I believe I read that Fiio were considering doing something that would plug into the Mojo so that it would be similar to having a one piece DAP?
All this talk of potential transports for the Mojo prompts me to mention the current Fiio thread, wherein their CEO, James, is contemplating manufacturing a dedicated transport.
And I must say I was amused by his comment, earlier today
Bit of a sore subject, mentioning Mojo in the Fiio transport thread
As for Fiio's proposed 'transport device', in the above thread, I wish them well with it, although I get the sense that Fiio may be getting nervous, now, about actually putting it into production
I also wonder if Chord have any intellectual property rights on the technology of the Mojo including the relevant software?
If not, I wonder how long it will take before someone tries to essentially copy the Mojo and even develop it further to make it more user friendly, etc.?
I think it's appropriate to be respectful of other manufacturers, and quietly cautious about what the future may bring, but Rob's code is the culmination of a lifes work, and would not be easy to 'fake' - at least not to the ears of a serious audiophile.
JF .... It is possible that someone might make a lookalike product but it's very unlikely that they could copy our code as its encrypted to a very high level military grade really. after all Hugo has been around for two years and we are not aware of any products claiming similar performance.
