This is an excellent Digital to Analogue Converter and headphone amplifier. It's good enough to serve as a DAC in a high quality headfi or stereo system, and it can also serve as a preamp. I used the headphone amplifier with great success, both with sensitive IEMs and with my He1000 v2 planars.
I only used it in my desktop setup at home, so it has remained in great condition. It was recently serviced by Chord UK, so the battery is in as new condition. Chord also checked out the various inputs and outputs, just to confirm that everything is working well.
Current RRP is $4,100. The unit is Australian stock, purchased from Radiance AV. Comes with the original box, power supply, remote, and toslink cable. Let me know if you have any questions!

You can find lots of great reviews on the net, but here are a couple:
"There isn’t another DAC around at anywhere near this sort of price able to communicate so torrentially, so unambiguously or so effortlessly. We like it a lot." - What Hi-Fi?

"It almost certainly sets the benchmark for technical performance from a portable and versatile DAC/headphone amp. For those craving the highest levels of detail retrieval and speed, Hugo 2 delivers in spades." - Richard Barclay, the Ear
