I am not sure if these are suitable for active speakers you mention.
 
 
2 options below, I have both, the first one/link, the 2 RCA plugs were very tight so it is best to push and twist them at the same time onto your amp but otherwise it very good for the money as I have tried several more expensive that did not sound as good.

It turned out that angelo898 has Genelec 8030a active speakers (told me via PM), which apparently require XLR, rather than RCA, input, so I updated my previous reply with an additional link:

Ever since I demoed Mojo about 2 weeks ago the thought of purchasing one has not left me alone.


 


Its haunting me.... Its caused a massive 'craving' I can't shake. Got me bad! 

 

So I see that you've taken the plunge....not to worry....you won't regret it.

If you can be patient, your wish may soon come true

Wow that looks great! Looks like the buttons sit much deeper through the case. That should really help. Thanks for taking the time to reply

Please can anyone help recommend on a 0.5m-1m optical cable? Is the Supra ZAC worth the £32?

Most cheap optical cables of this length are capable of 24/192 without dropouts.
Something like this should be fine.

Probably another 'late to the party' but I have noticed that there are more than a few old geezers like himself here having a blast with Mojo.  Does everyone already know about the live shows from Springsteen available for download?
 
if not, it is here:   http://live.brucespringsteen.net
 
If so, given how little I know about audio, but have iPhone 6, Macbook Pro, Mojo and Beyer T1.2, what download format should I purchase?
 
I have a few shows (avoiding repetition where I can) in MP3 format.  (This one is free:  http://live.brucespringsteen.net/live-music/0,13637/Free-MP3-Download-11-5-1980-ASU-Activity-Center-Tempe-AZ.html)
 
 
The price is more for "lossless" and "HD" 
 
Complete Show is 9.95 
 
Lossless   $12.95
 
HD:  $19.95 is FLAC or ALAC  
 
Thanks!

Avoid MP3 as it is lossy compression.
I looked at one of the shows and it said that it was mixed from 24/48 multi tracks, so there would be little point in going for the double rate DSD or 24/192 versions. The standard Lossless would look like the way to go.

  New Mojo owner checking in. First Chord product and you can color me impressed so far. I'm running from my MBP with JRMC20 into a pair of Grado GH1's and SennGrado's of my own design. Good stuff so far!

Congratulations.
 
I was so overwhelmed by the Mojo that it became my portable and desktop.  It replaced a desktop DAC, desktop AMP, and portable AMP in one swoop.  Both my wife and I are stunned at the sound quality and are enjoying so much of the music we stopped listening to due to years of repetition.  The Mojo has blown away everything I have tried.

Uzi, thanks.  As I learn, I will eventually figure it out, but I need advice now, so it is appreciated.  
 
I am using Tidal on the iPhone, though I should likely download Chrome and give it a try here at the MBP.   Mojo has opened up a new world of listening for us.

any android people managed to get mojo to play on spotify? i can get sound via UAPP but not other apps at all

Yes, since Mojo is with me constantly, I am concerned about nicks and falls, just about everything except being run over by a tank.  
 
Tidal:  Mojo:  Mac:   Chrome. 
 
I cannot get sound from Chrome under any conditions!  I have tried it using no connections, just internal speakers, as well as choosing Mojo, but no sound whatsoever.  Re-start, and reading through various google answers...zip.  
 
I really wanted to give the highest sound level they offer a chance knowing I have both the DAC and headphones to realize the potential.  
 
Anyone else?

Thanks.
I was tempted by something better as the SupraZAC at £32, but I will try then a more cost effective one.
I have just ordered Mojo with a KabelDirekt - PRO Series 1m for £4.79. I will get both this Friday!    Musical weekend ahead

 

[eltorrete]

I have a serious problem with my mojo.............................................
 
 
......... He has gotten into my IEMs a full orchestra ........... guauuuuuu all sounds great ....... from Hans Zimmer to Billie Jean to Prodigy, from Spotify to Onkyo HF ........... thank you thank you Chord.
 
 
 
Now it ask, how some portable amplifier to improve even more this beast with Full Headphones?
