Hello all...
So I have a Bifrost 2 on backorder (probably a long backorder unfortunately) and am thinking of going with the Chord Qutest instead.
I'm picking up a McIntosh MHA-200 tomorrow (tubes - push/pull topology) that I will use with the new DAC. Headphones are Focal Clears/Audeze LCD-2f/Senn HD660S.
Would appreciate some input from anyone with experience with both DACs.
Big downside for me on the Chord is the lack of balanced outputs, as I was hoping to convert my whole signal path to XLR.
I'm upgrading from an Asgard 3 MB.
Many thanks in advance for the posts.
