Chord Electronics 2yu Digital Interface

The Chord Electronics 2yu is a high-performance digital interface designed to connect directly with Chord 2go, transforming the combination into a versatile network bridge for use with compatible DACs, DAC-equipped audio components, and the Chord Hugo M Scaler. By adding USB Type-A, BNC coaxial, RCA coaxial, and optical digital outputs to 2go, 2yu brings 2go's streaming and music-server capabilities to a wider range of high-end audio systems. High-Performance Digital Interface At the heart of 2yu is a powerful 2,000 MIPS processor, integrated sample-rate converter, and low-jitter audio phase-locked loop designed for precise digital signal handling. Multiple digital outputs provide flexible system integration. USB supports PCM up to 768 kHz and DSD256, BNC and RCA coaxial outputs support PCM up to 384 kHz, and optical supports PCM up to 192 kHz. Automatic downsampling is provided when the selected output cannot support the incoming sample rate. Built for 2go 2yu connects directly to Chord 2go, creating a compact network bridge capable of delivering streamed and locally stored digital music to a compatible DAC or digital audio system. The 2go/2yu combination is also ideal for discreet home and multi-room installations, including Roon-based systems connected over Ethernet. Its compact CNC-machined aluminum chassis and Chord's distinctive polychromatic spherical controls provide convenient access to output selection, power, mute, and display brightness.
