Experience superior sound with the Chord Mojo 2 DAC & headphone amplifier. Perfect for audiophiles on the go. Read more.
The Chord Electronics Mojo 2 (2025) is aimed at music lovers and demanding listeners who want better sound from phones, tablets, laptops and other digital transports without moving to a full-size desktop stack. In Chord’s line-up, it sits as a compact but highly ambitious portable DAC/headphone amplifier, designed and built in Britain and shaped around the company’s long-standing digital engineering approach. The 2025 iteration is especially relevant for listeners who need travel-friendly size, serious decoding ability and a more refined personal listening setup at home, in the office or on the move.
Its appeal comes from a combination of proprietary FPGA processing, transparent UHD DSP tone shaping and genuinely useful connectivity. The updated Mojo 2 features one 3.5 mm and one 4.4 mm headphone output, with independent volume and DSP memory for each output, making it more practical for users who switch between different headphones. Digital inputs include USB-C, Micro-USB, optical and coaxial, and the USB-C port is now switchable for both charging and data duties. The precision-milled aluminium chassis also supports daily portable use while keeping the product unmistakably Chord in look and feel.
In real systems, the Mojo 2 (2025) can serve as a premium headphone front end, a compact DAC for a desktop rig or a flexible bridge between portable sources and more serious listening sessions. It also remains compatible with Chord’s Poly module for wireless streaming and playback expansion, which broadens its role beyond simple wired use. Sensible care is straightforward: use an appropriate charger, keep the ports clean and apply DSP adjustments with moderation to suit your headphones rather than overpower them. For listeners looking to upgrade personal listening without giving up portability, the Mojo 2 deserves a close look.
