Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
As you can see from my previous posts, I have some experience with the “clicking” issues and use of batteries. When the clicking started, I could use my 12 volt battery to initialize the TT2 and move past the clicking. Eventually, even the battery wouldn’t work reliably, likely indicating the...- Gadget67

Yes, it is a silver dragon. Here is a picture shamelessly stolen from @Orlok.- Gadget67

I happen to know he ordered from Moon Audio. It won’t appear on their site; you will have to call and they will take care of you.- Gadget67

Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
It appears that every manufacturer is experiencing supply chain issues, elevated shipping/distribution costs, Covid problems (still) and the upcoming holiday season already sounds like a nightmare. I guess a cost increase shouldn’t be a surprise. Glad I purchased my Chord gear last year!- Gadget67

Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
The TT2 still shows at $5495 at Moon Audio (one of our sponsors) and the M-Scaler is $4795 so apparently there hasn’t (yet) been an increase in the US.- Gadget67

Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
You can bet their lawyers are never going to let them put out the full story. For what it’s worth no one told me what the problem was but an earlier post from @Rob Watts identified the two likely causes as either a faulty PSU (mine is fine) or the inrush limiter. Chord is (wisely) treating...- Gadget67

Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
I was curious about the warranty confusion. I’m sure (I think!!!) that the TT2 warranty is three years but the general warranty statement on their web site says, in part: “The length of the warranty can be found on each product’s partnering webpage. Typically for accessories, it is 30 days...- Gadget67

Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
I understand your reticence to try another TT2. Mine experienced the failure to initiate/clicking problem a couple of months ago. Since it’s basically the heart of my small system I was reluctant to send it in and be without it for some unknown amount of time. I was able to get the TT2 to go...- Gadget67

The JPS Labs: Abyss AB-1266 Impressions Thread
Seems to be the case, though I’m happy to see Audeze release a new headphone. I’m still outrageously happy with my Abyss but of course I’d be curious to listen to the Audeze at some point. For now I’m just addicted to the ability to make minor adjustments on the fly with the Abyss as I’m...- Gadget67

Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
I own the LCD-X so I can’t answer specifically about the LCD-4. The Abyss is clearly better than the LCD-X and is more comfortable to wear and use for me. Perhaps someone else can chime in about the LCD-4.- Gadget67
