The Hugo M Scaler utilises technology developed for the flagship BLU MKII digital/CD transport, operating one of the most advanced digital filters available. With Chord Electronics’ proprietary unique filter technology, the Hugo M Scaler can upscale standard CD quality at 44.1 kHz up to 705.6 kHz, 16 times more. The Hugo M Scaler further upscales to 768 kHz for the dual BNC input DACs, making it a perfect combination for Chord Electronics’ DAVE, Qutest or Hugo TT2 DACs.
The Hugo M Scaler features the ground-breaking FPGA based Watts Transient Alignment filtering technology, for digitally connected audio devices to vastly improve the sound quality. By connecting the upscaler to Chord Electronics products in the Table Top range, the Hugo TT2 and TToby power amp, the full benefits of the Hugo M Scaler can be heard, working in optimum capacity in a space saving system. With illuminating control spheres and a precision aluminium chassis, the Hugo M Scaler not only matches the TT range in specifications, but in design also.
Featuring two BNC connections and two optical inputs for digital audio, the Hugo M Scaler also offers DSD 256 support through a galvanically isolated USB-B input for an easy connection to digital sources such as your PC. Dual BNC outputs enable upscaling to 768 kHz, to take full advantage of the technology in-built in the Hugo M Scaler.
