Ohhh, I didn't recall that. I am sorry. I bought my iFi more then 1 year ago, and I do not know where the adapters are...So I bought a new one.

I thought Qutest was going to have all around native DSD support. So far Synology drivers don't exist so using DoP.

 

[soares]

Unfortunately not. Some reviews mentioned that and I trusted them... Lesson learned...

Me too

Me too

Perhaps Robbs could clarify. Jesus on another threat replied saying this is due (in Linux) to a bad implementation of the standards. The true is that with the same Linux I can go up to native 512 DSD using my OPPO 205.

It supports native DSD via the ASIO driver (up to and including DSD 512) and DoP up to and including DSD 256. I don't know the situation re Linux...

On today's Picture Sunday, Linus previews the new Chord Electronics Qutest. Great pics and a first impression - What more do you want on a Sunday?

I've experimented a little more with the output voltage, switching between 1v, 2v and 3 volts. The differences on my PrimaLuna tube amp are very small. I think I lose some top end detail and extension with the output set to 1 volt compared to 3 volt, but that's about it. 1 volt doesn't sound thin or bright, the overall sound signature stays the same. The output voltage also doesn't seem to significantly affect how loud the music sounds at a certain volume level on my amp, 1v sounds about as loud as 3v on my system, not exactly what I expected. Since the differences are so small and I can't hear any distortion or use more of the available range on my volume knob, I think it makes sense to use the strongest available output signal. Obviously this is amp dependend, but this works well for me.

You have adopted the right approach.
On this thread, owners can post their suggestions as to which voltage to select, but ultimately the qutest owner has the opportunity to test each voltage, and identify which setting works best.

Hi. UK only, please. Cheers for enquiring.

What platforms are the driver available for? I have a Synology server.

 

[Rob Watts]

I have been in contact with Matt from Chord, and as I suspected ASIO is windows only, so DSD is only DoP with Linux.
