Has anyone paired CCA through TOSLINK to Chord Mojo? If so, which are the results?
Thanks
My Chord Mojo and CCA through toslink work together flawlessly and sound great to me. I mostly use Spotify and to me it sounds identical to a direct Spotify link (ie, like Spotify through USB from a computer). There is no pausing, skipping through the CCA/Toslink. I have read that CCA passes through a bit perfect copy of the 44.1K Spotify stream and have no reason to dispute this...so the CCA/Toslink. I do not stream many Hi-Def files so I cannot comment on that.
Advantages of CCA over some other options include a a pretty wide selection of source options..(Spotify, Tidal, Pandora, BubbleUPnp, GoogleMusic) and the fact that Google has a team constantly improving the firmware for quality and functionality. Downsides would include poor itunes/apple music integration, lack of Amazon music integration.
Certainly, with your investments so far it would make sense at least to try a CCA. Your out $30 and a little time if you do not like it. I can tell you the chord DAC and CCA play together great.
