Hello,

Can someone please tell me if I can use an 4.4mm female (TRRRS) to 3.5mm male (TRRS) cable adaptor to be able to use ALO Ref.8 4.4mm cable with Chord Hugo 2?
Thank you in advance.

Yes you can always use a balanced headphone via an adaptor with any other source both balanced and unbalanced as long as it is wired correctly for your source and headphone

You'll need a 4.4 to 3.5 TRS, not TRRS, as the Hugo is a single ended output jack.

I will sell my NW-WM1A for $700/7万円/€600
Just want to move up to 1Z. Perfect condition, really good value. will include a 200gb micro sdxc
How long have you had it? I am on the fence re: the 1A/Z conundrum too.

I wonder if this have been posted before. I am reading from page 1 and now on page 982.

I am usually on balanced with volume around 45-50 on high gain. Suddenly I found it a bit loud today and down volume to 30-35 which seems more to the loudness I am accustomed to.

My player is 185 hours mostly on balanced. Is this normal? Thanks in advance.

I did note this also, that the balance out, even at normal gain, after the 190-ish hours it got louder

Same here. But after auditioning 1Z twice and owning the 1A for 3 months, my conclusion is it depends on the other part of your chain of gears. Bass heavy IEMS with thick notes with normal copper cables will sounds a bit congested. This combo will be a better match for 1A.

Neutral IEMS with good silver cables will sounds heavenly.

Just my 2 cents.
