I'm using silver dragon micro usb ( hugo2) to usb type-C ( SP1K ) and it worked for me.
Because they sound different...? What does the fact that you use 100 and 120 adds to your argument?quick question, why do people use expensive Astell Kern DAP's as transports with chord DAC's?.....I use old AK100's and 120's which not only work perfectly well but also cost a fraction of what the newer expensive units cost and as a big plus they have 2 micro sd cards which none of the new players do?....I connect my 100 or 120 to my chord hugo2 with an optical cord and I am good to go
I posted the below in another thread which might help.
I had the Hugo 2 before the iFi micro black, which I've since sold. The micro is amazing for the price, especially used. Nowhere near as detailed as the Hugo and the connectors for USB are annoying. The Hugo is a lot easier to use with an iPhone. But just for traveling, If I had get sell off my Hugo I'd probably re-buy the iFi.
My Chord Hugo TT2 order has been officially updated to a Chord Dave in silver. The Focal Stellia is still on the way. For headphone Nirvana, I might as well start saving up for a Chord M Scaler and a nice powerful headphone amp. Need more power for those Planar Magnetics .
actually used as a transport they wouldnt sound different at all....my argument is simply that one can buy a used 100 or 120 for a fraction of the cost of the newer models and use it with an optical connection and for me at least best of all have 2 card slots...Because they sound different...? What does the fact that you use 100 and 120 adds to your argument?
I can hear a difference. Many people can, too. I'm surprise that you cannot. I also gave an explanation on why it can happen literally a page ago.actually used as a transport they wouldnt sound different at all....
Not all light bulbs are built the same. What is hard to understand about that?And, before yall ask, yes, theoretically there can be a difference between optical output. Manufacturers can use different models of LED to transform current to light, before the light is being transmitted through the fiber optics.
My hugo 2 and 2go arrived yesterday. Sounds absolutely fantastic way beyond daps to my ears. So far, Ive been using it with hd650 and they sound lovely
nope i cannot, have tried...IMHO the reason to buy an expensive DAP is because it has a higher quality DAC ..I can hear a difference. Many people can, too. I'm surprise that you cannot. I also gave an explanation on why it can happen literally a page ago.
