Asus2, A suspended second, is A, B and E: the root (A), the major second (B) and the perfect fifth (E). Its formula is 1 2 5.

Is Asus2 the same as Aadd9?

No, though the names point at the same extra note, B. Asus2 leaves out the third, so it is neither major nor minor; Aadd9 keeps the third, C♯, and adds the ninth on top.

Where does Asus2 go?

Often back to A or Am, B moving up to the third. It also works on its own as an open, ringing chord.
