    I borrowed a phone with a very recent IOS 9.x which meets the required specs on Apple's site and still no luck. Will try the USB with my PC tonight. I suspect I got a bum CCK.

    It was the USB cable. I picked up the included Chord USB cable from @thegunner100 today and it worked fine. Weird because I tried several of my own that seemed to fit - and which did charge the mojo when plugged into that Usb slot - but none worked. Anyway enjoying the Mojo quite a bit now.

    Weird, evil USB cable. I guess you'll be throwing that one out to avoid being sabotaged in future. I had a bit of a purge of doubtful USB cables, and grabbed one of little boxes o' cables:

    Handy to have kicking about!

    Anyway, great that you're up and running now. Have you tried the Mojo with your favourite IEMs? It seems to really shine driving those directly, be interesting to hear what you think (sorry, I am just nosy).

    Yeah I had suspected it was the USB cable. I'm not sure what makes that chord usb cable so special though. It's just a normal USB A to Micro USB =/

    Might it be more that the one Colgin was using was faulty? I've never used the Chord cable (it's still in the box), and have used the Mojo with a crazy variety of USB cables of different ages and states of disrepair, without problems (including sometimes plugged into the CCK). I've never actually noticed my Mojo being all that picky.

    Maybe it has to do with the length? The chord one is really short.

    Maybe, but I have used really long and really short USB cables without issue. Occam's razor suggests that the non-working cable might be in some way non-compliant, perhaps?

    5 days (till Monday), send to @Wfojas.

    I believe after that we're all done so please send back to @Marvey.

    Yep. @Wfojas you're on the WC, right? Hope you don't mind mind getting bumped a week? I think @Ryu is on the E.C so it probably makes sense to send to @take first, who'll then send it on to you.

    I think I want to hear this thing :)

    I can get it last. @Marvey and I can meet up sometime and I can hand it over to him.

    Funny, as I've never participated in any of these cool loaner programs.

    Is that ok @sphinxvc ?

    Maybe I should get it before @Wfojas . He probably wants to come hear some vinyl. He can collect it from me then.
