Chord Electronics - Hugo 2 - The Official Thread
Lol! Quoting my old post. You can definitely leave a message in your order asking them to flip the connector for you, since the entire battery pack was custom built. Here are two comprehensive measurements of 18650 batteries. MJ1 really is a solid choice for low amp usage...- Edric Li

The Enleum HPA-23RM Discussion Thread
The fact that they put 3.5mm on the voltage out is just dumb. Discourages people from plugging in full size headphones into the voltage out for no reason. I can't imagine anyone buying this and using a 1/8-to-1/4 adapter to listen to headphones, even if the voltage out indeed works better for them.- Edric Li

The Enleum HPA-23RM Discussion Thread
Two things went wrong, not your fault but how finicky this thing is. 1) Shouldn't have used the line out. I'm surprised you didn't hear distortion with the line out. Instead, turn the Hugo 2 volume to half-ish (around green). 2) Try the voltage out. To my ears the voltage out is a pretty...- Edric Li

The Enleum HPA-23RM Discussion Thread
It seems that the Hugo 2 and the 23RM can be connected by the shortest RCA cable (if you can call it that) in the world by somehow connecting these Switchcraft angled RCA connectors directly. Suggestions are welcomed... https://www.switchcraft.com/assets/1/24/3502RA_SERIES_CD.pdf- Edric Li

I got it and sold it half a year ago https://www.head-fi.org/classifieds/four-4-intime-iems.55558/ Nothing special about it, really. It's similar to the Sora Light Unique Bass.- Edric Li

CanJam SoCal 2023 Impressions Thread
Unless one's ear canal is acoustically identical to 711, the dip will not compensate the frequency of the standing wave exactly. And now you get a dip next to a peak, which sounds more peaky than the peak by itself. In my audition of the Storm, when I complained about the treble glare, I was...- Edric Li

Best IEM tips?
It is an assortment of sizes. The smaller/thinner ones, besides being placed at the end of the nozzle in the normal way, are often used to deep-fit a wider-bore eartip onto a narrower IEM nozzle, by placing them inside of the eartip bore but behind the tip of the IEM nozzle. Very specific, I...- Edric Li

Love to see Asian dudes chasing their dreams. Taking care of your local musicians' monitoring needs is a great way to have a long term success in this business. Some of the biggest IEM names in Asia started this way.- Edric Li
