Chord Electronics - Hugo 2 - The Official Thread

[dnnaudio]

It does make me wonder if, in the future, I could just purchase a non-working Hugo 2 and harvest the shell of it. I'm handy enough with electronics that this doesn't intimidate me.

I haven't complained to Chord about it because it seems like a pretty minmor complaint - but a few have raised a decent point: I've paid at least $3500 into this setup, and it should look the part.

Until Chord comes out with a Hugo 3, I don't see myself changing this out any time soon - it suits me quite well. Here's hoping that new device has something like a 2go built in.

In my experience Chord team very open to customer comments I suggest drop them an email. They may not be aware the difference in finish is an issue. I agree w/ others at these price point fit and finish should be flawless.

Does anyone know the size of the screws that keep the 2go together? I had to replace the battery, but the screws were misplaced and it looks like I have to get new ones.

It only does it with some IEMs (mest mk2), not with other (u12t and rn6)

Hi
Was thinking about getting C9ii but your humming issue is making me worry a bit.
Any findings meanwhile like for example grounded IC between C9ii or Hugo2 or trying different wall sockets?
