Can someone send a link for the dual coaxial in adapter in the usa?

Will the hugo 2 access both coaxial inputs if set in coax 2 with said adapter connected?

Looking to obtain highest data signal and I assume this is the best way.

These are what I use to connect my Blu2 to my Hugo2:

If you have a dual coax signal (so far, Blu2 is the only source I know of that does that), Hugo2 will auto sense and switch to dual BNC input mode.

Otherwise, you can independently select BNC1 and BNC2 as inputs, with each BNC input being a traditional digital input (up to 354kHz I believe)

I think it might have been the Audioscience review. Much was made of the drivers required for windows which was then withdrawn later as a criticism but the review was not altered. Quite unfair in my opinion. But then the guy has an agenda about nothing beyond a cheap adequate dac being needed anyway.

Then, most people's ears should discredit his narrow agenda.

The Hugo1 received DSD in DoP mode, but I'm sure the H2 is in native mode. Did you try that? I have no problems in 64-256, (never had 512 to test). Let me know if it works.

No, a native mode DSD signal path is not available as an option on Mac OS.

So 354 kzh is the max output for hugo 2?

Thought it was double?

Again, apologies id this was discussed. I havent read all 12 thousand threads

This can be confusing, so no worries. The Hugo2 actually supports two BNC inputs (BNC1 and BNC2) via the single dual coax connector. Each maxes out at ~350kHz, which is the max (as I understand it) that digital sources can typically support.

Since the mScaler needed to get up to 700kHz++, Rob added dual BNC support to the DAVE and Hugo2. When you connect a source that is 700kHz++ (and as of now, the only one I'm aware of is the Blu2), the Hugo2 and DAVE auto detects it and puts itself into dual BNC mode, where 1/2 the signal is coming down one BNC cable, and 1/2 the signal is coming down the other.

So the Hugo2 can support up to 2 traditional digital BNC inputs and can switch between them (up to ~350kHz, I don't recall the exact value), or 1 dual BNC input (up to 768kHz) from a Blu2

 

[yakaway]

Is there a specific cable or adapter for achieving this... 768 khz on the hugo2?

Do the links above apply?


Blu2 on the way.


Thanks for the info.

As much as we like our Macs they are not the be all. Bootcamp isn't necessarily a workaround either - to many issues. For DSF and Blu-ray files I exclusively use a Windows notebook.

Sorry, I forgot about Mac's limitations.

Good to know Windows works. I did find a workaround: Repositioning the play point eliminates the crackle.

We could possibly see the 2go at the munich show. fingers crossed.

I just hope they don't tell us too early. Remember the Hugo2 release last year? Didn't many suffer waiting for that dish to fall into our hands. Far be it for me to tell Chord how to conduct business, but, I only hope they can hold off the releasea announcement until ready.

Can I connect multiple headphones with H2 at the same time?

 

[Rob Watts]

Yes

Rob, I’d like to know your opinion: is it in desktop mode better to leave the Hugo 2 constantly on or turn it off after each use?

 

[Rob Watts]

Keep it on, desktop mode keeps the voltage on the battery at a safe level for longevity POV, and ensures that the bulk of the current needed for Hugo 2 comes from the charger not the battery.
