No feature has been overlooked in search of improvements, both functional and sonic. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eQutest is based on Chord's award-winning proprietary FPGA technology developed for the class-leading Hugo 2 DAC\/headphone amp, giving it proven class-leading technical and sonic performance. It features a galvanically isolated USB-B, and optical and coaxial digital inputs. This also brings the Qutest in line with the house sound of Chord DACs—for those who know, that includes depth, warmth, width, and soundstage layering like you wouldn’t believe. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSolid Aluminum Billet\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Qutest chassis is all-new, too. It has significantly greater mass than its predecessor and has been precision-machined from solid aircraft-grade aluminum billet. The Qutest PCB nestles in a shallow cavity in the solid aluminum chassis, giving the circuit board greater protection within the casework, and additional isolation from external vibration compared to previous designs. While the Qutest is indeed quite cute, it in no way feels cheap. This small but mighty package’s aluminum chassis feels rock solid and high-end despite its near pocket-size dimensions. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eLots of Features\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQutest offers Hugo 2’s proprietary user-selectable frequency-shaping filters and input selection controls, available via two fascia-mounted spheres, introducing useful flexibility. It also features RCA analog outputs for connection to integrated amplifiers, preamps, and headphone amps, plus high-resolution dual-data digital inputs for connection to future Chord Electronics products.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe find these selectable features add a lot of flexibility to the Qutest. Though subtle, the filters do change perceptions of transient dynamics, detail and soundstage, and we think there’s a little something for everyone here, from slight warming effects to clean and clear. Best of all, it’s done with Chord’s signature clarity and transparency, yet with no sacrifice of musicality even on the most linear filter settings. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA further new feature is a user-selectable output voltage available in 1, 2, and 3 V RMS outputs for flexible connectivity with a wide range of devices. This is another great option as preamps from different eras may expect different voltages, so a vintage preamp, which may have a higher input sensitivity designed for phono, may enjoy the 1 V setting. Conversely, a more modern, lower gain preamp with a lower input sensitivity may like the 2 V or 3 V options, especially if it has tubes, which tend to benefit from more voltage gain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe point is that the Qutest gives you the flexibility to match the output to your accompanying volume device, an invaluable and oft-overlooked capability.
