To anyone who is curious to the episode where the Mojo died it is "Big Companies make the Worst Junk." 2:22 for the exact time stamp. We were introduced to the Diablo 3 episodes earlier in "Even Hello Kitty made an MP3 player..."
I've heard that adapting any of the balanced outputs of DAC's to the unbalanced 3.5mm male on most cheap earbuds and cheap ear-cans will damage the amplifier on the DAC. They think that's been the problem with the Diablo's amplifier getting damaged way too soon since there's no 3.5mm output.
6-year Mojo 1 owner here. It’s been a great little DAC/amp so far, but please keep a few things in mind before purchasing one. Firstly, after-sales service isn’t great. You have to send the unit back to the UK to get serviced. Secondly, changing the battery yourself isn’t hard to do at all, but it takes some research to find the correct battery (which is oddly enough the same used in some remote control toys). Thirdly, be careful about charging and using it at the same time, because it gets bloody hot. Otherwise, it’s been a great product. I mainly used it as a line out DAC to my Schiit Asgard 3.
Mojo 2 does not have the charge + use issue. It'll automatically go into "desktop mode" and switch the battery off if it's charged and plugged in. Runs much cooler and extends the battery life. Big improvement over the 1 there.
Wade, I just want you to know, Scarlet Fire was in my Spotify Wrapped because of this channel. Thank you so much for everything you do and please....keep up the NUGGETRY!
The Mojo->Diablo->Mojo 2 thing is almost poetic, really. Its unfortunate to see the Diablo let go, but has basically lived the life of a burnout car like you said, and its good to see you get your Mojo back.
I remember when the diablo came in and got its first kill, it's a shame it finally started giving out. The timing with the new gen mojo nearly replicating what happened with the OG mojo and the diablo though, it had to have been fate lol. Happy to see the new and improved king returning to the stage, and my respects go out to the diablo for all of the dirty buds it has destroyed.
You made me get a Schitt stack and a pair of HD600’s for my home gaming setup, couldn’t be happier and haven’t even entertained anything else since. Love what you do, and am always pumped for these audio videos!
To be fair to the diablo and the original mojo, they were designed to put out a signal that strong, but probably not across such low impedance headphones. That combo draws a lot of current.
Yeah that’s a huge amount of current. I bet it’s dried out the power capacitors! Especially with the way it was cutting out only in the transients in Scarlet Fire, it could keep up until those brief bursts. It’s probably imminently save-able.
1. Love your content man, the mic stories are what get me 2. You convinced me to buy a pair of WH1000XM4s and they have revolutionized my music life (and the adaptive noise cancelling is great) 3. Keep up the good work 4. Would love to see some smashing stuff in the future (maybe a mini hydraulic press or a crusher for the nugget dips)
i cant describe how much i missed the mojo, I can remember the mojo being a ruthless killer, the diablo idk just never lived up to its name. Long live the king i guess
I remember when he said something about the Diablo not being as powerful as the Mojo so whenever I've seen the Diablo I'm always slightly disappointed that the Mojo hasn't come back because the Diablo never had as thorough destruction
@@HawkEM2 Could be related to their output impedance. The Mojo2 has 0.075 Ohms (doesn't seem like iFi has posted an official spec for the Diablo). Since a lot of the stuff Dankpods blows up are lower on the impedance range, there might be some level of mismatch, not significant since the Diablo is still a good product, but compared to the Mojo here. This can cause the power (volume) to be lower even if it has a higher output voltage. Not saying for sure, but possible
I picked up one of these a while back and discovered something fascinating while reading up on it; the EQ which you control with the flashing lights is FPGA based. That means that instead of being controlled through software, it can literally reprogram its own HARDWARE to create a lossless EQ. It's very rare to see FPGAs out in the consumer world because they're significantly more expensive but this is a really neat application of the tech!
@@MrCed122 it's 1000 Australian dollars. Here in the UK it's just under £500. It's not cheap but it's not like it's a $5000 set of headphones. I think it's fair to call it a consumer product in this context. Nonetheless, it's not the "consumer" part that makes it rare, FPGAs are typically only found in prototype and pre-production units where quick iteration is important. They allow you to essentially "program" the hardware instead of reprinting the integrated circuit every time you want to make a change.
I believe this is also how the Analogue Pocket works as well, which is *kind of* a game boy (and a bunch of other stuff) hardware emulator handheld console (I am oversimplifying it a LOT), but due to the architecture people figured out how to get it all the way up to a Super Nintendo, which is fuckin raaaaad
@@christian83182 that’s really neat, I’ve only seen them in end-user products in video games until now. And a handful of small production run industrial stuff where the turnover and opportunity cost led to them shipping FPGAs instead of waiting for the ASICs to get baked; much like 90s PC makers shipping with EEPROMs instead of mask ROMs.
It's time for a new king to carry the torch. This truly marks another new era of the Dankpod generation. From the Mojo Dynasty, to the Diablo's reign, and now the conquering of the Mojo's descendent
"Santa's riding the dragon and that's how we know it's going to be ok" - this found me in a bleak moment and raised a smile when I needed it. "On ya" dankpods as they (you) say. x
You did enough to convince me to look into my first pair of 1997 HDR 600 with Fiio BTR5 and I don't regret a thing. It's amazing. Thank you for opening the door to music heaven to me.
Was an absolute pleasure to meet and to serve you Dank, so happy to see those heaps of crap off my shelves 😂😂 surprised with how well those J.Burrows held up! Keep it up!
I love seeing you talk about something you're so passionate about. I can feel the excitement in your voice it always puts me in a good mood. I would like to see a recommendation for computer speakers at some point. Keep going what you're doing!
8:32 I had those exact headphones. They came with my laptop and boy, they stank hard. The mids were super distant. It was the biggest V curve you've ever seen (except for the Skullcandy bass boomers ofc). The mic was flat out garbage, you'd get better quality from a Logitech mic and yea. Thanks for blowing one out!
Man the hardest part of watching all of his vids is racing to turn down the volume on my phone because he's blowing up his speakers I love it lol keeps me on my toes
It shouldn’t be louder than his voice, that’s why he runs everything through a volume compressor first (also so we can hear him when he’s off in the distance). Though perhaps your phone speakers have a much higher response to higher frequencies than they do with vocals? Seems kind of contrary to the point for a phone with speakerphone etc but plenty are built that way regardless. (Okay, never mind, with my speakers even though it doesn’t sound that much louder to me, his speech is 61dB but the headphone torture is 65dB where I’m sitting. 3dB is a doubling in power, so it’s actually 2-4x as loud! I guess he has the settings have some slack on his compressor. It probably just doesn’t sound that different to me because human hearing is logarithmic rather than linear.) Edit 2: okay yeah, his speech after the headphones blowing up was at 65dB so that’s why I didn’t notice, as it was as loud as the previous segment despite being louder than the rest of his voiceover. But the speakers he blew up took it to 68-71dB so it’s still definitely louder by comparison no matter which way I slice it! Thanks for the unintended impetus to actually use my decibel meter haha
Hey Dank! Fantastic vid. That laugh when the Mojo took on those speakers was hilarious. In other news, just bought a BTR5 to go with my old KZ ZSN Pros, and it sounds fantastic. Thank you so much for the recommendation!
Hello Mr dank, I just want to thank you for getting me into another expensive hobby! I bought HD58x and dac/amp, and my ears have never heard such sounds!! Thank you and Frank for showing me the way, sincerely, My ears
8:23 oh i had one of those. they came free with my lap top . they sound tolerable but feel apart so quick. but took me trough rough times until i got the dt770pros
Man, I subbed back when you were using the mojo 1, and man was I sad to see it go. Love the Diablo, but man the mojo always felt a lil more powerful to me. Glad to see the Mojo 2 here, and can't wait to see more blown out earbuds.
We have those speakers at 11:49 in my school’s media studio. When you plug them in or turn the knobs in any capacity, they make a horrible, horrible crackling noise. Genuinely loud enough to make teachers from the other room knock and ask what that noise was. That patreon is gonna be worth it lol.
I mean this in the most positive way possible, hear me out: Dankpods is the closest we've got to the WhistlinDiesel of headphones. He doesn't just take out corporate/society's trash, he does so in a thoroughly entertaining and relatively expensive way and behind the lolz is a genuinely good guy. Mix in amazing flashbacks to crappy old nuggets, surprise unboxings, insightful reviews of new/old shite of various build qualities and costs, a bunch of other stuff I'm forgetting... Plus, we get 2 other semi-unrelated other channels, wow. Recently joined the patreon for 'jusonedollaramonthmate' Thanks for hundreds of hours of entertainment, Wade.
i had an aux splitter once. i ended up using it with the two pairs of earbuds i had, since one had a broken left side and the other had a broken right side. that was roughin it.
I have geniunely missed the Mojo, he was a huge character of early dankpods lore, which i followed since the first video! Please give us his funeral, and if he is DEAD dead, celebratory 1 grit session. Havent seen enough of 1 grit lately.
I actually managed to find a chord mojo at a bargain store near me for like 30 dollars, the battery in it had gone completely bad so trying to play music with it just didn't work at all, until I learned you can just take the battery out completely and use it as an in-line amp for home use 🤣 I still gave it to a friend because for whatever reason it would randomly destroy the audio of whatever I was listening to even at lower volumes
It's almost like the Avatar bloodline, with these amplifiers. Every time Dank gets a new amp for blowing up speakers, the old one dies, and the new one takes over the old one's role. Like how when the Avatar dies, a new one is born.
FPGA chips are expensive. There's cheaper amps with comparable performance. Recently got the ifi Hip-DAC 2 for A$270. Compared to my phone's built-in amp (ESS SABRE 9218P chip) it's a massive improvement in clarity and power. The Hip-DAC 2 uses the same Burr-Brown DSD1793 chip as the Diablo. Unlike the Diablo it can handle small IEMs, which sound better with optional XBass. Big headphones sound great too with the PowerMatch button. Punches well above its price tag IMO.
This video tought me absolutely nothing about the Chord Mojo 2. Despite this you have one more subscriber. Useful Information Passed on: 3/10 Pure Hilarity: 10/10 Cheers!
Ahhhh another golden video from you Wade. Mate if I get out of my current situation I'd love to support your chanel as a patreon and even see if I can ever meet you in Australia. You're just too much a gem of a person. Keep up the good work.

i had an aux splitter once. i ended up using it with the two pairs of earbuds i had, since one had a broken left side and the other had a broken right side. that was roughin it.
I have geniunely missed the Mojo, he was a huge character of early dankpods lore, which i followed since the first video! Please give us his funeral, and if he is DEAD dead, celebratory 1 grit session. Havent seen enough of 1 grit lately.
It's like he's a maniac scientist when he laughs 😂 you're absolutely hilarious mate keep up the good content
3:48 Dankpods warm and gooey.
it was super cool seeing him on cold ones but im also happy to see mojo back
@10:06 the birth of a supervillain laugh
Vid idea: Get a powerful a$$ speaker amp, jerry rig a 3.5mm jack onto one of the outputs and watch headphone nuggets cry for their lives
"mate, the mojo is back" best words in history
I agree.=)
I actually managed to find a chord mojo at a bargain store near me for like 30 dollars, the battery in it had gone completely bad so trying to play music with it just didn't work at all, until I learned you can just take the battery out completely and use it as an in-line amp for home use 🤣 I still gave it to a friend because for whatever reason it would randomly destroy the audio of whatever I was listening to even at lower volumes
You should start marking your amps with their confirmed kills ☠
I genuinely fear for my speakers when i watch your vids, it's great.
It's almost like the Avatar bloodline, with these amplifiers. Every time Dank gets a new amp for blowing up speakers, the old one dies, and the new one takes over the old one's role. Like how when the Avatar dies, a new one is born.
You’re amazing mate. Just watched your colab with chad and max. Love your philosophy in life. Thanks for bringing joy with your energy.
Chord Mojo finally returning: 🎵 "What'd I miss?" 🎵
this channel never fails to make me laugh. thank you, wade.
Dude, the Mojo has an insane price tag for me. It makes sense, but it's still tough lol
FPGA chips are expensive. There's cheaper amps with comparable performance. Recently got the ifi Hip-DAC 2 for A$270. Compared to my phone's built-in amp (ESS SABRE 9218P chip) it's a massive improvement in clarity and power. The Hip-DAC 2 uses the same Burr-Brown DSD1793 chip as the Diablo. Unlike the Diablo it can handle small IEMs, which sound better with optional XBass. Big headphones sound great too with the PowerMatch button. Punches well above its price tag IMO.
Honestly i know this channel is about quality sound but the best sound I hear ever is him blowing a set of head phones.makes my day every time
This video tought me absolutely nothing about the Chord Mojo 2. Despite this you have one more subscriber.
Useful Information Passed on: 3/10
Pure Hilarity: 10/10
Cheers!
7:52 first blood in the unreal tournament gold voice
Diablo: I thought you were dead
MOJO: My death was greatly exaggerated
so happy to see the mojo back in action!
Ahhhh another golden video from you Wade. Mate if I get out of my current situation I'd love to support your chanel as a patreon and even see if I can ever meet you in Australia. You're just too much a gem of a person. Keep up the good work.
So you plug the headphones into the Mojo and the Mojo into the Diablo and then you win.
