I use Hugo with microRendu without any issue, it recognises Hugo.
As for Regen I think John mentioned microRendu has an improved version of it built in already so no need to use it.
With 9v iFi iPower even though Hugo does not use much power the microRendu does get a bit warm. So 7v probably better for it (just as John said).
I currently use a very old laptop with a large & noisy PSU and I am pretty sure the noise from the PSU does get to the microRendu/Hugo. By using wifi from laptop to the router those noise is no longer there. I have also tried taping up the contact point (for the +5v power line) in my Curious USB and that seems to work too. My Ethernet cables are Cat7 C-stream from chord.
I am still in burn in stage - my network chain is basically new - and things are still changing/ improving. Next stage will be to replace my old laptop with a NUC (or possibly NAS if I don't use demanding music server program like Roon). By the way anyone tried HQPlayer? Is it as good as claimed?
