Angeboten wird „Hugo M Scaler“ von Chord Electronics als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „D/A Wandler“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 1113243324 endet am 25.06.2026 um 01:15 Uhr.
At €2,199, this sits just below the €2,223 25th percentile of your recent comparables and a touch under the €2,233 median, so it reads as a slightly-better-than-fair buy rather than a bargain. It is not cheap enough to call a steal, but it is priced sensibly versus the current used market for this piece.
The appeal here is straightforward: the Hugo M Scaler is one of the most respected upsampling units in the hobby, prized for sharpening timing, depth, and overall refinement when paired with a revealing DAC or Chord front end. In good condition, at this price, it is a credible opportunity if the seller can confirm clean operation, original power supply, and the cables/adaptors you need for your chain.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Chord Electronics, a British high-fidelity powerhouse, traces its roots to the aviation industry. Founded in 1989 by John Franks, a former Marconi Avionics engineer, the company emerged from his early 1980s innovations in ultra-reliable, high-frequency switching power supplies for aircraft electronics. Initially too costly for commercial viability, the designs became feasible with advancing components, launching Chord from its Kent headquarters in a renovated pumphouse that remains its manufacturing heart.
The brand excels in premium amplifiers and digital-to-analog converters (DACs), blending Franks' analog prowess with digital expertise from FPGA specialist Rob Watts. Early power amplifiers quickly won acclaim from professional studios like the BBC, Abbey Road, and Skywalker Sound, establishing credibility before shifting focus to consumer hi-fi. Iconic products like the Hugo and Mojo DACs exemplify their boundary-pushing approach, alongside integrated amps and streamers, all handcrafted in the UK without compromise on power, precision, or musicality.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Chord commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its uncompromising engineering, aerospace-grade reliability, and bold innovation. Independent and proudly British, it sets benchmarks in transparency and dynamics, attracting buyers who demand reference-level performance over mass-market concessions.
