I think of this like the Hugo, it's more "transportable" than "portable" but that is what I am looking for.

This is a beautiful device. I already start to find jackets with large pockets...😊

I am enjoying Diablo 2 and it sounds great with Diana MR.

[@user-hw4ou1og8h]

Great review! Thank you!

[@GS-nk5lb]

How do you compare sound-wise with Mojo 2? I understand that they do not have the same power but from a pure sound perspective does the Diablo 2 stand out Mojo2? Thanks

[@audio46]

I feel as though both devices serve different purposes. The Diablo 2 packs in much more performance power but the build of the device is much larger than that of the Mojo 2. The Mojo 2 still delivers great performance and the build is much more portable than the Diablo 2. I feel if you're trying to travel frequently then the Mojo 2 will be great for you but if you have only a few setups where you need to use a DAC/AMP then the Diablo 2 will be great for that scenario.

Potability stops at something the size of an audioquest dragonfly, maybe a tiny bit lager. The chord mojo is to big to be truly portable and this is definitely far to big. Transportable maybe, but not portable

[@osmosis8968]

i say portable ends at things that aren’t battery powered

[@bobhanuman65]

How does this compare to the Gryphon?

[@audio46]

I feel both devices are going to be able to keep up with most headphones you throw at it but I did really like the feature set and form factor of the Diablo 2 a bit more.
