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?
