Update: actually my 2019 MacBook Pro does not have SPDIF supported anymore, so that is not really an option.
Yep, Apple giveth and taketh away. And they do so with no advance notification.

I have to say the Mojo is in no way compare with the signature in all aspects. The signature is not a natural sounding unit however it is definitely fun to listen to with lot of details and energy. It drives all my headphones with ease. It's simply worth more than it cost.Hi
Does anyone have chord mojo too?
Apart from being less powerful, how is your profile compared to signature?
Cheers
If I was to plan to use it as a desktop DAC I would get the Neo. It is way more convenient to use especially one does not need to worry about battery level (it is running out very quickly) and unplug the USB C cable every time the signature is in no use (for safety reason I don't keep any electronic devices with internal battery charging while I am not attending). If you have a headphone that needs 3W (the max output from signature) power to drive you probably need a dedicated headphone amp.I took a chance and ordered the Micro iDSD signature from Amazon. I've read the criticisms on this thread about the volume pot and other issues, but I couldn't find a comparable amp/DAC unit around the same price that has as much power, plus a balanced headphone out.
I looked at the Neo iDSD as an option, but I don't need Bluetooth, it has less power, and it lacks the standard iFi switches and buttons to change the sound.
I really enjoy the iFi house sound. I'm temporarily using the iDSD Pro in my desk setup. Previously, that spot was occupied by a Micro iDSD BL, but it died an untimely death. Hopefully, the iDSD Signature will work out as a replacement for the BL, so I can move the iDSD Pro back to my main system.

I am not sure about how the signature will pair with your headphones as I don't have any of them. I do have the Mojo and also a Dragonfly Cobalt. The signature outperforms both of them using my B&W P7 which is an easy driven headphone and already sounds so good in the Mojo and Cobalt. The P7 is a forward sounding headphone and the signature is slightly forward sounding too with extended treble and punching bass. They get along with each other well. I don't see why the signature won't handle your headphones in a positive way.Hi
What I would like to know is if mojo is complementary, different enough from signature to have both.
I have a fostex th900 m, gh2 grade and hifiman ananda.
I've read that mojo is an excellent combo with fostex and grade. They already sound great with ifi but I'm curious if the warmth of mojo would suit them
Cheers

I haven't explain it well. The signature sounds great with them but it is my only source right now and I would like to have some more to complement. Beside, I'm sure that chord mojo is not going to sound better since users compare signature with hugo 2. I'm just saying that I would like to have it as a complement if its sound presentation is quite different.I am not sure about how the signature will pair with your headphones as I don't have any of them.

Right now I'm listening to my signature gh2 grado and they sound amazing.

Try Cable Creations - on Amazon...... I'm using them - no issuesI am looking for good quality USB extension cable (USB A male to A female) for the unit. Is there any suggestion? The "best" I can have so far is UGREEN brand from Amazon.
Thank you. I will look into the Cable Creations.Try Cable Creations - on Amazon...... I'm using them - no issues
Yes you can And you could use 5.20 as well, very good sounding !@iFi audio Would like to confirm that currently the iDSD Sig only supports firmware 5.3? I don't see the model supported yet in the list of iFi models that can upgrade to 5.3c. Thanks in advance.
