Description

The Chord Electronics Hugo M Scaler has the ability to increase performance levels of the already outstanding Chord DAVE, Hugo TT2 and Qutest DAC’s. When added to the before mentioned DAC’s the Hugo M Scaler extends upscaling performance to 768kHz (from 96kHz input data) when connected via dual-BNC-input. For those of you yet to own a Chord DAC the M scaler will increase the performance capabilities of any digital source and upscale standard 44.1kHz digital audio up to 705.6kHz (16x CD’s 44.1kHz native resolution) depending on your DAC’s decoding capabilities.
