He is maybe a fan of retro 1960s TV drama shows like Ironside etc, as thats the vibe I got from watching it... Grainy video with 60s curtains and jazz music.

The only thing we are missing is the murder victim and chalk marks..

guess you missed the next episode featuring the CSI's, Professor-Plum was found dead in the living-room clutching a Mojo, Hugo was jealous apparently.... spoilers huh.

Any recommendation for a short like 0.3m USB cable to connect my Hugo 2 with iPhone 7? of course, it must be budget friendly (less than US$50 if possible)..

I found a USB adaptor though you'll have to get a short USB lead, hopefully someone else might be able to assist... you also might want to post the question on Head-Fi's 'cable' forum.

imho it is possible to capture the sound quality and speaker set up through recording devices. there are a number of videos on YouTube. some sound very good some sound too bright depending upon the gear and speaker placement. in my system I had taken great care in placement of speakers ( toe in ) and matching of sub. the result is accurate imaging aided further by Hugo 2. I could have posted audio only but video was added to give an idea of my minimalistic set up. there is nothing unknown ultra high end and exotic thing in my system. all the components are well regarded in their own right. Btw one can listen the difference even in case of Blu mk2 added to Dave on YouTube.

regarding curtains, I would say, wife was not agreeing for the room, so I had to use the available material.

Quality of the video aside, I never understood what good it would do to record the sound of ones soundsystem to present that to other people who will then listen to that on their own system. Could somebody enlighten me?

Good to see that at least a few of you guys got the message I am trying to pass in my own very diplomatic way once again.

Oh my g**! And to think I unblocked your posts.

Yes I know, facts are too hard to face for some here.
But you can always block me again if that makes you feel better.
Hear no evil speak no evil, nothing but praise allowed I guess.
Sorry to be stepping on your obviously very sensitive toes again.
IMHO in a "SUMMIT FI/ HIGHEND FORUM" like this one it is sometimes neccessary to remind overly enthusiastic posters of at least some minimum standards to be upheld hopefully preventing things from becoming painfully embarrassing like the video under discussion in the future.

Guys, I think that it is time to move on, but before we do, time for just one more video.

This is a video that I would have made if I owned a dog and had bad taste in beer.

I want to post this on the sound science forum for some reason.

Anyone try using magnetic micro usb cables such as these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BXDVBCN/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 to avoid stress on the connections?

After seeing your post I bought a pair of these connectors for my H2 and can report that they sort of work.

The power connection is stable, but does not have that firm of a hold. I have had the magnetic connection break pretty quickly after the initial "installation". I have since modified the drape of the USB cable to have less pull on the connector (hopefully this will solve the issue of pull out)

The data connection on the other hand is not stable. I am plugging USB in straight from a USB 3 card on my PC and it works, but not without intermittent signal stutters/dropouts. The data connection also had the same issue as the power and that it looked like the magnetic connection was not that strong.

I think I may use the magnetic adapter when traveling with the H2, but I do not think I am going to continue to use it during office use.

The model I bought are the 5th Gen Micro USB to Micro USB Adapters by Netdot-tech.com

Best,

A song that never fails to raise the hairs on the back of the neck even after listening to it for - what is it? 47 years now. Thankfully it has been reinvented over the years and you will find many versions. Strangely The Anti Nowhere League version fails to shock as much as the original, but Woman is their finest hour...

Always liked the Cleo Lane version, meself.

No... not for me, that sounds like Barb Jungr doing Dylan. On most occasions the original is the best. In this case in glorious analogue, which kind of defeats this thread...

Would you happen to have a link to the original?
