Bloom's Take The original Mojo revolutionized personal audio, delivering astonishing performance and sound from such a small footprint. The Mojo 2 is Chord’s reengineered sequel and has done more than defend the throne: it has seized it. A “What Hi-Fi?” 2022 award winner, the Mojo 2 is a lovable little aluminum brick that provides the highest level of sound quality possible at its price point. We admit, the connectivity and feature set may feel slightly behind, especially when compared to iFi’s xDSD Gryphon, an equally impressive portable DAC. But sound-for-sound, the Mojo 2 takes the win and is easily one of the best portable DAC Amps on the market. It’s a must-have for those wanting the best possible sound from a device that slips into your pocket. Read the full review here. Still can't decide between the Mojo 2 and iFi Gryphon?

The British designed, engineered and built Mojo 2 is the most advanced portable DAC and headphone amplifier in the world.
Distinctly different from all other devices, Mojo 2 uses proprietary British digital audio technology perfected over more than two decades, coupled to a powerful ‘FPGA’ processor. The result is class-leading sound quality both on the move or at home, with the power to effortlessly drive any headphones. For music just as the artist intended, Mojo 2 brings you closer to the music than any other portable.
For more than 20 years, Chord Electronics has exclusively used powerful programmable (FPGA) circuits with custom coding to provide the most advanced digital-to-analogue conversion performance in the world. With digital audio technologies perfected over two decades, Mojo 2 contains more digital audio know-how than any other small DAC, resulting in unrivalled sound quality, all backed by peerless technical measurements from the lab.
Mojo 2 offers several ways to connect to digital devices, including smartphones, tablets and laptops, plus two 3.5 mm headphone outputs, meaning two can listen simultaneously. Digital inputs include fast-transfer USB-C, Micro-USB, optical and coaxial, with charging via a separate dedicated Micro-USB input.
Mojo polychromatic light-up buttons offer simple control with an additional visual guide to the device’s settings. A new menu button offers navigation through a new range of features, including the all-important completely transparent UHD DSP function.
Completely compatible with Chord's Wireless streaming module, the Poly version 3 which allows for wireless integration to your system.
Remarkably flexible Dac(built in equalizer). Very compact. Superb sound. Built like a tank but very light
I have the original mojo and I like the warm sweet sound the mojo 2 isn't as warm sounding but seems to have slightly better detail, and the ability to use eq is great, I think it is worth the upgrade over the og mojo.
Wanted something small and portable for the go, but also good enough to use as my main PC DAC/Amp. I've owned several Chord products, and this one is just as amazing as the others. It improves on all the aspects of the original mojo - more clarity, detail, and a larger sound stage. I also love that fact that there is a built in EQ so you can adjust on the device rather than depending 3rd party software.
To top it off, I bought this as an "open box" - at the time I purchased, Bloom didn't have one and sent me a brand new one at the same price. Now THAT is customer service - couldn't be happier with my purchase!
Magnificent Best headphone Amp Dac portable ever had
