Will any micro to micro work for connecting this to my s6 edge? Got the mojo but not the cable

 
No, it must be an OTG cable (as opposed to a standard data or charging cable)
 
Look in Post #3 for more info

So all of a sudden, this micro usb otg cable to connect the mojo to my s6 edge is like finding the holy grail...
 
 
Did you look in Post #3, as I suggested?
 
It contains a link to this:
 
 
Any particular OTG cable recommendations for connecting the Mojo to a Note 4 phone? Thank you.

Micro to Micro option

 
Alternatively, if you need something cheaper, then, as bavinck mentioned, you can often find them on eBay (sometimes you may need to get one from a Chinese seller, sometimes a UK / USA seller)

Strange to hear it's problematic to get hold of a OTG cable in the UK...
I bought mine in a expert store... Like Best Buy in Germany... I really had to dive in the cable wall to find it... The clerk didn't know what I wanted... But it was there.
I'm sure you can get one in a local electronics store.
Cheers
You'd think so, but no, i went into 5 different stores, tried two seperate audio specialists, rang an online company, on the whole of amazon and ebay uk is 1 suitable cable I could find. Being a portable audiophile device aimed at the mobile market im surprised its such a job to find a micro to micro otg myself lol

I would not only be unsurprised, but I actually anticipate that the forthcoming cable bundle from Chord will probably far outstrip sales of Mojo itself (already in the tens of thousands), because it will serve the needs of so many portable/pocket audiophile devices, around the world.

Just received my shipping notification from Moon Audio... For Saturday delivery!!! There is a God and he is smiling down on me right now!!


Haha.. I just got my Mojo 30 minutes ago and when I opened it the first thing the instructions say is, "Please fully charge the unit before first use (minimum 10 hours)."

Did anyone try listening to their Mojo right out of the box? I'm going to follow the instructions but I was just wondering

If you use those 10 hours to read post 3, you could save yourself some time

Thanks for the finds, the first link looks like two seperate connections?? Micro to mini? I've ordered the micro to micro otg plus the second link was in american dollars. Thanks for the links though, appreciated!

First link has options:
 

 
 
But I admit it's not the shortest of cables.
 
 
 
 
As for the eBay link. there shouldn't be a problem with ordering it in dollars, for shipping to the UK, unless the seller specifically says they won't do it (that seller will ship to the UK):
 

 
...but, yeah... I admit there would be a wait for several days for it to arrive from HK...

Mmmm... yes, I feel your pain. Maybe you can use your Mojo (at home) with a computer, while you wait for the micro cable to arrive?

The shortest microUSB to microUSB OTG cable I have found at 7cm

8inch will be ideal, I will use velcro to fasten it to the back of my phone case, 8 inch will give me enough room for cable bend, decent placement and no strain on connection joints. It should be all good

It would help future Mojo buyers, if it gets kinked on the third post and they look there. Your situation shows that that probably will not happen. Lol.
