Anyone here have an experience with windows playback?

Roon works great on Windows with 2Go.
I often use it with 2Go when sat at my desk.

Can anyone please tell me the sound quality difference between using 2go versus using DAPs optical/coax output to hugo 2 ?

I've been in contact with Chord support for about WiFi dropouts since April. I let them know that the problem continues with my Orbi mesh network. I heard back this morning that another update will be available in the very near future to address the issue.

Great news, and while perhaps not an outright admission from Chord that this player suffers from network issues they must feel there is an issue that needs addressed and can be fixed. And rather disappointingly this adds fuel to the fire that we as customers have paid for the privilege of being beta testers on Chords behalf.

7 as in coax and 8 as in 2go ?
Methinks your leg might be feeling a tug or two by @Doody. :L3000:

To address your original question, the difference will depend on a number of factors, such as what cable and DAP is being used. Maybe if you could provide some specifics, a head-fi'er might be able to provide some knowledge feedback.

DAP sp1000 cable: original Hugo 2 optical cable
I use that combo all the time when outside having a libation on the patio. Cable is moon optical. Sound has a bit more body/warmth than sp1000 dac. I also have a poly/mojo but it is not the quality of the ak/h2 BUT it does do roon. When traveling it is SP1000 only as it is a fantastic dap. Will we ever travel gain though?

No I don’t so I suppose my comments are only half the story. Thought knowing the combination was used frequently might help. I probably will not acquire the 2Go but as it’s function is similar to the poly I am interested in the thread.
