I Am One Lucky Boy

By |January 4th, 2017|Hardware Reviews, Headphone Reviews|

Chord Electronics Hugo | Review

By |March 8th, 2014|Hardware Reviews|

I get many new products at Custom Cable that I get excited about I must admit! Usually it’s like Christmas when a brand we support launches a new product. I have to run down to the warehouse to unbox our demonstration stock and start playing. However, I was lucky to have a play with a very special little product prior to receiving our demonstrator this time around. It was quite an unsuspecting little unit, a glass window on the top with a jog wheel and a multitude of sockets lining either end.
