This is a seller’s-leaning market for this model right now, and A$372 is ambitious against your AUD comps: it sits just above the A$371 75th percentile and well above the A$238 median. For a used Mojo Gen 1, that means the asking price is at the top end of the recent market rather than a bargain.
What makes it appealing is the Mojo’s reputation: it’s a compact, genuinely high-performing DAC/headphone amp that still punches above its size, with the kind of clean, powerful drive many listeners buy it for. If the unit is clean, fully functional, and includes the original cable/accessories, it can still be a worthwhile buy for someone who specifically wants that sound and form factor; just don’t expect a value play at this price.
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.
