£210 is above the usual used range here, so it reads as ambitious rather than a bargain.
Against your own comps, it sits just above the 75th percentile at £201, with the median at £138 and the 25th percentile at £120. That means it’s not wildly out of line, but it is priced at the top end of the recent market for this model.
The Mojo Gen 1 is still well regarded for its strong DAC performance, compact battery-powered design, and genuinely punchy headphone output, so there is real appeal if you want a small all-in-one unit. At £210, the value depends on condition and completeness: original box, cables, and a healthy battery would help justify it, while any battery wear or missing accessories would make it harder to recommend.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Chord Electronics, a British high-fidelity powerhouse, traces its roots to the aviation industry. Founded in 1989 by John Franks, a former Marconi Avionics engineer, the company emerged from his early 1980s innovations in ultra-reliable, high-frequency switching power supplies for aircraft electronics. Initially too costly for commercial viability, the designs became feasible with advancing components, launching Chord from its Kent headquarters in a renovated pumphouse that remains its manufacturing heart.
The brand excels in premium amplifiers and digital-to-analog converters (DACs), blending Franks' analog prowess with digital expertise from FPGA specialist Rob Watts. Early power amplifiers quickly won acclaim from professional studios like the BBC, Abbey Road, and Skywalker Sound, establishing credibility before shifting focus to consumer hi-fi. Iconic products like the Hugo and Mojo DACs exemplify their boundary-pushing approach, alongside integrated amps and streamers, all handcrafted in the UK without compromise on power, precision, or musicality.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Chord commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its uncompromising engineering, aerospace-grade reliability, and bold innovation. Independent and proudly British, it sets benchmarks in transparency and dynamics, attracting buyers who demand reference-level performance over mass-market concessions.
