Please don't 'come at me bro' with the 'no difference' debate.
I know the basic concept on digital output though its what I hear rather easily.
You should attempt the test blind. I know you don't want people to "Come at you" but facts are facts. If you know the basic concept, then you know that you've done something to alter the sound (different volume level) or your brain is tricking you. There is not another explanation. So you either don't understand the basic concept of digital output, or you're tricking yourself.
Have you ever thought about simply letting the person hear what they hear and not be a dick?
I am not trying to be a dick. But you are also not just letting people hear what they hear. You put that statement out in to the world, I did not. Hearing something like that from site contributors leads to people wasting money, it did for me. I would argue that you're doing harm to others (which is kind of a dick thing to do) and I am trying to help others not be misled.
Sure, though is it really going to make your day that much better to prove me wrong? Is it going to rock your world to sit here to debate the situtation until you feel you've won? I know my day has much better things ahead...
tl/dr, I'm over it mate, read it 1000 times from 1000 members, nothing will sway my mind.
Cheers,
Can I hook up my active speakers to Mojo? I'm tempted to downsize my headphone rig, and Mojo seems like a perfect solution.

This is exactly my experience.The L19 and the lavricable were both wonky. The http://penonaudio.com/Lightning-Pure-Silver-Decoding-Cable is 100% on the money!
I now feel no need to buy the Chord add-on for just the ergonomics. I'll wait for the next one

Im using it with an active speaker, and by using 2 ball press when on method -2 clicks, it will be as close to clean line as possible
Be careful with active speakers.
If the speakers themselves have a volume control then fine, just start the Mojo in lineout mode
If on the other hand your speakers are active monitors then the chances are that they don't have a volume control and need to rely on a separate monitor controller (Pre-Amp in HiFi parlance) for volume. Putting straight line out into those might give you a nasty and expensive surprise. You can use the Moĵo with these, but it takes the role of the Pre-Amp, so start with the Mojos volume very low and work up from there.
I'm not familiar with speakers here, so educate me:
isnt speakers with volume control "active", and without volume control is "passive"?
