hey guys!
Does 2go "actually" work? Did they solve those connection problems (hinting at Mojo+Poly)?
Honestly, when I realised I was spending more time trying to connect Mojo and Poly than listening to music, I put the product away. 600 euros dissolved in nothingness.
I understand, guys, it's difficult to roll out new products in modern times and I appreciate innovations, but still Poly was absolutely far away from acceptable. It got slightly better with firmware updates but just slightly. I don't remember if I've ever owned a more frustrating piece of audio gear

2Go feels like a totally different product. This is coming from a launch Poly owner, which got better but has hardware limitations.

Go for it, I’ve had mine since launch and use it daily. Couldn’t be happier save for some issues with Roon, which seems to be due to my WiFi/router.

For me it works. The set up is very similar to Mojopoly. Gofigure for 2go allows for easier changes between different playing modes wifi v hot spot v bluetooth. You dont have to use gofigure to enter roonmode. Hovewer overally you do it as in Mojopoly but Everything works bit more smoothly. Note for me Mojopoly worked without much issue from day one. There is lots of different aspects in play phone model, wifi network connection or prefferable use cases, which may influence experience. But i am extremely happy and the sound of hugo2go is sublime.

I can’t tell a difference between my two black units: no 2Go for you I’m afraid @Doody

you're welcome to repeat your joke. i'm not gonna say antthing :). still have my threatening PM saved away :wink:.

Yes, if I recall the Silver was a bit brighter sounding. The Black maybe a bit darker. I find the Mojo a bit darker sounding as well.

Please excuse me. I have Cabin Fever while waiting for my 2Go to arrive.

Wow, maybe there should've been a silver Mojo for folks with darker headphones :)

I am happy to report that the intermittent connectivity issues I was having with "Tidal loading slowly" and hires tracks refusing to play from my audio server to 2Go on my home network were due to the router I was using.

I was a bit perplexed as to how Tidal/Roon can be having issues like that when I have a 300mbps connection.
Getting a much more capable router has fixed this (for now);

Which router do you use?
