    New from Woo Audio - WA7 Fireflies (3rd Gen)

    When powering off the WA7 mk3, I get loud pop noises as the unit shuts off. Is this normal? Is this damaging for the headphones? Should I be unplugging the headphones before powering off? There is no sound when turning the unit on with headphones plugged in. Unit functions properly no noises...

    dCS Bartok

    After updating to 2.0 I have been experiencing some issues. I am using the NETWORK input. Streaming Tidal via Roon. Now tracks are constantly getting skipped over, and I get the error "Tidal media loading slowly. This could indicate network or connectivity problem". Tracks play for maybe 5...

    dCS Bartok

    When outputting in Line Level mode say, 2V, do I need to turn the Bartok to 0dB to get the full 2V? Is this the most optimal sound quality? In the manual it says to keep the volume between -10 and -30dB and I think they wrote it for both headphone out and line out, but usually for DACs you bring...

    Does Bartok w/ headphone amp benefit more from a "source" power cord or a "high current" power cord?

    Riviera AIC-10 headphones & speakers amplifier

    Ive also running the Bartok and AIC combo. Is it safe to stack the AIC ontop of the Bartok? By safe I mean will it leave prints or damage?

    Do you guys find that streaming Tidal through Mosaic sounds better than Roon? And also Tidal via Mosaic sounds better than Tidal connect.

    Riviera AIC-10 headphones & speakers amplifier

    Do you guys prefer high gain or lo gain with the Abyss 1266 TC? Plenty of power even on lo gin but just wondering what others preferences are with the AIC-10. Edit: Also wondering, is the Mullard tube the one that provides the most sub-bass? Looking for the most bass especially the low sub...

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    I am still getting hissing sound when no music is playing on both Lo and Hi gain. This is for my Abyss 1266 TC headphones. I tried with RCA and XLR outs into the TToby and hissing both methods. I removed the M Scaler from the chain and still have hiss. The hiss is audible until the volume...

    Thanks, any noticable difference between XLR and RCA other than output voltage? Also, do you use Lo or Hi gain?

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    Cardas cross rca interconnects. Did you run RCA or XLR into the TToby? Can TT2 do both XLR and RCA output simultaneously?

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    For TT2 / TToby direct to headphone users (Abyss, Susvara etc), do you use the TT2 in Lo or Hi? I read previously that people heard no hum from the TToby when no music is playing but I am experiencing a bit of hiss (regardless of volume, even when TT2 is on mute) but definitely not noticeable...

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    I find that TT2 without the M Scaler you feel more bass and sub-bass impact. With M Scaler things get quieter and smoother / "laid back". Is this supposed to be the case? I am having a hard time figuring out what the M Scaler is changing to my music. Solo TT2 seems to be louder so is that why I...

    if -5H is the same as -5L, does it mean that on high gain all volume leading up to -5H would be the same as in low gain? confused

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    Thanks for this. I would probably leave it at the -5L for the 2.5V out that is standard in DAC mode. But I just like the volume ball to be lit up haha.

    Hugo TT 2 by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    If putting the TT2 in DAC mode the volume becomes -5L, the volume control ball no longer lights up. If I wanted to have the ball be lit up, would it be the exact same thing as putting the TT2 in AMP mode but volume at -5L feeding an external headphone amplifier? Is it safe to run it this way?

    Hugo M Scaler by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread

    When using Roon feeding M Scaler, should I have "Enable MQA Core Decoder" on or off? Is the idea supposed to be to send the M Scaler 44.1 and let it upscale to max? or is it ok to send the first MQA unfold in ROON into the M Scaler and then it upsamples accordingly?
