Thinking of upgrading to the TT2, to some degree to drive the iFi iESL since it puts out enough power via XLR for it. (iFi's own Pro iCAN it's made to work with just isn't enough). I'd be selling off a few things to get my chain down to the TT2 as a TOTL solid state and with the Glenn OTL for when I want tubes.

Anyone use the TT2 with the iESL? Using for Stax 007-MK2.

Anyone ever compare the TT2 amp with the Pro iCAN amp in SS mode (using TT2 as DAC only)? I prefer the iCAN with the Hugo 2 over the Hugo's amp but if the SS amp isn't a big leap over the Hugo 2, then not sure if it makes sense (as the iCAN would be sold).

Hoo'ah I gots me my titty 2 back.

I'm waiting for it to get to room temp before I plug it in and listen to über tune's.

I shall keep it real and stay in the TT2's owners club. I will not turn to the dark side by buying a bloke called Dave, oh schiit, I just realised that I also bought a bloke, he is called Hugo.

I'm hetro before anyone asks.

:D

I gave him a kiss upon arrival, right on his serial number :D

I have been using my Mojo+Poly for the last few weeks, which is cool, but 2.4ghz on both of my asus routers started playing up yet again, keeps saying incorrect password, it's a well known bug that asus doesn't care about as I've read loads of complaints about it, so that left me using mojo hardwired.

The fix for the dodgy 2.4ghz wifi is........enable wifi guest mode, I schiit you not. Yay, free wifi evleybody,

Yes, I do watch the simpsons.

What was wrong to cause the clicking relays or did they just fix it?

Quoted from an email that I received.

"The complete input and decoder board has been changed. The original had an issue taking power from the PSU"

My 2 pence,

Maybe the clicking I was hearing was caused by TT2 turning off and on fast enough for me not to notice it happening due to TT2 being able to stay alive for 10 or so seconds after it's turned off.

The clicking was the only hint of something being wrong, as the display and SQ were unaffected.

Well, I’m glad you got it back. Music is so important in these times of isolating.
