Chord Qutest DAC (Floor Demo) + Chord Qutest Stand System

Offered for sale is a Chord Qutest DAC complete with the matching Chord Qutest Stand System, presented in excellent pre-owned condition.

The Qutest has become one of the most celebrated standalone digital-to-analog converters in high-end audio, earning multiple industry awards for its remarkable combination of detail retrieval, transparency, and musical engagement. Designed and manufactured in England, it incorporates Chord Electronics' proprietary FPGA architecture developed by renowned digital designer Rob Watts, rather than relying on an off-the-shelf DAC chip.

At the heart of the Qutest is Chord's custom-coded FPGA platform featuring a 49,152-tap filter and support for PCM resolutions up to 768kHz as well as native DSD512 playback. The result is an exceptionally resolving DAC capable of delivering outstanding imaging, timing accuracy, and low-level detail across a wide variety of systems.

The included Chord Qutest Stand System provides an elegant display solution, allowing the DAC to be positioned vertically while complementing Chord's distinctive industrial design. Together, the DAC and stand create a compact yet visually striking front-end component suitable for both desktop and full-scale audiophile systems.
