Cycleman Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 With tons of glowing reviews, you probably already know about the Chord QuteHD DAC. It supports both PCM and DSD playback, powered by its FPGA (field programmable gate array) proprietary chips to handle the digital-to-analog conversion process and more. This is the silver aluminum case unit, and the Chord is in 9/10 condition, working perfectly and totally clean. Chord DAC Input Specs USB: 44.1kHz to 192kHz, 16-32 bit Optical (toslink): 44.1kHz to 192kHz, 16-24 bit Coaxial: 44.1kHz to 384kHz, 16-32 bit The King Rex PSU MK2 linear power supply (LPS) gets the most out of the Chord DAC, cleaning up the sound tremendously. The 13V DC unit comes with an XLR to 2.1mm cable to connect with the Chord DAC. Plus the King Rex gives you a power switch for the DAC. The King Rex LPS is also in 9/10 condition, working perfectly and totally clean. Both are in their original boxes, and the Chord also comes with its original switching power supply. New they sold for $2300 ($1800 for the Chord DAC and $500 for the King Rex LPS). My price = $1200, which includes shipping in the CONUS if you cover the PayPal fee. I'm selling these two components as a package deal only. Let me know if you have any questions. And here are links to two PDF files, the Chord DAC's instruction manual and its specifications.

Cycleman Posted November 4, 2015 Author Share Posted November 4, 2015 PRICE DROP Now $1100 for both the Chord DAC and the King Rex LPS. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Music is love, made audible. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Link to comment
Cycleman Posted November 10, 2015 Author Share Posted November 10, 2015 You know, I'd love to keep this Chord DAC, but the porthole light is too bright for my bedroom -- and I have a Luxman DAC that costs $4K more that I prefer for my main listening room. So, an even bigger price drop to $950 for the DAC and excellent linear power supply. That price includes shipping in the CONUS. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Music is love, made audible. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Link to comment
Cycleman Posted November 15, 2015 Author Share Posted November 15, 2015 Really? At that $950 price for both DAC and LPS in pristine condition? I know one of you is going to be verrry happy. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Music is love, made audible. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Link to comment

firedog Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 This is a great deal, if I was in the market for a DAC I'd be all over it. Best sound (and features) you will get for that price.

Secondary Path: Server with Audiolense RC>RPi4 or analog>Cayin iDAC6 MKII (tube mode) (XLR)>Kii Three . Bedroom: SBTouch to Cambridge Soundworks Desktop Setup. Living Room/Kitchen: Ropieee (RPi3b+ with touchscreen) + Schiit Modi3E to a pair of Morel Hogtalare. All absolute statements about audio are false Link to comment
