Rolling with a similar setup at work.

Omoton stand + Apple MagSafe + Apple iPhone X + DDHIFI HFi09s + Mojo2 + ALO Gold 16 + 64 Audio Trio

The EQ on the Mojo2 is simply amazing… The ease of making incremental changes to the sound has transformed at least one pair of IE monitors and a couple pairs of headphones into sonic bliss. I‘ve never really been interested in EQ my music (A&K’s EQ is crap), but the Mojo2 makes it effortless. Chord has won me over and I’m hoping that there is an updated Hugo on the horizon for my next step up.
I forgot to attach the pics I took!

I personally think it is good to show Mojo 2 owners who might be considering a Poly just how many headaches Poly user’s are still having with a device that Chord still can’t get right after, what, 5-6 years.
It is right if you use it right. I use it every single day and don't notice the shortcomings at all.

People who are happy with a product tend to post much less than the disappointed ones.

I bought my Poly when it was first released (11/17). I use it mostly for Roon, occasionally for mSD playback.

The only problem I've encountered was with my old mesh network. Since I got the Asus XT8, it's been absolutely flawless.

I’ll be chucking my money at them when a Hugo 3 with lossless EQ comes out … I’ll sell body parts if I have to
I think there will be a huge line of body parts! It’s a common recurring request here.

Also a common recurring theme is Poly. Mine is … and has been … transformational and effortless. Issues used to happen until they got stability. A pleasure every evening and yes connecting to 4G through the polys hotspot is completely doable (on iPhone) but you need to know how. I’ve forgot!

Yes but not immediately, when I connect my smartphone to the Poly in hotspot mode, at first I have to deactivate the data network, then after control the music inside the micro SD through the MPD App, i can reactivate the data network and without any problems, and the MPD control App continues to work
Thanks! Does MPD App available on Android?

For those looking for a cheap DDC to connect with your Chord Mojo, consider the SMSL PO100 Pro.

First impression: it's letting the Mojo perform with no issues stemming from EQ adjustments, something I dealt with while connected via Mojo's USB port.

For $70.00, it's all I could ask for. Recommended.
Thank you :)

Anyone else getting fairly audible hiss mainly on the left channel using sensitive headphones (in my case Final Sonorous III) with the Mojo 2 ? Or could my unit be defective ?

It stands to reason that anything that is happening on one channel only can only be due to a faulty Mojo 2.

That of course assumes you have narrowed the problem down to the Mojo 2 by trying different sources and headphones/IEM and the problem remains.

Indeed, that happens even when the Mojo 2 is unplugged, and with 2 of my more sensitive headphones.

Have you tried other sources?
other DACs.
May sound silly, but it could also be your ears.
Swap the earphones around, see if noise goes to other ear, if it does, it couldn't be the ears.
