And, to add to my post above, what would you folks say about the 'typical Japanese audiophile' who carries a stack of at least three devices or upwards in his/ her portable stack? I recently saw on the Fujiya Avic pics a gentleman traveling with a seven device stack!

I would say "what are the 4 devices after the player, DAC and amp? Is one of them a bomb?"

That could be answered by this Japanese gentleman I was referring to!

kinda crazy? lol...

You know, the question of carrying multiple devices is a good one.  The Mojo is really something special; but using it is kind of a pain in the rear with anything but a FIIO.  I mean reliable operation with an iphone was pretty iffy, and use as a computer DAC was OK but not great.  It was rock solid with the X3 (both generations) as a transport.
 
I do hope the T3 sounds good on its own.  Or that maybe there is a T5 with better DAC and AMP sections.  I do prefer an all in one.

@Joe Bloggs I laugh hard at that one
@OriginalSnuffy Fiio already has X series for that "all in one"... A transport will demand a companion device for it to shows its strength.

 

[originalsnuffy]

I am trying to prod FIIO into taking the T3 and adding a few features as the next X series candidate.

I would absolutely love to have a nice transport of which the focus would be UI, fits as much music as possible on and small in size so it's easy to stack with a portable dac/amp

If I could use my phone to control playback, song selection ect. That would be amazing!

I think you are missing the point of a portable transport.

Why would you want to use a phone when you already have a transport in your hand?

 

[CobraVerde]

That's the thing I don't want it to be in my hand. Who really wants to carry a stack in their hand all day?

The transport has to be connected to some thing and even if it's connected mojo it's still gonna be to big to be pocketable or used comfortably in the hand. As it stands now I have my dac (Hugo) and transport (AK120) in my bag and it's a massive pain to change songs.

If I could have all the files on the T3 and have it connected to my DAC, use my phone as a remote UI would mean I would be a lot less hassle.

In a nut shell it would be great to use the phone like people use smart watches to control their music.

I think what you have in mind is something along the lines of RPi:

Hoping for these:
 
pls make the design look more attractive yet simple. from the picture it looks like a hard aluminum dap as the others. make it something unique.
make sure its light in weight so it would be easier to carry it on mobile.
battery must be good within 10hours time.
UI functions very well before you release it.
