Description Freakuence!<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
Power Ac! Flat, but the opposite in sound. Chord surrounds, is bizarrely fast and clear. Tight and big in the low end. The TT2 is not a warm dac, it is a dac that puts down a big and precise and rich midrange without cluttering. Here to compare with other dacs. <\/span><\/div>\n
Retail price: 4,995.00<\/span><\/div>\n

General description<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
The Chord Hugo TT2 is a versatile digital-to-analog converter (DAC), preamplifier and headphone amplifier. The unit is designed with a powerful Xilinx Artix 7 FPGA, which provides accurate digital signal processing. <\/p>\n

With various connection options, including USB, optical and coaxial inputs, and both balanced and unbalanced outputs, the Hugo TT2 can be used flexibly in various audio setups. <\/p>\n

It features four adjustable digital filters and a triple crossfeed function, allowing you to adjust the sound reproduction to your preference. <\/p>\n

The housing is made of precision-machined aluminum, which contributes to its rugged build quality.<\/span><\/div>\n

Background information<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
The Chord Hugo TT2 was designed by Rob Watts, chief designer at Chord Electronics. The DAC uses an advanced FPGA chipset with a proprietary WTA filter and offers signal processing up to 768kHz PCM and DSD512. The enclosure is CNC-machined from solid aluminum for optimal shielding and vibration damping. All components are audiophile-grade and assembled in the UK. <\/span><\/div>\n
Brand history<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
The brand was founded in the 1980s in the United Kingdom, with a focus on technology originally developed for the aerospace industry. Its founder, Rob Watts, is an electronics engineer with a background in advanced digital signal processing. His expertise in this field led to the development of a number of products using Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) technology, a technique that at the time was mainly used in specialty sectors. <\/p>\n

The choice of this technology was not common in consumer electronics, but proved crucial to the performance of the products that followed. Rob Watts worked with John Franks, who has a long history in the technical and manufacturing aspects of the company. Together they laid the groundwork for a series of products known for their technical precision and reliability, without deviating from their original goal of providing accurate digital signal processing. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
