Input selection is handled automatically. The Mojo Black’s illuminated globe-style buttons change colors to display the current battery life and sample rate (the max of which will depend on which input you use and the source quality). The control scheme is fairly simple but it adds a nice visual touch to this compact design. The low-end and high-end receive plenty of space in the mix too, making this a great option for those who want to hear lossless audio as it originally sounded in the studio. But that is not the case with the Mojo Black. The mids are a standout feature, as other DACs I have reviewed will deliver a V-shaped frequency response that leaves vocals sounding muddled.
It can convert digital sources audio up to 768kHz 32bit and can even play quad DSD 256 files. The standout feature of gear from Chord is that the company makes its own proprietary microchips to handle digital-to-analog conversion. In other words, this device is almost too nice to leave the house. And while its built-in battery means that you could take it on the go and use it with your phone, the raw performance power of the Mojo Black means that it would be best paired with your most high-end headphones and speakers.

The Chord Mojo Black is a portable amp/DAC that proves that size isn’t everything.
