CHORD ELECTRONICS HUGO M SCALER, HUGO TT 2 AND MORE AT BRISTOL HI-FI SHOW
British digital audio and amplification expert, Chord Electronics, will be demonstrating its advanced digital filter technology at The Bristol Hi-Fi Show 2019.
The Kent-based company will be introducing the myriad sonic benefits of the recently launched Hugo M Scaler standalone upscaler, Hugo TT 2 desktop DAC/preamp/head amp and the partnering TToby stereo power amp.
Based around the company's ground-breaking proprietary digital coding embedded on a sophisticated FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) chipset, the Hugo M Scaler is a highly advanced upscaler featuring the world's most advanced filter technology, one that is capable of redefining the sound quality of digital audio. The Hugo M Scaler upscales standard 44.1kHz digital audio up to 705.6kHz, an impressive 16x CD's 44.1kHz native resolution. The upscaling performance rises to 768kHz (from 96kHz input data) when used with Chord Electronics' dual-BNC-input DACs, DAVE, Qutest and the Hugo TT 2.
The British-made electronics will be joined by Bowers and Wilkins' 805D3 loudspeakers for a remarkable ‘Best of British' demonstration in Chord Electronics' primary exhibition space, SS Great Britain 1 Suite.
Additionally, Chord Electronics also has a secondary ground floor site where music lovers can audition the multi-award-winning, British-built Mojo and Poly, the world's first genuinely high-resolution wireless portable streamer.
Poly's set-up and configuration App Gofigure, which has recently been made available for Android as well as iOS devices, will be installed on a range of portables for you to discover. Naturally, Chord Electronics' factory team will be on hand to answer questions and offer advice.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
