What if... it's a SD card module with streaming and control support from your phone
 
(gasp)

They said it's the "dawn of a new era". That should be something new.

"Collaborative R&D", so it seems they're products outside their current expertise.

Perhaps headphones/speakers or maybe a new breakthrough amp.

In a way I do hope that they don't create something revolutionary!
 
My new year resolution was to dial in my spending and enjoy what I've got with some minor tweaking (e.g. new ear pads, opamp, tubes) rather than lusting after the latest products with 5 star reviews.
 
I'm already wavering and have mentally extended that list to include a cheap transport for the mojo and perhaps a pair of $200 iems.
 
Chances are that this resolution will be complete broken on 5 Jan!

Cheapest transport available for Mojo is Hidizs AP60 ($80) ! 
I am using it now, previously i used to use my Oneolus one phone with UAPP as transport !

Yeap, been following that thread now that USB output has been added and also the Shanling M1 thread.
Must stay strong and focused and keep my credit card out of sight!

I own the Hugo & mojo which are both excellent.
 
Very interested to see what comes out tomorrow evening.
 
3 new products is 2 more than I would have expected UNLESS its one product with three separate functions. Now there's a thought!
