Chord Electronics Mojo 2 Sets New Price-Performance Standards for DAC/Headphone Amplifiers: Vivid Sound, DSP Functionality, FPGA Processing

Building on the success of the Mojo, its acclaimed predecessor, Chord Electronics designed Mojo 2 with the goal of creating the most advanced DAC/headphone amplifier available in its price class. Mojo 2 plays your favorite music with class-leading detail and clarity, right up to reference-level quality.

Distinctly different from all other devices, Mojo 2 uses innovative, proprietary British digital audio technology, 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. Mojo 2 brings you closer to the music than any other portable, giving you pristine, authentic, dynamic playback.

For more than 20 years, Chord Electronics has exclusively used powerful programmable (FPGA) circuits with custom coding to provide the most advanced digital-to-analog 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 people can listen simultaneously. Digital inputs include fast-transfer USB-C, Micro-USB, optical and coaxial, with charging via a separate dedicated Micro-USB input.

The 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.

"Familiar in form but next-level everywhere else, the Mojo 2 is the 'The Godfather Part II' of DAC sequels... Music has the vividity of a stained-glass window here — bright, intricate and demanding of your attention..."
—What Hi-Fi?, five-star review, 2022 Product of the Year Winner: Best DAC

"Bass is bold, straight-edged and loaded with detail both broad and fine. The midrange is explicit in its powers of communication. The top of the frequency range has bite and shine, but is controlled well enough to avoid any hardness..."
—Simon Lucas, TechRadar, five-star review

“There is no shortage of power nor of fine detail; I was impressed on several occasions at the way it could pick out the quieter sounds.”
—Hi-Fi+, 2022 Highly Commended Product Award, Personal Audio Electronics 

"Whether plugged into a computer, phone or streaming via Poly and Roon, the Mojo 2 is not only a highly capable DAC/headphone amplifier but a lovely bit of kit that should still be giving great service in five years — and beyond."
—Jay Garrett, StereoNET, Applause Award
