    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    I think Rob Watts had previously posted his opinions on adding a LPS to the TT2 . They do change the sound, albeit not necessarily in a positive manner: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/hugo-tt-2-by-chord-electronics-the-official-thread.879425/page-653#post-15718333 Nothing against those who...

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    Hi, I'm running my headphones from the back outputs of my TT2. Just wanted to ask, for those running off the back outputs, do you use high or low gain? I'm assuming high gain is generally better (1 resistor less in the chain) but it's abit scary with so much power into the headphones. Also...

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    I don't own a voltmeter but it seems a good idea to pick up one. The issue occurs through my speakers, as well as when using headphones. If it helps, the issue occurs in the left channel when swapping the cables around - thus I think it may not be the cable's issue.

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    When using the XLR outputs off the back, my TT2 has developed loud pops in the right channel when turning on/off and some channel imbalance (the right side sounds softer. Just to check if anyone faced this issue before? I think it may be time to send it back sigh

    FiiO X7 Mk II 2GB RAM + 64GB ROM + ESS9028 PRO + Balanced + DSD + BT 4.1 aptX + Dual mSD + Dual Band WiFi + Opt Out

    Anyone finds it weird how the Fiio X7 + K5 bundle costs more than buying it individually? =P

    Gustard A20H DAC (Dual AK4497EQ, analog preamp, headphone amp, all in one)

    Not sure if it can be done for biamping, but you can use the rca and XLR outputs together.

    I'm glad that suggestion worked and that it all worked out for you. One more thing to note: You should double check with them if they would allow for your friend to drop off personally. it's stated on their page that "所有送修只接受快递/邮递方式,不设开放接待" which translates to "All repairs are to be sent by...

    Sorry to hear that. You can try contacting them through taobao, I find that he is rather responsive and I get responses within hours.

    That would be a weird warranty policy to have, and I would think it is a translation error typical of those not too used to English. Their warranty policy in Chinese (extracted from the Chinese manual) is as follows: GUSTARD 承诺旗下A20H 产品自购买之日算起享受2 年的免费保修服务,终身维护。 购买之日起15 日内给予返厂换新服务(机身无划痕),1...

    Cavalli Audio's Liquid Carbon Owners Impressions

    Those specs refer to the power output, not the power draw of the amp. For an accurate figure, best to measure if you are concerned, different volume/gain levels may result in different power draw too. For a rough gauge, the manual states "The Liquid Carbon dissipates about 8W of power". Should...

    Perhaps you could try out different outputs and inputs to further pinpoint where the problem lies? (eg. The line out or the SE output). Warranty wise, you might want to contact the dealer whom you bought it from. Gustard is pretty responsive to queries in my experience but the language barrier...

    I just ordered one of these off Taobao using a forwarder (cheaper than shenzhenaudio by quite a bit, especially where I live) Looking forward to when it arrives. =D
