Chord 2Go & 2Yu Wired/Wireless Network streamer and S/PDIF adaptor - Official thread

@radnor, and to your question, Yes, I'm upsampling in Roon.

Please if I ever bought a 2Go, it would only be for SD-card playback. .... Is the 2Go rock-solid for just that function of SD-card playing? .. No VCaP. No flaky controlling the 2Go. Plus whatever else I didn't think of in terms of SD-card play.

Like they could fix any other issues as time went on, and it would not affect me anyway. By the time if I ever used wifi etc, then it would likely be all working by then.

And now for some light vanity.
My move around the house rig. Had this tablet stand for ages. Keeps the equipment cool and free of grubby fingerprints.

Hi all !

I'm just bought a 2Go and I read all the 200 pages of this thread.
So, thank you for the feedback and informations you putted here. There is lot of thing interesting and some less

Concerning my experience, it's very limited because in my case I plan to use the 2Go with a Qutest. So as you guess, I have to wait the 2Yu availability.
I saw September. Information from the moon audio site. Is there any chance that @Matt Bartlett confirm the date ?

For now, I just have a brick. I can't even connect to the 2Go via Bluetooth because it's a preowned one and the PIN has been changed.

A another thing, if someone wants to know if we can use the 2Go directly with the Quest with the right cable (microUSB -> USB B), let you know, it doesn't
I tested without success.

Another question for @Matt Bartlett, you talked about the 384KHz limitation with Roon. You had to check but I didn't see any answer on that.
Besides, for now, I'm using an iPad as a Roon endpoint and I can stream 768KHz. I could test with my Macbook in bridge mode but I think it could stream at 768KHz as well.

To finish, I love my Qutest and I hope I will have the same feelings with the 2Yu/2Go couple.

If you force a factory reset manually using the config button doesn't that reset the Bluetooth pin to 0000 as well?

You don't need gofigure to do that, just the hugo 2 and headphones.

I'm looking to invest in a pair of closed backs that would pair well with the h2go. Upto a grand is my budget. My trusty ol viso hp50's are creaky with age. I was thinking of dan clark's aeon 2's.
Any recommendations would be welcome!

Yes, you're right

The problem is I don't have the Hugo2. Just the Qutest.

Oh. That sucks.

Dunno, am waiting for PocketMags to deliver the digital edition. HiFi Choice August edition went on sale yesterday. Normally Pocketmags are speedy about it.

I can't really deliver any details anyway, because I would be in breach of terms and conditions.


I saw it on the front cover of the latest mag on the HiFi Choice website. https://www.hifichoice.com/

Given that they headline the picture with "portable perfection" I would guess they like it!

My favourite closed backs for the H2 are the aeon flow closed, so the aeon 2 should be worth a demo.

I find sd card playback using the 2go in its hotspot mode controlled by BubbleUPnP on my Galaxy Note 9 to be totally perfect.
