The new Chord Electronics Hugo TT (Table Top) is built on the the extraordinary success of legendary Hugo DAC/headphone amplifier. The new larger desktop-orientated device offers greater connectivity including a USB-B input, XLR outputs, two 6.4mm single ended headphone outputs, plus improved performance and features.
Compared to the more mobile Hugo, the Hugo TT gets a new larger more rigid chassis, remote control, an alphanumeric LED display that shows input/sample rate data, and improved sonic performance due to the use of supercapacitors.
The Hugo TT is ready to take advantage of today's advanced studio-master-quality (DXD) music files allowing music lovers to experience music in true high definition, along with the best possible reproduction of CD-quality music. Hugo TT supports up to 32-bit/384kHz audio via coax and USB, and 24-bit/192kHz over optical, plus DSD64 on all inputs and DSD128 via coax or USB
The Hugo TT benefits from a high-quality asynchronous B-type USB connection for both the SD and HD USB input. With two further digital inputs: a coaxial and optical (TOSLink), any connected component with a digital output can benefit from the Hugo TT's advanced sound quality, it also has A2DP Bluetooth capability and uses a custom-made module with the aptX codec to feed a digital signal directly into the DAC circuitry, so even without cables, music can still be enjoyed.
