    Chord Electronics Qutest DAC - Official Thread

    The 3.5mm port is for both analog and optical output ( same port size, shape) In other word, It's mini-optical port plugged into Chromecast Audio, which shape and size is identical to a 3.5mm analog port Just google "mini toslink" to check

    It's Chromecast Audio, I'm also using one for optical output to my Qutest + Hifi-Cast on Android phone. Superb for $35

    Line level output light color is only displayed on startup of Qutest iirc

    Fun fact: some buy a DAC because of how good it sound, then try their hardest just to change that :) I believe if there were a better solution/adapter, Chord would just include it with Qutest or sell it separately. The fact that RW only mentioned a battery bank for traveling without mentioning...

    May I ask how do you output optical to the Qutest with a laptop? (What device/hardware you use between the laptop and qutest)

    I agree that it's personal preference. I shouldnt have commented on such a matter :) on the other hand, I prefer Qutest because I think it's what music should sound like, it gives an incredible feeling whenever a song is played:)

    Don't buy the Qutest if yyou already have Yggy. It may sound differently, but wont be better (if you are serious about details of the songs, Yggy will score a big win, tbh)

    I only had 1 hour to listen to the Qutest today. But I was so impressed by it. I have been using YggyV2 for half a year or so, but I have always been disappointed by the amount of money I spent. (Emotionless sounding) I wont go deeper into Qutest vs YggyV2, but would love to talk about what I...

    I'm listening more and more to Qutest, at this point I'm very convinced by how it produces human voices, it feels superb to listen to just voices in any songs. Instrument separation and soundstage are also very good. Omg, I can't express how good human voices are with Qutest, I can really feel...

    I don't really understand your question, but I connect Yggy to MA6700 using XLR cables. No real difference between XLR and RCA so I stick to XLR.

    I'll do more experiments with speaker placement later. Good thing is that I did clearly hear/feel "layers" of bass with Qutest and pretty impressed by that. (no clue if "layers" is the right word to describe it, but I did hear it, and it felt good, I also think that's how bass should sound/feel...

    I just bought Qutest yesterday. Try to compare it to my Schiit Yggdrasil Analog2. To me and my brother, Qutest is better sounding, soundstage is more expanding (very noticable), human voice sounds more lifelike. Only thing I don't like about Qutest is its bass impact, thou not bad, but not...

    Schiit Happened: The Story of the World's Most Improbable Start-Up

    Sending email is the way I did back then, and they replied, and it worked, until later I no longer receive email from them. I found the solution, the problem itself should be ended here, Jason himself replied, and we should stop here and keep other discussions going.
