Best in-ears For Chord Hugo
Figured it's worth a separate thread. To anyone who has compared different in-ears on the Hugo, which have you found to sound best and extract most of what the Hugo has to offer? Been listening to the Hugo mainly as DAC in my hifi system and god is it good! When listening via the JH16's I...- jdebonth

Thanks, how are you guys connecting the iPhone? Not Bluetooth I take it? Via the apple camera connection kit? Is there a dedicated lightning to micro usb cable available?- jdebonth

Can anyone comment on the sound of the X5 compared to the Hugo (driven by an iPhone 6) with IEMs? I guess the Hugo has a better DAC and amp section, just wondering if the iPhone as a digital source drops the performance of the Hugo below that of the X5?- jdebonth

Thanks all for the input so far. I am still torn between the JH13,16 and miracle. The JH16Pro/JH3a combo would be excellent but this would mean carrying 3 bricks around if I want to feed the JH3a digital which I would want to do. It's important for the setup to be portable. The great...- jdebonth

Dear head-fi community, My first post here. I am looking for my first and last pair of custom IEMs that I will enjoy for the next 5+ years. Cost or manufacturer location are not constraints. Unfortunately I do not have the opportunity to listen and will rely purely on your...- jdebonth
