i'm still mulling this over...i've not alot of experience with gear like many of you...but a colleague of mine is encouraging me to do so...he'd probably love to have a listen, too
(he once had a $70kroom system)...now has the US$1500 Wadia 122 DAC  http://www.wadia.com/en-us/products/di122
and the Auralic Aries....while I have the sonore microrendu and (incoming) uptone ultracaps LPS1 power supply
(might be interesting to also see before/after using this technology with the Hugo2, given it's a growing area)

@canali, have a look at some of the Mojo reviews. There are some very detailed ones, and there are some rather short ones. Basically you are sharing your (honest) opinion of the device with a review of what you hear and sharing information to help others know your perspective. If you've only heard a cassette player before then it would be a unique perspective to read. You don't have to get too technical either, and if you need help with some technicalities you are trying to convey then I can help you with that.
 
View a review as a way to help others decide if the gear is for them or not depending on how well you articulate your perspective. If you feel you can contribute then by all means apply!! What I don't want to see is people applying just to 'demo' the Hugo2 and then put absolutely no effort to be helpful to others with their review.

CD - Cary 303
Turntable - EMT 948
Integrated Amp - 300B (6sn7 input, 6f6g - driver) handmade by one man. I did a lot of modifications in a scheme and parts. 
Phono preamplifier -   handmade  based on EAR 834p with Thorsten & Romy the Cat modification (I have built it from scratch). Tamura step-up trans. EMT TSD15SFL, TSD15SPH cartriges.
Speakers - Altec 604E with  Werner Jagush crossovers

Great response so far!

I thank you for your patience as it may be a little while before we see the Hugo2 make it to our shores, but in the meantime I just wanted to say thanks to those that have posted already.

There's plenty of room in the tour for more!
