With Mojo, I found the Audioquest Jitterbug calmed the USB perfectly. I have left the Jitterbug on the cable, and that cable now feeds the Hugo 2. However the Hugo 2 is said to not need the Jitterbug because Rob Watts put some filtering in the USB input. I left the Jitterbug there by default though as it can not do any harm. The Jitterbug will filter noise from the PC. The Hugo 2 filtering can work on RFI noise caught by the USB cable.

Same for my setup. The Hugo2 may or may not need them, but I left the Jitterbug/Regen in the circuit from my Hugo1 days. I believe they improved the original hugo for me. So hopefully, they'll at least do no harm and maybe some good.

I tried the Jitterbug with Mojo and I didn't like it at all, it made the sound glassy and brittle so I let it go.

Quick question regarding Hugo 2’s line level out. When it is in line level out, does the volume ball appear more light purple than dark purple?

I thought I did it right but the volume appear to be light purple and can be adjusted to white to go up or blue to go down.

If I did it wrong, I wonder if I held down the XFade button during turn on rather than just pressing it.

Yes, it's a light purple.

Yes, it's a light purple.

Thanks! The instructions made it seem like it would be this dark purple color. However, I thought I did it right and it worked but the color was light purple. Just didn’t want to miss out on maximum audio feels.

I am color blind, so imagine how much fun these fancy color codes are to me...

That would be rough. All of the color changes have a nice white canvas making them slightly different than the instruction manual.

This sounds so fantastic with the H2>WA5>ZMF Vérité, omg, should be going to sleep, but this is so fine!

Has anyone been able to successfully pair their Hugo 2 with an Apple TV 4K over Bluetooth? The Apple TV 4K can see the Hugo, but when I try to connect, the Apple TV is generating a 4-digit pairing code which is not 0000. So then I get a “pairing code” incorrect error.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,
Muski

If you have an iPhone or some other Apple device with the Apple TV app it should show up there I would think

Have you tried without the Jitterbug? I ask because I've seen a number of reviews, and indeed a post on this page, which suggest the Jitterbug made a difference but for the negative. Could be worth a try. I've avoided the Jitterbug for this very reason.

The jitterbug is good for mains connected sources and pointless with battery powered sources IMHO. Personally i would not use it at all. Internal power filtering/regulating in hugo 2 is so so fine.

Could you point me to a review? I'd like to find out more, so I can decide. And I'd rather not reach around the back of my tower over and over if I can help it. Fat, you know.
