Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
The TT2 have more than sufficient power, especially if using XLR out, compared to the AHB2 it is smoother and silkier while the AHB2 is a little better in the dynamics and slightly tighter and a bit more prominent bottom end, I have settled on the HMS + TT2 as my daily drive for the Susvaras and...- Widell

HiFiMan Susvara
On a diiferent note than the endless amp dac pairing, no offense, but could anyone pitch in on a comparison between Yamaha YH-5000SE VS Susvara, are they a contender, anyone who have listened to them side by side?- Widell

Hi Rob, thank you firstly for beeing active on this forum, think I speak for everyone that this is much appreciated, So if I understand correctly no additional benefit for the TT2 to have a powerbank compared to the SMPS that it comes with and only the Mscaler benefit with a powerbank? 2. And...- Widell

Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
Oh no, Rob did not recommend, he actually thought that the Kef's would be to hard to drive, though he said never to use XLR out for passive speakers and to only use SE or RCA, please fact check if you like, its here on head fi, you can search on my previous discussion's or on the Rob Watts...- Widell

Please dont use TT2 with passive speakers through XLR, use RCA or the front SE , guidelines direct from Rob Watts, I use same with my KEF LS50 gen 1(passive) via SE and it sounds fantastic in my small office 14m2.- Widell

Dan Clark Audio Stealth Review, Interview, Measurements
Yes, fantastic on both Stealth and Susvara but i was also surprised how well the airpods pro 2 sound with this! (maybe a tad bass emphasized and not top clarity...but what a heck), Just imagine where we will be in 20 years of headphone and music production progress....hope to be alive to...- Widell

HiFiMan Susvara
I have and do use the HE-Adapter when connected to my AHB2, never noticed any sound degradation at all, in fact it was if it was not even there, this with both with Susvara's and Stealth, no difference. I was actually wondering what it actually does and how it would protect the HP's but as it...- Widell

Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
Don't use XLR for Speakers, Rob Watts told me not to, I use with great success a pair of Kef LS50 gen 1 which are hard to drive but they sound excellent with the TT2 (small office though abt 14m2), I use the SE output for the speakers with an adapter, you can also use the RCA if you like too...- Widell
