very portable.

Yes , with both portability + high quality music . absolutely No BS

This would be my first ever portable dac or amp. My primary concern is with actually getting the most out of the ASG 2.5, but is there any other top-tier options that would have a smaller footprint? I still haven't figured out how I'm going to carry this thing around!

Arrow all day

Only downside with the arrows is , infinite waiting time for it to arrive at the doorstep . Only 399usd if not mind the wait .
But if you're someone whom is not patience enough , or currently doesn't has a substitute for the time being for you to enjoy while waiting for the arrows to come knocking .
Go get yourself a ready made ones ,

I got to admit , as much as I would like to place the order of those arrows , the infinite waiting is the reason why I choose to go with the mojo , but then again , very soon the arrows will be the next in the list purchase after the acquisitions the rest of my wtb stuff .

Forgive my lack of search skills, but have you posted a review comparing the performance of the ASG 2.5 with the Mojo vs the E5?

No I didn't have the audiophile standards required do comparison .
But I can tell you wirh honestly , I very much enjoyed the 2.5 with the E5 + mobile phone . I didn't had the chance to connect my mobile to mojo to do a direct comparison between the 2 , cos my mobile are not able to Audio out via usb to the mojo , so I wouldn't know the real sound of the mojo paring up with my mobile .
But I fully enjoy the music out of the 2.5 + E5 ,
For me personally , both 2.5 and E5 is like make for each other, very satisfying

Are you happy with the Hugo mate?

Are you happy with the Hugo mate? 

Sound wise yes, bigger stage, greater details, deeper bass than anything I had that can be held in hand. Very good blue tooth but the volume wheel is meh. BTW I do use EQ.

Glad to hear.
 
Great soundstage width is important, you can have a DAP or DAC that sounds amazing in detail and every technical aspect, though if the stage is narrow beyond a certain extent it ruins the experience for me. And I've found its a grey area that doesn't always equate to the more expensive player having a wider stage. Quite a random thing.

I cant disagree with you. I demoed a few amps and amp/dacs that sounded good but not great. Some just wasnt good enough to buy, others were small, very portable but soundwise were not a big improvement over a dap I had. Now lets see how I deal with its size. As of now the sound is worth the effort.
