Can liquid spark be driven from a powerbank via usbor is it solely a desktop solution?
You need to clarify your question. Do you mean stream music using Bluetooth to the mojo, or alternatively use Bluetooth to control the music that is played on the mojo?hey. I have a chord mojo but would like to use it bluetooth without spending a fortune on poly. Is there a way?
Without being patronising - what are you trying to accomplish ?I want to stream music from phone to the mojo

Thanks for your feedback. I use optical almost exclusively, because it eliminates the electrical noise.I would like to share my bizarre experience with my Chord Mojo.
I bought it in December 2015 and use it mainly as DAC for my stereo system. For the 3 years that I am using it I am among those few that could not hear the difference between the Mojo and other competent DACs. I compared it against Rega DAC, Arcam irDac, Naim UnitiQute's internal DAC, and other less known converters that I had. I can hear slight differences between them, but not in a 'game-changer' level.
Occasionally, when reading through the online forums I find that I am not alone. ( here, for example). But I kept the mojo anyway. Why? Because when I first connected it to my amp when it was new, I thought I heard the 'magic' for some 15 minutes. But for some reason, that magic disappeared, permanently. Since then, whenever I have the time I have been tinkering my system to find again that 'mojo' that I thought I heard.
I tried the following, among many things:
- used all inputs (coax, toslink and USB). The USB with laptop on battery, or iphone on airplane mode. The toslink sounds smoother, coax and USB had more bite. But again, nothing extraordinary.
- tried with different amps (Naim Nait XS, Naim UnitiQute, Denon AV Receiver, a class D amp from Pioneer).
- maintained my physical fitness via regular exercise ( I find this critical for my hearing ability and enjoyment of this hobby)
To cut the story short, tonight I am typing this post while listening to mojo and hearing the magic again!
Recently I was troubleshooting a regular audio drop-out while streaming music via my apple airport express to the mojo. And the last thing I did was to align the apple device to the mojo, so that the toslink cable is practically straight. This almost solved the drop-out issue. And to my surprise, also improved the sound greatly!
I've now replaced the seemingly faulty toslink cable but with the replacement it seems that the best sound is also when the cable is straight. I'm still trying to get my head around this. I've read that the mojo is able to eliminate jitter, and with digital I thought it is all or nothing. So this is really a head-scratcher. And no, the USB still does not sound extraordinary.
Anyway, I am now greatly enjoying what I am hearing. The sound is three dimensional. Best described with Wow!
Sorry for the long post.
I use Chromecast Audio and toslink cable to Mojo. It is WiFi based and you get a perfect bit lossless to.If you've got an Android 8 phone, then this device could get you half-way to the Mojo, with High Res audio (it's a Bluetooth 5.0 LDAC Receiver, that outputs I2S) - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Lus...AC-APTX-LDAC-LDAC-Module-IIS/32966728862.html
You'd still need to convert the I2S to SPDIF (coax or optical), to connect to a Mojo digital input. Something like this should work - https://www.ebay.com/itm/I2S-to-SPD...ard-IIS-Input-Coaxial-44-1K-192K/173617242108
I do the same with an airport express. Works great with Roon and toslink to the mojo. And does a dual duty extending my WiFi network. Of course these are also discontinued now too...I use Chromecast Audio and toslink cable to Mojo. It is WiFi based and you get a perfect bit lossless to.
Get one now at very low price as it has been discontinued by Google. It is the best and cheapest solution with better sound quality than Bluetooth.
