Chord Electronics Mojo 2 (updated) – DAC and headphone amplifier
Chord Electronics Mojo 2 is a portable DAC and headphone amplifier for those who want to get more out of their headphones—both on the go and in a fixed setup. The updated version makes it even easier to integrate into modern systems with a 4.4 mm output and USB-C charging. You still get the same flexible and precise sound reproduction, but with improved compatibility and a simpler everyday experience.
Highlights
Portable DAC and headphone amplifier
4.4 mm balanced output and 3.5 mm output
USB-C for both data and charging
FPGA-based DAC with proprietary technology
Lossless DSP for tone adjustment without loss of quality
Up to 8 hours of battery life
Multiple digital inputs (USB-C, Micro-USB, optical, coaxial)

Precise and flexible sound reproduction
Mojo 2 uses Chord's own FPGA architecture, which handles signal processing with high precision. This provides reproduction where detail, dynamics, and timing come together naturally. The built-in DSP makes it possible to adjust the sound to your preferences without affecting quality, so you can tailor the experience to different headphones and music genres.
Better compatibility in practice
With the new 4.4 mm output, you get access to a wider range of modern headphones. At the same time, the 3.5 mm output is still present, so you can use existing cables. Each output remembers its own volume level, making it easy to switch between different headphones without having to adjust the volume every time.
Simpler charging and use
The USB-C port now handles both data and charging, so you do not need to use multiple cables. This makes Mojo 2 easier to use in everyday life, whether it is connected to a computer, streamer, or mobile device. The improved battery management also ensures stable operation and efficient charging.
Compact design for both mobile and stationary use
Mojo 2 is built in a solid aluminum chassis, making it easy to take with you and durable in use. At the same time, you can use it as a permanent part of a desktop or hi-fi setup, where desktop mode makes it possible to keep it connected to power continuously. This provides a solution that works in several situations without compromising the listening experience.
