Tried the LCD4 rev1 with these. The hugo2 made me think whether i even need my desktop rig anymore. Very nice.
Its not just galvanic isolation and of course everything is controlled. I am not alone in this observation. For that matter ch2 is better with the server but it isn't no TT.Concerning the early comparisons of H2 and TT it would be interesting which Input was used.
I could imagine the described advantages of TT might be due to galvanic isolation, since there were posts talking favorable about H2 and Iso Regen and other isolators.
If desired advantages were heard vial USB it would be interesting how this behaves via optical.
The source should also be taken in account, since a dedicated music server is likely more capable than a mobile phone to deliver a low noise signal.

Are you sure Hong Kong will be receiving the first shipment in a day or two, I called up the local dealer ECT this afternoon and they had no clues on the shipment whatsoever.Glad to see how much you and everyone are enjoying the music with their Hugos.

Are you from HK?
I'm not sure. That's all my dealer told me. I hope it's true, keep checking with your dealer.Are you sure Hong Kong will be receiving the first shipment in a day or two, I called up the local dealer ECT this afternoon and they had no clues on the shipment whatsoever.
I compared the TT n hugo2 few weeks ago, the only thing TT is better at is power and XLRConcerning the early comparisons of H2 and TT it would be interesting which Input was used.

Actually, the TT has less power. The myth that 'better' sound is only from more power continues....
Even if one device had more max power, if listening to the same headphone at the same volume then both source gear will provide the same power output to that load... regardless of the max power spec, and typically the actual output is far less than the max power spec for most users listening levels.
Well the extra headroom could come handy if u use stuffs like he6 or susvara
As per my observation it is positive the TT could get em to louder levels vs the H2. I didnt claim it to sound better tho. In fact i liked the H2 more with almost all stuffs i triedThere's always going to be some outliers, of course, but without mentioning specific headphones it's just generalizations. The point was that the OP perceived the TT as 'better' at power with no further description, which isn't true in this specific case.
the louder levels is an illusion, what TT does and always has is have a darker signature with more bass impact and slam, and i perceive this gives it a more depth. While i have no doubt the ch2 has a more refine detail and smoother presentation that may be more to ones liking, i know from pm discussions that I'm not alone in my TT observations.As per my observation it is positive the TT could get em to louder levels vs the H2.

Ain't it possible that with people's fixation on galvanic isolation, that they're forgetting the super capacitors (transiant power reserves) in the TT, that might give better amplification? Never heard a TT 'till the video above; just wondering.Its not just galvanic isolation and of course everything is controlled. I am not alone in this observation. For that matter ch2 is better with the server but it isn't no TT.
CH2 will make a fine desktop as did ch1 tho. Its certainly a better portable
