A dCS Paganini, so comparing would not be really fair. But, the Hugo let me hear a lot of things other dacs I had (exclude the Paganini here) did not shown. It must be that FPGA chip vs of-the-shelf dac's. Before these dac's I had a Antelope Audio Zodiac +, while it was a good dac the Hugo and Paganini are a lot better.

That's some DAC :eek: And, yes, it would be somewhat unfair. Well, if you have a dCS and still like the Hugo, it gives me hope that I'm not hearing things.

Cheers.

Thanks, it took me some time to acquire a dac on this level. That the Hugo comes close (to my ears) is indeed a compliment to the designer of the Hugo, Rob Watts.

What toshlink input does the Hugo have, standard. Thus if I take mini toslink out of my ak120 or MacBook Pro then I would go mini to standard? Is that correct?

Hey @dallan,
It's a standard on the Hugo, so you need a mini-toslink to standard. There are those that prefer the one that came in the box to the expensive ones. Feel free to borrow my sys-concepts and you can AB when yours arrives.

My experience with the note 4: N9100 dual sim variant.
1. uapp is needed for > 48 files.
2. Onkyo outputs 48 only. I get crashes, som my conclusion is ios app is more stable.
3. Stock player outputs 48 only. This is a step forward from the old models where note 3 wouldn't output using the stock player.

Onkyo and stock player needs some on-off switching and plugging on-off scheme to get it to work.

Anyone else been able to play around with note 4? Are you experiencing the same?

I typically use my ak's with the hugo but wanted to find out if my phones would work.

ios no problem.

I have one and a hugo. I could not get the hugo to link up using an otg cable or non.
The inkyo hd app works fine but only to 48 as you noted. But it does play all formats
Down investing all.
The iPhone's so far are best for me

 

[b0ssMax]

Thanks al. Btw stock player has pops and static and the music is like in slow speed.

I was able to use otg but there was a combination required to make it work. On/off and cable.

I won't be using note anyways, oh wel.

ok I need a bit of help with a Bluetooth problem, definitely not my best subject admittedly... my mate has a Sony Xperia phone and he's trying to figure how to connect to the Hugo via Bluetooth, obviously he ain't had much luck so I'm wondering if he needs a Sony 'codec' to connect... any advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

[Mython]

Hugo uses the A2DP and (better) APTX, codec, does it not?
 
Is he trying to use a Sony codec? That might be proprietary and not work with non-Sony gear.

 

[OK-Guy]

Mython... any idea where you get the Sony Codecs from?

 

[Mython]

I'm no bluetooth expert, but that is fundamental to a smartphone and to the Android operating system upon which it is based. It definitely should not be necessary to manually install a bluetooth codec, for general use.
 
Is he able to connect anything at all via bluetooth, or is it a total no-go for bluetooth altogether, at the moment? (e.g. can he bluetooth connect the phone to something like bluetooth speakers or a bluetooth headset?)
 
Need to distinguish between a Hugo miscommunication, or a total bluetooth issue on the phone..
