  • Inzichtrijke maar niet overanalytische DA-conversie, Goede ondersteuning hi-resformaten, Drie uitgangsniveaus, BNC-inputs en dual-modus, Industrieel design
  • Geen aan-uitknop, Voeding via micro-USB, Enkel ongebalanceerde output
  • De Qutest doet exact één ding: digitale muziekstreams omzetten naar analoog. En dat doet het uitstekend. De kwaliteit van de omzetting is zeer vergelijkbaar met de Hugo 2, met wie de Qutest heel veel techniek deelt. Reken op een inzichtrijk geluid met vee...

  • Since I started listening to Chord Electronics DAC's about four years ago, I'm staggered by the progress that has been made in creating genuinely better products. Over time, I can see refinement in the hardware, count the additional taps and hear far deep...

  • Stunning clarity and rhythm, Wide sample range support, Built to last
  • No Bluetooth, Idiosyncratic interface, Lacks coaxial digital input
  • While the proprietary FPGA technology behind the Qutest may be mind-meltingly complex, you don't need to understand how it works to appreciate the nuance and detail it reveals. That being said, offering gloriously detailed sound and exhilarating to listen...

  • You can read in this issue's "As We See It" that there is a dichotomy between D/A processors that sound superb because they're faithful to the digital data they decode, and those that sound superb because they tell lies. Chord's Qutest is firmly in the fo...

  • Chords Qutest ist ein absolut hervorragender DAC. Die ausgefeilte FPGA-Technik führt zu herausragenden klanglichen Ergebnissen und auch in Sachen Verarbeitung bleibt der Qutest ganz Chord. In Anbetracht des absolut fairen Preises muss man den Kleinen fast...

  • Der Qutest ist ein purer D/A-Wandler ohne zusätzliche Features, seine Ausstattung ist für diesen Zweck sinnvoll und lässt nur eine Koaxialbuchse vermissen. Die Verarbeitungsqualität ist ausgezeichnet; mit vier wählbaren Filtern gibt der Qutest die Möglic...

  • Truly outstanding sound quality, Well made, Good value for money
  • Looks a matter of taste, Needs BNC cables for coax, No silver finish
  • There is no sense beating around the bush with this one. If you need a DAC and you don't need a volume control, headphone socket or streaming front end, for any budget up and including £2,000, you should buy the Qutest. It has enough connectivity and feat...

  • Tiny in size the Qutest sports a very big sound with incredible resolution, sound stage and neutrality. I am going to repeat myself, but like the Hugo2, the Qutest's sound is perfect. It is impossible for me to find a flaw in it. To me it is a perfect sol...

  • Klinkt bijzonder goed, Speelt écht álles, Geinig design
  • Cinchuit geeft bij ons wat issues met bepaalde kabels (passen niet lekker), Geen coaxuit, Kan niet uit, wordt wel warm
  • De Chord Qutest is een heerlijke dac. De weergave is open, snel, eerlijk en opvallend 'afwezig'. Dat is positief bedoeld. Wel een paar gekke puntjes. Allereerst: waarom twee keer bnc en geen coaxiale input? Dan het gemis van een afstandsbediening en de ze...

  • Most of us might agree that the Chord Hugo 2 provides superior sound and features for the price when comparing it to other brands in this echelon. The Qutest sounds just as good for a whopping 800 bucks less. But of course, you’re missing a h...
