Thanks Expat_Mike. I had read about adjusting it but didn't know whether I had to or not.
I have not bought this yet but am seriously considering it. Every review seems positive but mostly they talk about using it as a headphone amp. If I buy it, it would be mainly as a hifi dac, so trying to get as much information as possible. I do know there are thousands of dacs at similar prices that are more convenient as a hifi dac, but this one seems to be the most respected one
It is not compulsary to adjust the output voltage - but you have the opportunity if you need it. Twenty or thirty years ago, virtually every amp seemed to align with the 2V input voltage. Nowadays it seems that such standardisation has disappeared, and different amp manufacturers quote different input voltages for their amps. So if you do buy a mojo, then just adjust the 3V to whatever voltage suits your amplifier.
Most of the early posts/reviews were understandably about using the Mojo as a headphone amp/dac. Then gradually people explored using the Mojo as a desktop dac, and now you do read quite a few people saying that they use the Mojo only as a desktop dac.
Myself, I originally bought the Mojo to use during my commute, and was enjoying it. However my commute has now changed, so my mojo is mainly used when I am working on my desktop (sometimes direct through headphones, but sometimes to feed my Arcam solo and listen through speakers).
I like the flexibility that the Mojo provides, but am considering getting a dac (eg second hand hugo, or maybe 2qute) to leave permanently connected to the arcam, and free the Mojo for my occasional mobile use.
