you need to go into tidal settings look for the gear cog symbol i think and tick exclusive mode on and mqa software decoding on.

Anyone try the Fidelizer hardware mod for Hugo 2?? Claims a nice SQ improvement. Guy us in Thailand. Communicated over messenger... I may be there in November and get him to do mymojo and H2... specs at link... would appreciate opinions. If i could get another 5% from this would be nice.

@Bill Chu has posted about his case mod, but I think it is a different mod that is interesting you.

I wouldn't touch that with a 10ft pole unless I had an extra out of warranty Hugo 2 just laying around or something.

Thoughts on HUGO 3 & 3GO.

Integrated - Next gen product needs to be fully integrated headless streamer/dac/scaler/amp
Industrial design - Integrated device can be smaller... make this sleek as F.
Tech - more taps and more powerful amp and integrated HW scaler
App - work with a partner that can nail the SW interface.... native tidal, qobuz interface.

Nuff said... the above would simply be a home run.

One can always lose those colored balls, if one doesn't already have the menu option to turn them off for occasions that call for less attention.

Help me OBI-Watts Kenobi, you’re my only hope.

01. How far are we from a Hugo 3?

02. Will the Hugo 3 have USB-C?

03. Will the Hugo 3 have the 2go’s streaming features built in?

04. Will the Qutest 2 have balanced XLR out?

05. Thank you for numbers 1-4.

Surely, like any pending product release, nobody knows a thing?

Anyone seen any Hugo 3 mules out and about in camouflage? 🤣
