I also just picked up a Hugo 2. Mind-blowingly good sound that drive my Utopias beautifully. I'm looking forward to the Poly-like Chord 2Go module appearing later this year. I love the convenience of the Poly+Mojo—in combination with the Hugo 2 it'll be even more compelling.

(Yes, I'm back. Be nice!)

It’s sexy isn’t it ?

@Matt Bartlett is there warranty for this or is this issue something that can be addressed?

.....are you serious?

 

[McCol]

Same here... was told by the dealer that it's normal...

I did notice some early wear and tear of the matte coating, I bought the case in November last year together with the Poly from the dealer...but rarely take the case outdoors...

You can’t really expect to have warranty on wear and tear, its not really an issue either. You have some wear on a case, that’s what happens to cases, they protect the unit from the wear and tear!!

Fair enough... I paid full price for the case but I will check out the VanNuys case.

Did you not get a free case code when you bought your poly ?

In my poly box was a code to claim a free mojo/poly case.

 

[smaragd]

The free cases were only for UK purchases.
I bought my Mojo + Poly + case here in Asia.
No codes included except for the free Roon trial.

 

[Amberlamps]

Ah,

I didnt know that the free case offer was just for the UK.

To be honest, I like the mojo/poly case more than the Van Nuy’s one. I think the original case offers more protection as the van nuys one looks to be totally open at one end, I am unsure how easily mojo/poly would slip out if it was dropped or if it was somehow taken out of a pocket upside down.

 

[smaragd]

yeah, no big deal, I can live with it... there will be wear and tear at some point for everyone. The Chord cases come all with one year warranty ... just wondered...
I agree with you that the standard case seem to offer more protection like you describe. The VanNuys premium case is pretty looking but comes at a premium price too.

Does anybody know how to get the Glider App to show wav files?

Reach out to Joe28 he will help you with that issue. Current Beta version helped to clean up my unknown unknown/unknown folder.

Wave files do not support ID3 tagging, you should seriously consider converting your wave files into Flac files which will occupy less space and have the same quality as wave.

Technically speaking, the WAV container format does support writing ID3 tags (or any arbitrary chunk of data for that matter), but most software out there doesn't support reading the ID3 data. This includes the media server running on the Poly, which means the metadata stored in your WAV files will not be sent to any connected UPnP control point. Glider 1.7 attempts to correct this by adding a 'Verifying Metadata' phase at the end of the initial sync that will download small chunks of each WAV file to locate the ID3 data. This process has been significantly improved for the upcoming 1.8 release, so please send me a direct message with your email address and I'll get you set up with the latest beta.

wanted to share something I just experienced at work:

was listening to Poly through iTunes/Apple Music streaming (i love their New Music Playlist for me) on my work wi-fi network via my iMac and was experiencing constant dropouts.

switched to Audirvana to stream through Tidal and instantly there were zero dropouts...

what explanation?

 

[AudioBear]

FWIW, I use Audirvana with Tidal on a recent model MacBookPro and I have no dropouts either unless my ISP is having problems (which it does from time to time out here in the woods).

Do you enable the upsampling tool on Audirvana? Thanks....I just posted a question about this on the Hugo 2 thread.

No.

 

[smaragd]

perhaps you're buffering before playback?

I don’t believe the free case is available in the UK now either. I bought my Poly in the UK 2 weeks ago, and there was no voucher for a free case included
