Hello everyone. I’d be grateful if anyone could recommend speaker cable for for my ATC scm40s. I have Teddy Pardo MB100 power amps and currently use Tellerium Q black. Many thanks Paul

When powering up the Hugo it displays "CHG" that I've assumed means capacitors. So should a separate power supply make a difference? Don't enough about the science to really have an opinion but TP must think there is mileage in selling one. I'm going to give it a go since there is a returns...

Thanks for the reply. More boxes I know but seem relatively good value for money. Already have the MB100 mono power amps and love them.

Hi everyone. My current set up includes an Auralic Aries streamer connected to a Chord M Scaler and Hugo TT2. Looking at the Teddy Pardo website I've noticed that he makes power supplies for each of these three components. I was wondering whether they may be worth giving a go and I'd be...

I found this works really well with my Qutest https://www.iglooaudio.co.uk/sbooster-botw-pp-5-6v-mkii.html

I added an M Scaler to my Qutest about 3 months ago and am very pleased with the results. Since then I've added a 5V S Booster power supply which in my view gave a very significant improvement

Thanks for your thoughts. I have signed up for the months free trial with Quobuz for now and will do the same for Tidal.

Thanks that's really helpful. Gives me plenty to think about

I bought an Auralic Aries G1 recently with a view to subscribing to a streaming service but I'm unsure of which one to choose. I'm leaning towards Quobuz for the simple reason of cost. I would appreciate any thoughts on which to go for, and with my limited computer skills, how to go about...

Over the last few months I've noticed a lot of press coverage of the M Scaler used mainly together with the Hugo TT2. In particular Noel Keywood's article in Aprils HiFi World in which he rates its impact on sound quality very highly when used with CD as a digital source. I would be grateful to...

Thanks Dee-Kay that's really helpful. I'll short list a few transports and give them an audition.

Which good CD transports do you think I should consider?

Ok,so CD is better than ripped FLAC? What would you suggest?

Thanks for the replies, gives me plenty to think about

I have approximately 500 CDs ripped using DB poweramp to a DS114 Synology NAS connected to a Teddy DAC. The assumption being that there should be no difference in sound quality between playing CDs using a transport to that of the ripped files on the NAS using DS audio media player. I would be...
