhone 6s) and of course, Chord's light is in the right colour according to music file.

oh that makes sense all the tidal chord talk, they need to fix their desktop apps, but I read Rob Watts hates mqa or something, it supports full definition of files? also do you notice any difference sonically apple high res vs tidal? I liked tidals ui the best besides spotify it's basically a spotify copy but the mqa tracks were messed up when I tried it, expensive too, maybe if it worked perfect on an ipad attached to my macbook and mojo it would be worth trying in the future unless spotify hifi will be better.

Good to know the lights are correct with apple music ios, it's solid and affordable.

I only use Tidal when connect to my PC because Apple Music on windows does not have hi-res. With iPhone I always use Apple Music, the quality is better than Tidal but it does not mean that Tidal is bad, Apple Music just better. Tidal application (on both iOs and Windows) unfold 2x before send it bit-perfect to Chord products.
