Hello,

I couldn't find an answer in the FAQ. I broke one of the headphone jacks (accidentally stepped on a headphone cable when it was plugged in) - I cracked the harness and now one of the headphone jacks only works if you hold the cable a certain way. Any idea on how I can get this fixed? Is this something I can do without soldering?

Do you mean the plug on the headphone cable is broken, or the socket in the mojo is broken?

The headphone jack on the Mojo is broken. I stepped on the plug of the cable with my big toe when it was plugged in, and I heard a nice plastic crack sound. The housing of the Mojo's input jack is broken now. It still works when I fiddle the jack around though.

The other jack is fine, but if there's a simple way for me to replace the 1/8" jack, I'd like to.

Resoldering the output jacks is not too difficult, because there is plenty of free space

Trying to resolder the usb inputs is much more difficult, and is usually a return to Chord for repair solution.

Thanks! It's the left/smaller jack too. Didn't realize there was so much room.... maybe I can try some sort of adhesive option first.

Very pleased with this combination of Shanling M0 and HD650's.

I no longer have red balls. Now I have red, green and blue balls.

Moderators! Forum sticky!

Very pleased with this combination of HiBy R3, Mojo and AudioQuest NightOwl as well!
Nice "Sound-Brick", really good usability and wonderfully enjoyable portable music!

do these wires sound good?

I have the CL06 to connect M0 to Mojo/Hugo.
They do the job just fine. Not a believer of digital cables affecting sound.

Hi I realized my mojo when fully charged blue light to green light lasted only approx 30 mins...and when it hit red only 10 mins toward blinking red before out of power. Whole process seem less than 4.5 hours...is the battery faulty

Bought only for 3 months...hmm. Please advise, appreciate it thanks

There's a lot of information on the battery in this thread. 4,5 hours is very short, sounds like aged battery.
Most if not all who had that premature battery aging used the Mojo as a desktop DAC/Amp, keeping it connected to the charger and using it at the same time.

In any case, I would change the battery. If it puffs, it can create enough pressure to deform the housing, and I don't even want to think of that pressure on the PCB...

Very nice indeed!!
Is that the L2 cable from Shanling?

One of the cell might be giving up. It's better to open(just 8 hex screws at the bottom) and check for swollen battery.

Looks very nice. All you need is a ultra-short USB-C to Micro-USB ribbon cable from AE.

Also, Mojo's bottom face (close to PCB) get much hotter than the top. Mojo's top face stacked to Hiby's bottom, would help with Mojo running cooler.

Yep that’s the cable, a nicely made cable too.

in the first instance I would urge you to contact your Chord-Dealer to seek advice and resolve any problem you maybe experiencing... hth.
