I personally really hope that every headphone company would give us two flagships, one open-back, one close-back.

Great...I'll hold on my wallet and look forward to those...actually I've been eyeing audeze EL-8...I really need a decent cans to be used in library...

Not an impression here, but on Amazon , HD 650's are only 299 now. Whoever has been waiting can make a move now...I've got mine for $410...

Hmmm...you answer reassure me no buying a Hugo TT for now...since I don't have any balanced amp any more. 

Thanks for the information. Since you mentioned Berkeley Reference DAC, I wonder the scores of the chord DACs are the results compared with Berkeley (as Berkeley being 100 on every thing)? 

How TT sounds like with high impedance headphone? Say...T1's, HD800's, or HE-6's

I mostly use my Hugo on SD USB mode at my dorm, RCA; I wonder if there is a huge difference in sound quality between Hugo TT (USB+RCA) and Hugo (USB RCA)...

I wonder how long you guys' Hugos can play with a single charge. The official site says 10 hours play time, and 12 hours operating time. Moon Audio says 12-14 hours, cnet says 12 hours. 

Are all black hugos the new version? With the new chassis?

  Yea...I also want to know the results, especially the comparison between WA8 and Cavalli portable. 

I wonder how Hugo TT sounds like, compared with separate dac+amp in the same price range. I agree what ppl said above. I'm looking forward to a Hugo 2 or Hugo plus, not a Hugo tt. IMO, although it is much smaller than most desperate dac+amp combo, it is still not portable...of course, that's why...

Oooops...sorry. Let me see if I can edit it

BTW, are you feeding the amps at CanJam with WDS-1?

WA8 looks promising. I wish I could go. But I did order a WDS-1 and a WA22 after I heard this combo at a friend's a few weeks ago. WA22, needless to say, is an amazing amp. But WDS-1 gets few reviews...I wonder why...because from what I heard, it does nothing wrong. I'm gonna compare it with my...

I wish I could go...Sigh...   Well, from you guys' posts, it seems that many audio companies are aiming at High-end portable AMPs or DAC/AMPs this year. I am also very interested in buying one, but which one? Hopefully you guys can make a comparison.
