OK, some initial results
Listening to 2Qute right now over USB into my Almarro monoblocks. The source is a raspberry pi 2 running Volumio (Highly recommended - they sound great and, as the 2Qute doesn't draw any power from the USB, well up to the task).
...and the results are excellent. I'm going to stick my neck out and say, yes, ever so slightly better than the Hugo.
There is more control all around (even using the wal-mart power supply) with the real bottom-end bass slightly extended and better sounding.
So apart from the awful switch (sorry Mr Watts), and the black finish on the top - which might be cleanable, I am very happy.
So far, and I can't imagine why this would change, it sounds really awesome.
Above and beyond sound quality the cable arrangement is far better for a home system.
So does the black finish on yours not look like the pics in the link RubyTiger provided?
