Sorry if this has already been discussed. I'm looking for some help. My X1 is not playing some (most actually) of my flac (redbook) 16/44Khz rips. It keeps saying unsupported file format. I've upgraded to 1.3fw.   I hope I won't have to re-encode my whole 128Gb Flac library on the card.  ...

  These are only my opinion & only meant to be constructive and not as criticism. Don't get me wrong the Hugo does sound very good (especialy concidering it's small size) and I thought the combination of the Alpha Dog with the Hugo, at the Essen Camjam last month, was some of the best on the...

I had the chance to listen to a Hugo Chord dac yesterday, with my own headphones and reference music. As it’s been raved about here by a nr of people, as being the “best” theye’ve Heard, etc.. , I had high expectations. I’m probably going to be shot for suggesting these, but being honest...

I’m finding SQ is significantly better using the Wasapi/ASIO a-synchronize driver and disabling Windows audio services. Unfortunately this also means APO stops working. I’d be very interested in a fix for this.  

I just wanted to thank you guys for inspiring me with this thread to make up some DIY cables for my LCD-2’s. The information you’ve provided enabled me to make these. I build one 3.5mrt balanced 4pin XLR out and one 1.3mtr to mini jack. Check the pictures, All connectors are Neutrik and the...

I just wanted to thank you guys for inspiring me with this thread to make up some DIY cables form y LCD-2’s. The information you’ve provided enabled me to make these. I've posted some pictures in the DIY Cable Gallery    

I’m missing Audio-GD options in your list. I’m currently enjoying a NFB-28 very much, which is hard to beat on price/performance,  which drive my LCD-2’s with ease. In contrast to what MalVeauX is suggesting, even though his arguments make total sense & looking at it from your perspective, you...
