Shawn, did you finally do the head to head with the Hugo?
I did it with AL last Summer with his older generation B7 (before he recently upgraded it to latest specs) with his maxxed out CAPs server and high end headphones, Senn HD800, Stax Electrostitics, Hifiman, etc with Woo WA amps and Senn SS amps.
It was a massacre. The Hugo, who I was rooting for before (as I own a Chord Qute EX), did not stand a chance…especially on DSD, but also on PCM.
Of course saying so online did NOT make us popular.
