    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    Me: Bluesound Vault 2I optical into HMS, dual coax into TT2, into Arya 2021SE or B&W P9s depending upon mood and others in the listening room. Pretty dang good for me. I’m curious about DCA ‘phones but we shall see :)

    Just a quick thanks and thumbs-up from a UK based Poly user to the Chord Service dept. They fixed a USB issue, upgraded the firmware, replaced the battery, and returned my unit via DHL Express for a very reasonable amount. I’m very glad to have it back and it’s working perfectly.

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    Nope, I’m thinking that I want to use TT2 in AMP mode with Low Gain set, so the TT2 acts as preamp. I don’t want to find/trial/use anything else in the chain that might colour the sound in some other way. If anyone has tried that with the SCM19A I’d be interested to hear about it.

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    I know this is a head-Fi forum and all, but has anyone any experience of using TT2 with ATC SCM19A active speakers? I’m curious if the pairing is a good match with each other. I have had my TT2 for a while now and enjoy it with Arya V2 headphones, but I’m looking to modernise and simplify my...

    Chord 2Go & 2Yu Wired/Wireless Network streamer and S/PDIF adaptor - Official thread

    Do you have the latest version of the Gofigure app? For iOS it’s ver 2.10. Could you be connecting via Bluetooth? If so, the factory default PIN is 0000.

    Watts Up...?

    Ah, my bad :) I was mixing up that name with Hildegard Von Blingin’ - a YouTube sensation with a truly amazing voice, even with the limited audio quality available.

    Watts Up...?

    Hildegard Von Bingen - what a voice! Even in the ‘Bardcore’, more fun type of songs that she’s recorded that voice is clear with good range and great diction and enunciation.

    Chord Mojo(1) DAC-amp ☆★►FAQ in 3rd post!◄★☆

    In my case, with a limited budget but with a love of Prog, I bought a pair of Campfire Audio Honeydew IEMs. I wanted some IEMs that would present the low end bass well while having a reasonably well controlled treble response, and they seem to present that well when matched with my Mojo/Poly.

    Can you re-synch in your UPnP app? It certainly seems to help in Glider.

    I’ve updated mine, finally. All seems well so far - I generally use Glider to playback from the SD card - but it seems that the internet radio functionality isn’t working for me now. I know the BBC default streams are no longer available anyway (thanks to the BBC!), but my user-defined radio...

    Chord Electronics ☆ Poly ☆ (wireless & microSD module for Mojo) ☆★►USEFUL INFO on 1st PAGE!!◄★☆

    I hate to point this out, but if Chord can’t get their servers working for a supposedly new Poly and other 2GO FW downloads - see previous posts in this thread - then it seems quite likely that the same server would be holding the 2.04 FW download that @hpheaven ’s device is looking for. As...

    I have a Poly (connected with a Mojo) with f/w version 2.04, and I use Gofigure (latest ver) and Glider (last version in App Store) for controlling SD playback on an iPhone 12 Pro, running iOS 14.8 at the moment. In the Poly I use a decent quality 128GB microSD card, and play mainly from that...

    The way things are going the new code for Poly could easily be outdated by changes/updates at Spotify for example, before we can get it installed. If Chord’s hosting company is so slow to respond to requests from Chord, then perhaps Chord should be looking at other hosting companies? I...

    I just asked again 4 months after my last enquiry, and got the same answer about servers and Amazon half an hour ago: “I'm sorry for the delay. At the moment, we cannot update either Poly or 2Go. We have no choice but to wait for our hosting company to make the required alterations as they are...

    Bowers&Wilkins new flagship the P9!

    Hmmm, well yeah. At getting on for £3000 a pair it would be pretty unnerving if the Stellias couldn’t give a step up! :) I think the P9s will do for now, but I agree that some vocals can be a bit edgy depending upon the other equipment used. I will stick with the Mojo-Poly and TT2 and try to...

    Bowers&Wilkins new flagship the P9!

    I love mine. I listen to a lot of prog rock, and it includes a fair bit of deep bass from long necked basses and pedals etc. The P9s reach right down there and give me what I want, along with a clear and controlled top end. For outdoor use, and in looking for a similar sound signature, I bought...

    Hopefully they mean “final, final, final test” !! I got much the same response exactly a month ago. And there have been TWO firmware releases for the 2GO since then…. Fingers crossed eh?

    Seems to work ok to me. The initial connection is quicker if anything, but it does take a while to download whatever data it needs to run. Perhaps have your iPhone/iPad near or on a line with the black plastic antenna window of the Poly? I’m using the Poly on 2.04 firmware, and an iPhone 12 on...

    Comment by 'bobnewboy' in item 'Campfire Audio Honeydew'

    Got myself a pair last week. They are my first ‘proper’ IEMs, so I’ve been playing with the tip fittings and ear fitment. So far with only a few hours listening through them I’m really enjoying them :). I was looking for a pair of IEMs to wear in bed at night for quiet listening sessions which...

    I don’t know for sure, but hopefully it will include the additional functionality which was delivered for the 2GO; well, at least the parts that are possible in the Poly hardware. See the 2GO release notification: 2GO release notes

    Hi All, I had a go at chasing Chord up regarding the very overdue firmware update for Poly. The reply I received was: ———————————————— Dear Sir, thanks for your email. I'm sorry for the delay on this. Two members of the software team have been out of action but everyone is back in harness and...

    Well, in the release information for the latest version of Gofigure, Chord stated: “ This update will align the application with 2go’s new firmware update arriving on Tuesday (18th May) and allow access to new features, such as automatic MPD playlist building. This firmware update will be...

    I’m on iOS 14.5.1 (iPhone 12 Pro) and the new version of GoFigure, and it seems to work fine. It does take a bit longer to connect, or at least download the info it needs to operate the Poly, but it’s all good from there on. I’ve tried the basic features and they seem fine. I haven’t tried...
