Chord Electronics Hugo TT 2

£3,995.00
  • Radically redesigned table‑top DAC, preamplifier & headphone amp with 5× the processing power of the original Hugo TT.

  • New casework by John Franks and a complete internal re‑engineering.

  • Powered by a custom‑coded Xilinx Artix 7 FPGA with 86× 208 MHz cores.

  • Advanced 16FS WTA 1 filter with 98,304 taps (double that of Hugo 2).

  • Supports 768 kHz PCM and DSD512 playback with significantly improved measurements.

  • Upgraded from a 4‑element to a 10‑element design for greater accuracy and transparency.

  • High‑power discrete output stage with second‑order noise‑shaping for ultra‑low distortion.

  • Six supercapacitors deliver huge linear dynamic current (up to 5 A, 9.3 V RMS).

  • Four‑stage user‑selectable filters and three‑stage digital crossfeed for headphone listening.

  • Sets a new benchmark in TT‑class audio performance, second only to DAVE.

  • Fully upgradeable with the M Scaler for 1M‑tap upscaling.

  • Connectivity (input): 1x USB Type-B, 2x Coax BNC & 2x Optical.

  • Connectivity (output): Stereo XLR, Stereo RCA, 2x 6.5mm Headphone jack & 1x 3.5mm Headphone jack.

  • Connectivity (digital output): 2x DX BNC (expansion outputs).

  • Output power: unbalanced (@1% THD) 288 mW RMS 300Ω; 7.3 W RMS 8Ω, balanced (@1% THD) 1.15 W RMS 300Ω; 18W RMS 8Ω.

  • Output impedance: 0.042Ω.

  • Stereo separation: 9 V RMS 300Ω -138dB.
