Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
I do remember I had to change a setting in Roon for it to sound good over wireless and I think it was to have the end point render and decode (maybe it was the opposite but I think this was it) but I'd agree that if you can get wired or a bridge like this to sound as good or better than wireless...- Karnicopia

Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
I also think streamers make a huge difference but a great way to get really good sound reasonably is the Pi2AES and I do the battery power and power the PC and audio board using different batteries and then I used optical to keep things isolated. I did notice a significant improvement powering...- Karnicopia

Summit-Fi Random Thoughts
I just wanted to say that meditation really helps with this over thinking. It's almost like our brain just builds up a backlog of broken thoughts throughout the day (or even weeks and months) and they build up and build up and when you meditate it's kind of like clearing all of that crap out...- Karnicopia

I'm curious what are people's impression of the bass? I think there are two areas of frequency I'm most interested in is if the low end is similar to the AC vs AO and tuned with more low end or if it is still pretty even frequency response like the CO. The second is I think even high end without...- Karnicopia

2359glenn | studio
That's a really good description of how it felt and during the time it felt like the Hugo 2 was great and it did get me through the year well but man hooking up the GOTL was something else entirely and I instantly felt how much I've missed it. The only headphones I have that I prefer off SS is...- Karnicopia

It's been about a year since I could listen to my Glenn because I was doing some restorations and moving and I was able to listen to it this week and it really blew me away how great the sound was. I had my entire desktop setup packed up and was mainly surviving off of the Hugo 2 and over the...- Karnicopia

Diana: the second release by Abyss Headphones!
I'll just second that the MZ3 is amazing with the Dianna V2 and there was a used one on here that may still be posted and that is great value. I think all Abyss sounds good off of clean tube amps because the drivers are so fast the tubes add a nice touch of decay to round out notes and that MZ3...- Karnicopia

ZMF November // 2023 // MEGATHREAD!
Thanks I appreciate it! Thanks the edges where the cup changes shape weren't pictured too much when I purchased them but they are my favorite parts and you are right the edges look almost organic. Thanks NIN sound great on ZMF in general they go together well and Caldera's are I think still...- Karnicopia

ZMF November // 2023 // MEGATHREAD!
My AC came in today (Altin), these resonated with me because they reminded me of mountains and when they came I love how the light reflects as you change the angle. Also really like the bottom but they are the toughest to photograph I did my best while I was able to keep them off my head...- Karnicopia

Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
I think what I would do is just wait for the HP and listen to it out of single ended and then get a cheap adapter (meaning not expensive materials but you should make sure it is wired correctly for TT2) to listen to dual XLR out of the back so you can compare before spending a lot of money. If...- Karnicopia

ZMF Verite Open
Something definitely sounds wrong to me people are going to vibe with headphones differently and I think that is totally fine our ears are all shaped differently and there are highly regarded headphones that I am not a big fan of but some of the things that are being said just sound so far off...- Karnicopia
