Does anyone know of a portable DAP that has two SD micro card slots that can be used to stack with the Chord Hugo as a transport for flac file library that has USB out? It seems that most of the players currently only have Toslink digital out and this gives inferior SQ as bit perfect input to the Chord Hugo. Ideally, a DAP that also has Wifi to stream TIDAL etc. This would be an ideal transportable setup. If the DAVE was transportable I would buy it now. The HUGO 2 to my ears sounded great at the NYC CAMJAM and more than enough power to drive the HEK V2 to loud levels with plenty of headroom. I thought this pairing was great but the DAVE is really amazing and should be for the cost.
I use an Apple iPod with Onkyo player from the App Store. With a USB adapter, it plugs straight into my Dave as a dedicated player. I would think that you can find an equivalent Android device like a cheap Sony phone that has SDcard slots. Some may have 2. All should be able to handle Tidal.
