The Mojo 2 has earned its reputation as a superb compact DAC/headphone amp, and £300 is a fair-to-good price rather than an ambitious one. Against 101 comparable listings, it sits above the £276 median but below the £324 75th percentile; it is not a bargain, yet it remains sensibly priced for a desirable example.
Its strengths are genuine: clean, engaging conversion, plenty of drive, broad digital connectivity, and useful lossless tone controls and crossfeed. Battery management is better than the original Mojo, and it works equally well as a portable or desktop unit. At this price, condition and completeness matter more than chasing a discount—check battery behaviour, controls, sockets, charger and any supplied cables. If those are sound, £300 is a reasonable enthusiast buy, particularly for someone wanting a proven all-in-one headphone solution.

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.
