The most advanced portable DAC and headphone amplifier in the world!
Mojo 2 is an international award winner and has also been declared What Hi-Fi?’s Product of the Year 2024 in the DACs category. The POTY is the biggest award in the hi-fi industry and the Mojo 2 headphone amp and DAC, which includes the world’s first lossless tone controls, took top honours at last year’s event in London. Already awarded Best DAC 2022 (£300-£500), the Mojo 2 went on to win the big prize, despite stiff ‘competition’ from our Qutest DAC and Hugo 2 DAC/headphone amplifier.
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 award-winning 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.
