When charging do you get a solid white light or does it blink every 5 seconds or so? Need to make sure you use a powerful enough charger. Cheers

solid, all done as it should, no probs with charging, just not had more than 3 hours or so yet, so wandering if all of you got much less than 1o hours after first few charges?

Even though I'm hugely sceptical of hi-res, seeing that I had some space left on the internal memory of the AK120, just spent £51 on HD Tracks

If you're hugely skeptical of Hi-Res, then why choose HD Tracks as the first point of call for your Hi-Res material?

Hey-ho.... hope you enjoy your purchases

The MKII AK100 only fixed the headphone output impedance. It wont affect the optical output. I would have loved to have found an original, non-MKII version for even cheaper.
 
 
Thanks. Let the hunt begin.

Personally, I'm no fan of A&K, but, purely for the sake of Mojo owners, I'll let you all know that TTVJ are doing a very good deal on AK100Mkii today:

i am getting confused, sorry guys.. i am talking about Mojo's life, i am getting about 3 hours, will charge it all night again, but if it goes red soon, will contact Chord to get a replacement.
Zx100 is fine, great dap
They were so quick in attacking Sony.

If I didn't have the 120ii already I would get one, that is a pretty good deal. I also love the sq of the 120ii, I am waiting for an update on my Mojo to be shipped.

I basically have your same setup. The AK120ii the Mojo and Angie's. The combo sounds great. The only problem I have is the stacking the Mojo to the 120ii. Not quite sure the best way to do it. I've contemplated buying AK100 but I hate going backwards on tech.

How do you presently stack it? maybe take a photo. Are you using bands or o-rings?

Yes, the noise is there if I put my ear next to the Mojo -- same (to me) high pitched hiss. I tried fiddling with the volume and if I raised it high enough the Mojo seemed to get a little quieter when not playing, but it was too loud to listen on my CIEMs. The noise reduced slightly (and briefly) as I increased/decreased the volume.

So there is definitely something wrong with the Mojo here. I guess its good to know its not just me and my Mojo.

Hello JF here I'm pleased to report that My senior contact at JH has been using his Mojo since the Japanese show continuously under all conditions and IEMs he says his unit is totally silent so I think we have at most one possibly two faulty units out of the thousands we've now shipped. Just get your unit back to us with a note and we will replace it immeadiately.

they might like to demo those at The Pump... it must be said we had a one-box solution back in the day before the Walkman came out, PA systems ain't what they used to be... :wink_face:
They can put the microphones from that Sony recorder onto the ears of this headohone.
