Built in M scaler would be fascinating.
I had the chance to listen to the Hugo TT with the M-scaler and was impressed.
The price tag was more than impressive, allmost 10 000€ with cables.
So a new mojo with M scaler would be a must buy, if it is affordable.

I think you are being insanely optimistic in expecting Mojo2 to contain a MScaler, with the associated heat generation, in a Mojo sized case.

Exactly. I'd think we'd see an m-scaler for the Hugo much before we would the Mojo, if even that's possible in the near future.

So now it really needs to sound awesome and beat current competitors since it looks... ugly

If it sounds as good as Mojo with the additions of better battery life, cross-feed and more power/more class A output then it’s a win. Additionally, I would expect more taps and better filters. I am not expecting an mScaler, BT, or other streaming. I think there is a good chance there will be a desktop mode.

OK... my turn for a crazy pipedream speculation:
Dave level device in a Mojo sized package and Hugo 2 price.

How am I doing?

I think you are totally in the insane speculation mode. Enjoy your wee dram.

More insane than the speculations of a Mojo with M-scaler built in??

Very interesting! Looks like a tabletop version in that picture. Maybe it is the new Mojo TT with built in M scaler

It looks like a Qutest with 4 balls.

insane speculations can trigger expectations in non-posters who are normally non-posters.
Please consider their mental health.

I did have the following statement as a preface: "a crazy pipedream speculation"
I do not think ANYONE would take my Mojo 2 speculation seriously...

In a Covid world, you cannot be sure that everyone will interpret insane speculations as such. Some head-fiers will interpret them as serious. That is on your conscience.

1k would be the perfect MSRP. So I'll bet it'll cost as much as a Hugo 2

It's going to be hilarious when chord launch the mojo 2 and it will be exactly the same as the mojo 1 but with USB c charging and a desktop mode.

My post was an attempt at humour, but don’t forget Moore’s Law! I would not be surprised to see M scaler technology built into a card the size of a micro-SD card within 20 years.

Looking forward to seeing what Chord comes up with in two weeks. It will be disappointing if the 3 month build up was for a mildly tweaked Mojo!

Not so funny for Chord when they have a bunch of units stacked in a warehouse and the company goes into major debt
