Thanks for sharing J.

Lol and Ultima DAC next year following John

I am confused as to why Chord hasn't had an interview in the UK with English-speaking interviewers, strange.

I assume that the focus has been on getting all the far east dealers up to speed with the upcoming products, ready for Canjam Singapore.
The majority of the european/US canjams are after the new products start shipping in May, so maybe less urgency.

Get ready for that price tag

£9,995.00 GBP perhaps…

It's a bargain! 5 FPGAs in a box with separated PS + latest tech, etc... Based on this config, it should be priced at HMS X5! However, no opt inputs!

Btw, I've acquired a pair of Yamaha NS 5000. My best hifi investment ever! It brought out the best of my HMS/Qutest! Well, all Rod's Dac users should give it a listen!

It's much much much and much better than the one behind it!

For this new quartet scaler I’d say more like 15K minimum

 

[Vyyy]

Id guess too, for quartet scaler 15-17k eur plus power supply 7-8k beeing in total 25k.

But thats normal, since in addition with Dave its rival to DCS rossini/ apex more of…

Funny thing, but i would be willing to test it with hugo2 at dealer once shipped!

That’s me wishing it was priced at this level out the window

Yea i'll pass on that .

Separate power supply means more casework from machined aluminium, not cheap!

This is one for the deep pocket boys, I bet the new DAC will be up there as well.

You know what they say, big wallet = big dac

Ugh, I really hope you're wrong about that. I was really looking forward to it, but would be priced out at that level.

I will pass too, but curiousity to listen is still there )

Did i got clear that all new product from Robs designs have been already spoiled? Quartet and Power supply, and ultima dac which is still not clear if 2025 will be release date.? It wasnt the case previously not to leave at least something for a surprise!

There are also the Suzi pre-amp + amp, in the pipeline, but maybe that is a John Franks amplifier design.

Hopefully that will stop the Tweakos from trying 100 different power supplies, oh, wait, they are still going to do it anyway
