This thread shows that Chord have put out a really good product, particularly price-wise. A lot of people are posting similar comments to the Hugo thread when that first came out, and clearly they have tapped a brand new audience who find the price, and of course the extra portability (hence some Hugo owners getting one) very welcome.

Well done Chord.

what most impresses me is how well the mojo drives my cans..both my HD800 and my either have no trouble at all being driven by the Mojo...n such a tiny package it is quite remarkable

What is that, two amps?

After following this thread from the start, finally I will pick up my mojo today. I intend to use a volume capped UK iPhone 6 as transport. Does anyone know whether this would be an issue with power to the mojo. I will be using shure 846 iem's .sorry if this is a dumb question .

You can use the Mojo in line level mode, its not perfect but its still quite good.  I'm actually using mine like that right now as my Bifrost is out getting its multibit upgrade.  PC -> Uptone Audio Regen -> Mojo -> Lyr 2 -> LCD-X and it sounds amazing.

Sound be fine since the Mojo will be doing the D to A conversion along with the amplification.

hows the mojo with the CT-6E does it synergies well?

 

[jimbojangles]

That's great Thankyou for the prompt replyMrBucket

Hey right now I have the ct6e in my ears and trust me this combi blows me away with the ct6e. Simply the best pairing I have heard out of the ct6e.

I suspect mojo with my fireflies might sound even better! But Cdm and mojo are portable so that's the best part!

 

[ZzmadzZ]

And yes it's considered double amplification but honestly mojo paired with Cdm sounds Soso much better to my ears. With improvement in the soundstage and a much lusher and analogish mids!

Mojo alone is fantastic too though! Just happen to have a Cdm lying around hahaha. Got a pleasant surprise with their synergy!

 

[jlbrach]

i have the yiggy/rag combo which is superb but that said there is absolutely no need to double amp the mojo and add all kinds of layers onto the music....the mojo does just fine as it is and everything i have read tells me amping either the hugo or the mojo makes little sense.....that is just my 2 cents

 

[FidelityCastro]

I believe the thinking behind it is to use the best of each device, if you happen to have both. I.e. You use the Chord DAC (mine happens to be Hugo) and then use the CDM tube amp to warm up the Chord sound.
However, I appreciate that you can't take the Chord amp out of the equation, so it's not ideal.
I've tried it with the Hugo/CDM and it certainly sounds good, but I wouldn't carry it around with me, even with a bag. I tend to just use one or the other, seeing as they're both DAC+AMP and play around with different IEM synergies to get a "better" / different SQ flavour. YMMV etc.

 

[ZzmadzZ]

Oh definitely, mojo by itself is good but what's wrong with alittle experimenting to spice up the sound? If it sounds even better why not? Hahaha.
