Will a Chord Hugo 2 make a music streamer addition obsolete?


Gonna make an investment in a Chord Hugo 2, for Tidal streaming (directly into my MacBook Pro) and CD playback.

Is my query (essentially) correct?

I use Arcam monos/pre (nearing 15 years of usage) with B&W 804s floor standing speakers. With the $ saved, I plan to upgrade with a pair REL s/510s subs instead (but that’s a discussion for another day).

Cheers,

Charlie

Hugo isn't a streamer.  You still need a streamer and a computer as a streamer sucks.

So I don't understand your question.

If you add a 2Go to your Hugo 2, it will add a functional streamer that serves as a roon end-point, accepts external storage, etc...  That said, you can add any streamer to the Hugo 2 but the 2Go is an elegant and portable solution.  

Full disclosure, I am a Chord dealer.
