lmfao they sound the same
```I don’t like or enjoy the Chord Hugo 2 because of all the bad traits of audiophilia that it manifests. Neither its controls nor sound feel like they were designed for humans. It’s like Chord’s engineers forgot what a headphone amplifier and DAC is supposed to be, namely a tool for pumping sweet tunes into people’s craniums. So they built a soulless perfectionist’s idea of an audio reproduction machine, neglecting to hear it for themselves. The Hugo 2 is technically impressive, and its crystalline sound gives glimpses into detail that other DACs can’t match, but in the end, it’s just too cold and inhuman. With enthusiast products like this, precision means nothing without pleasure.

>the verge
also is there any reason you should leave your audio equipment on 24/7?
Not really. I turn my amp off when I'm not using it.
@bentech yes
If you're retarded
<:turt:443131018950606878>
dunno my dad said you shouldn't turn it off and should just leave it on
My dad says dumb shit too
<:turt:443131018950606878>
he was sippin that monster again
<:boomer:480046032546168863>
if i wanted to experience that sweet PRO TM experience of tin sound,i should boost treble with amp in normal t2?
Tho that's more just because it can sound like shit before it warms up
accidentally blow up headphones ;)
For most gear you should turn it off when not in use unless you just wanna replace caps more often
@𝕄𝕚𝕕𝕠𝕣𝕚 put T2 Pros on and use tape to seal your ears
Boost everything you can
Then max volume
<:turt:443131018950606878>
yeah i dunno where it comes from
Then search for a bass boosted™ compilation on youtube
Download the video
Convert it to flac
Probably from when components sucked and had a quite specific optimal operating temperature
And enjoy pure bass sounds
<:turt:443131018950606878>
also
pain to turn things off
yeah,i mean i got my mic in my mic amp 24/7 , can not quite imagine manually turning it off every time i go sleep
```With the top end Naim amps it needs days or even weeks of being left on (and used) for it to sound at their best, all that final few % of fidelity and sound quality we pay ££££ would fail to show itself from frequent power on / power off.
We simply just need to accept that top of the line luxury equipment isn't like owning a kettle, that few extra quid a month on Electricity bills is just part and parcel of having big boy's gear.
```
also got 3 years warranty on that shit,so i m fine
must be from the naim side of things
I shut everything off when I switch off my pc
All on one powerboard
>switch off pc
