USB power. Modi 1 needed Wyrd to avoid sounding thin, weak, grainy, and unfocused. With Wyrd, Modi 1 improves significantly. I didn't bother with the Wyrd factor in the graph. Too many variables. For example, supposedly the Hugo shifts to the left and jumps upward 13 spaces with the Wyrd. I'm surprised Chord hasn't hired Jason and Moffat yet to do their USB properly.

I wasn't impressed by the hugo before, I'm hard-pressed to believe the USB implementation was holding it back by THAT much.

Purrin, could you please add something general (realtek onboard/iPod) on this chart.  :)

@purr1n
It's interesting that your chart visually has a rather large hole right in the middle of it.  It's almost like you started at the periphery and backfilled in towards the middle.  I assume that it's to accentuate the contrasts between the DACs, or is it just logical fallout from your intuitive grasp of the hyperbole?  ;)

Either way, your golden ears and collaborative efforts are showing us all the way.
