Guys I’m looking for an upgrade, but I’ve been in love with my grace, so I’m looking for something significant. Does anyone here have either the ifi idsd pro, hugo2, or TT2? Thoughts?
For me the RME ADI-2 DAC was an instantly audible improvement. This before even taking advantage of the EQ features, etc. But I wouldn't say it was a huge improvement because the m900 is already good.

Would love to hear your comments on this, especially after you have owned both, as i have been debating between these exact two amps! Both amps are beautiful and i theoretically i could eq either amp as long as they are connected to my laptop. I plan to run a pair of Focal Clear or Stellia headphones, which are both low impedance and high(ish) sensitivty.
Many thanks!
Check out the usb power setting for win10, I used to have the same issue, the usb will turn off every 10-15 mins when I play games. There is a default setting to save energy to cut the usb power. turn it off.I have a question for fellow Grace m9xx users. My m9xx has started to randomly loss sound. Everything regarding the USB connection seems fine, but the sound just cuts out. I am using Win 10 and I am wondering if it is a bad usb connection to the motherboard or a windows update that broke the m9xx drivers.
I have sent the unit into Grace and they tested everything and it was fine. Not sure what is going on with it and I am close either doing a fresh windows install or getting a new DAC/amp combo. Any thoughts?

Whew. time for a dummy plug in the other jack?So, this morning my year old son spotted a Phillips head screwdriver on the window sill, which to him obviously belonged in the free headphone socket of the m9xx I keep on my nightstand (the other socket being occupied by Th-X00 Purplehearts). I managed to intercept him inches away from completing that pass and causing massive damage to the m9xx. It’s tough life being a headfi enthusiast with a toddler!
