32ohm : 1.1W, nice!!!!!!

are you referring to this one? it got reviewed yesterday, very highly scored 9.9, for a audiophile motherboard, its up there with the top gaming boards as well, might considering getting this to compliment my hugo.

my usb ports on my asus sabertooth z77 mobo have always been disappointing, so i bought a PCIe USB card and it works well with most USB dacs(except tenor) i've owned in the past, including the hugo, i recently started using the toslink port on the mentioned mobo and have never looked back, there...

i recognise 'bass mekanik - night bass' anywhere quickest way to get tinnitus tho

bump. question. my motherboard(z77 sabertooth) has a toslink optical output, i've disabled this option in replace for USB dac's in the past, as we all know onboard sound is utter rubbish. i've recently enabled onboard audio again so that i can use the toslink option, all this talk of optical...

heres my first impressions, using TH900 for a sensitive headphone like the TH900, i was worried about hiss, thankfully there is none that i can detect...phew. audio quality is very clean, i find it reminds me of the Yulong DA8, smooth and clean soooo effortlessly. usb implementation is top...

just received my hugo, noticed the RCA are crooked, its charging now, so have yet to hear how it sounds i also tried plugging in the supplied USB cable, it only seems to plug in half way, before the metal casing gets in the way, is this normal?

@ audionewbi what kind of accessories did yours come with? i'm still waiting for Australian stock to arrive as well, I wasn't able to find the Hugo anywhere for sale.

i'm part of the club, yay me!!! will get it next week, hopefully.

62.9 kg 83.8 kg 101.6 kg

so the higher the bitdepth and samplerate, the lower the delay/lag?

my tablet also suffers from this, if i leave the power cord in, the charging can't keep up with how much the device itself consumes, it loses about 2% per hour, eventually the device will power off. bit concerning this also happens with the hugo, any way to address this?

interesting chip the Atmel ATSAM3U1C, i was finally able to see the insides from a couple recent pictures posted here.

thank you again heat is acceptable, a little outside of the manuals safe operating temperature, where i'm from can get up to 113F ambient. perhaps these clicks can be removed with a firmware upgrade?

excellent reply, thank you, answered alot of questions for me, you've given me alot to consider. was wondering if you could expand further a few points for me, does the HA-1 click when changing from 44.1k to 48k, or 96k files? i'm guessing this isn't the case as the files themselves will be...

would like to know if the HA-1 has a audible click sound originating from the device itself when no signal has passed through it for a short period of time, also known as standby(not the kind where its sleeping). or even if its operation is silent, does it take half a second for the signal to...

a snip from project86's review of the TAURUS MKII, i think this applies to the HA-1 as well.

ty for the quick impression can you detect any kind of hiss with your IEM's? thats why i love my V200, no hiss

i know australia has special trade deals with new zealand, china, singapore, hong kong, and now japan, which allows certain leeway regarding to taxes imposed on importing stuff, the question us aussies always ask, where does the extra inflation come from, apple is one of the big offenders on...

i'm not very good with conveying what i hear, but most of what project86 has said about the DA8 and HD i agree with, both are highly transparent, but what i distinctively remember about comparing the two, was the DA8 was wide and smooth, changing over to the HD felt boxed in. what i didn't like...

i'll answer since i had direct experience between the two Yulong DA8 DAC only is far superior to the Concero HD, the soundstage of the DA8 is amazingly wide, i'd play tracks where I thought instruments were coming from behind me 5 meters away, then i'd play the same track with the Concero HD...

in Australia its $1800!!!! :blink: google tells me 1200USD = 1296AUD, wheres the $500 markup come from? its cheaper to purchase it overseas, i bet hong kong retailers have the HA-1 for half the price, anyway stock is expected mid may here, i don't know about the rest of the world.
