Chord Electronics Hugo 2 Portable DAC and Headphone Amplifier
The Chord Electronics Hugo 2 Portable DAC and Headphone Amplifier - sibling of the original landmark product, Hugo - has taken the original model and greatly improved upon it. With advanced digital technology that includes the latest FPGAs and WTA (Watts Transient Aligned) filters, the Hugo 2 features flexible new features and next generation technical and sonic performance. Used either on the go, or in the comfort of your home, the Chord Electronics Hugo 2 can connect to headphones, or within a conventional audio system. The line-level output and full-function remote control helps to add flexibility to the Hugo 2 in full-size and desktop systems.
The Hugo 2 offers four digital inputs - Optical, Coaxial and HD USB - along with extended range Bluetooth, boasting high resolution file playback up to 768kHz and DSD512 (Octa DSD), through the HD USB input. Analogue outputs included in the Hugo 2 include 2 x RCA, 3.5mm headphone output and 6.35mm headphone output.
The Hugo 2's four-function switch filter offers a useful and convenient degree of user-selectable frequency-shaping that helps to bring a warm and soft, or transparent and incisive presentation. The four-switch filter also helps with additional flexibility and user control. For use whilst listening through headphones, the Hugo 2 will retain the popular digital crossfeed function of the original, whilst offering three operation modes. The system will duplicate the effect of listening to speakers and is based on advanced binaural audio research.
The Chord Electronics Hugo2 Portable DAC and Headphone Amplifier comes with four spherical control buttons that light up with colour-coding information. These buttons also work to control the power, input, filtering and crossfeed functions of the Hugo 2. Battery life is around seven hours of use and there are two modes of automatic charging available, including the use of the dedicated Micro USB charge port. A convenient indicator shows charging and battery-charge status.
