Sorry. Just subscribed to this thread. I've been eyeing the AK300 for sometime but the AK70 has got me more interested because of the small form factor...plus cheaper price.
Anyways, something has been bothering me recently. Every dap thread I've been to, people seem to pair them with the Mojo. I don't get it. Pairing amps with daps I understand. But isn't Mojo an dac/amp? Then what is the point of buying a dap? You might as well use an iphone/android phone and pair the mojo w/ that. Wouldn't the sound still be the same?
Maybe I've got the wrong understanding on how amps/dacs/daps work and I hope someone clarifies this for me.
Anyways, will be buying the AK70 when it gets out. Believe or not, I got interested because of the mint color. Lol...it's just...different and refreshing.
Here are some post you might like to look at

Part of me wants to buy the CDM but than I heard the WA8 and it is far better. But than again I know about a release of a future amp that is aimed to fit the profile of HUGO so hence I will wait.
Looking at CDM and dp-x1 picture it is truly a pretty setup.
Hate the colour, specs look good though. If it had been a single AK4490 and NOT mint coloured i would have considered it, as it is AK300 is my upgrade path from my Jr.
How to order that case?
I really needs both
Same here awaiting both

Mmm......followed your advice and purchased the Onkyo DPX1 to pair with my CDM via usb micro to micro ic. Unfortunately, the dealer here do not have the proper IC for the Onkyo to the WA8. I'm looking for a high-quality micro to type B usb cable so I can test compatibility between the DPX1 and the WA8. Can you point me to the right direction? If it is not compatible, then I have no choice but to wait for the AK 70 to arrive.
This wouldn't work he needs mini to USB B.
The only option is to get it custom made .

Here is one that I can think of on top of my head but there are many great cable makers.
You can for now just use an otg cable and a normal USB to test it. Dpx1 works with anything I paired it with. You can play around with jitter setting of you have stuttering .
My issue with dpx1 is how UI, it isn't made for music.
