Here main what hugo tt1 have battery power, but how more differents sound quality if tested hugo tt1 vs hugo tt2 clear only how dacs? Because hugo tt1 i yet can look for buy.
He haved power 12V 0.5A = 6 W in one hour vs 60 W power for hugo tt2.
Of course if chord announce clear dac with line RCA out without amp, level hugo tt2 or hight, with max need power not hight 13 W, that product i ready buy and now! Dreams dreams....

Rob, does Tt2 and Dave, maybe even mojo contain crystal oscillators in the clock?

Just trying to see if mechanical isolation would be bee we beneficial. Also others saying the crystal needs warm up time ... what you think?

 

[Rob Watts]

All the DACs use a third overtone crystal oscillator mounted closely to the pulse array flip-flops (FF); the clock tree driving the FF is only one buffer in depth.

No PLLs are employed, which damage the SQ and the measurements and do indeed require warm up time. With pulse array, you see absolutely no change to the measurements when just switched on against warmed up; also if the clock is switched off, the noise improves by a negligible 0.5dB as pulse array is innately jitter tolerant.

I keep my gear on all the time, but I have noticed a small change in SQ with Hugo 2 after ten minutes - but that might be my ears and headphones settling down.

Regard Rob, happy new year 2020 your and chord company, more intresting tasks and projects in this year !!!!!




Now think about buy or Hugo TT1 or about Hugo M scaler.
For me main in sound quality this scale and width soundstage, after this all lost, because i use closed headphones, and when soundstage width then all play apart and heard more information.

I ready all prev page this topic, have next questions.

1) In this post https://www.head-fi.org/threads/watts-up.800264/page-53#post-14086780 your sayed Hugo 2/Qutest uses 67.5mS vs normal dacs where this value 1 mS, M scaler give 1.37 ms, i right understand what 1 ms this value for only home dacs right?
Then answer how value in ms will have Hugo 1 and Hugo tt1, Hugo tt2.

2) Say how more differents hugo tt1 vs hugo tt2, me intresting clear dac part

3) In this post https://www.head-fi.org/threads/watts-up.800264/page-47#post-14058132 your sayed what Hugo 2 is way more accurate than existing DAC's; its about 99.76% of an ideal sinc function, then say how value in % haved hugo 1

4) M scaler for me verry intresting product for buy even if connect his with hugo 1 (what i have now), but for power him need 15V 4A (how for hugo tt2), this me stopped, but in this post https://www.head-fi.org/threads/watts-up.800264/page-51#post-14070815 your sayed about M scaler next, (The mains draw from the M scaler is only 15W or so.). Say your sayed what for work M scaler need not more 15 W or i not right understand this post?
I thinked him need for work 60 W, just if M scaler can work on 15 V 1A, then i can think about his buy! Just me can made portable power 15V 1A.

5) Regard Rob, in this review https://www.stereophile.com/content/chord-electronics-hugo-tt-da-headphone-amplifier-page-2 hugo TT1 tested vs dacs Auralic Vega, Luxman DA-06, Ayre QB-9DSD, Antelope Audio's Zodiac Platinum and here say what Hugo TT in the same class as MSB Technology's Analog DAC ! Rob please answer me way hugo 1 and hugo tt1 have that more differents in quality sound (width soundstage, details etc), they bouth use same scheme same WTA filtres 26k same SPARTAN 6 or i not right?
Even when look in foto PCB hugo 1 and hugo tt see verry small differents.

6) Rob if say about max quality sound in isodynamic headphones (only headphones not speakers), after how dac or combo products (H TT1 or H TT2 or h1 + HMS or h2 + HMS) company chord, quality will that hight, what enter up in quality will not that big or see, up quality not need!. I ask only about dac, amp not need.
I say when in home system cost 10k for up quality in only 10 % need cost 20k and more. When 90% quality you already have.

Regard Rob, please answer in this my questions

I realise that english is not your first language, so some of your posts are sometimes difficult to interpret/understand.

Based on that start point, I am trying to be as helpful as possible to you as possible.

Rob is the only person who can answer the technical design measurements, so I will leave those to him.

After that you already have the Hugo, and it seems to me that you are trying to decide your next step.

You seem focused on the TT2, but in my opinion you should demo the Hugo 2 first. I own the Hugo 2, so can confirm that the Hugo 2 can drive all my iems, headphones (including Aeon Flow Closed), plus direct drive both desktop and floorstanding speakers. To me it represents the best value for money that Rob has achieved.
The picture shows the Hugo 2 direct driving Wharfedale diamond speakers, but I also use it to direct drive my Focal aria 936 floorstanders.
So the hugo 2 is very versatile.
True the TT2 offers more power, but costs twice as much, so I suggest demo the Hugo 2 first, because maybe you can satisfy your mobile needs without the TT2.

miketlse, hello happy new year !
Yea you right, i'm russian, english learned playgame in online game, and talking with europe players, ago thiswas )

Now about my situation, say please, your compared clear how dac sound quality hugo TT1 hugo TT2 and hugo 2? Can tell how differents between this dacs?

I just wanna in portable have dac with max possible hight sound quality.

I understand what how max, can buy TT2 use his how dac+amp and forget about all problems. )))

But, how do him portable power to he can work in portable 6-7 hour?

I find power bank with hight power 68A but he have in out only 16V, for TT2 need 15V in lost that power bank verry easy in weight 1.3

Then hugo TT2 have weight 2.5 + 1.3 = 3.9 kg but this possible, only that power bank can use with hugo TT2.

Or second variant, hugo TT + my hand made amp + cable for line connect between dac and amp in weight this will next, 2.5+1+0.5 = 4 kg

Hello @steam412 rob has posted a few times about using the hugo2 + mscaler combination on flights, using a powerpad2 battery bank to provide power.
I realise that the powerpad2 is difficult to buy online (apart from germany), but consider this as maybe a baseline.
I am just trying to identify the most cost effective solution to your needs.

 

[steam412]

Regard miketlse, can give link where have information about this powerpad2 searched in google nothing not find

Regard Andrey.

Regard miketlse, can give link where have information about this powerpad2 searched in google nothing not find

Regard Andrey.

this is the new version of the power pack
https://www.amazon.com/POWERADD-Delivery-30000mAh-Smartphones-Chromebook/dp/B07WVTKTYD

 

[steam412]

Here not have 15V how need for power TT2 or i not right? And if power = 60 W in hour then need 240 W all or more.

 

[steam412]

Here where your gived link here (5V/3A 9V/2A 12V/1.5A) only that and how voltage me change, if for TT2 need 15V?

 

[steam412]

If can use 12v then, this easy in my situation.

 

[ZappaMan]

Here where your gived link here (5V/3A 9V/2A 12V/1.5A) only that and how voltage me change, if for TT2 need 15V?

Tt2 can take 12 apparently

 

[steam412]

Well with need voltage understand. How Ampers need, if official power need 4 A?
And say way power need 15V 4A, but in real hugo TT2 can work with small power, i say about 12V ?

 

[steam412]

If for power in portable, need 12V and example 1.5 A then for one hour need 18 W power and this will enough for normal work. But if this that, then amp in TT2 will work not in max potencial or i not right?
