 IFI is the least effective power supply for the ultraRendu.

I'm glad somebody finally said it.  Sonore should stop selling them.

It may have only just launched its Qutest DAC, but Chord plans to go big this Munich by unveiling a number of new products - with each one covering a distinct area of the brand’s portfolio, and one of which is (according to Chord) set to be a landmark product in the company's history. The curtains will be opened on the first day of the show.

Geez I hope I don't feel compelled to buy one.:S

The same problems apply to audiophiles adding new components to their systems; they may be disappointed that the new component is not a world beater in their system before they have addressed problems which the new component has unveiled.

And sometimes a new component shows you how good the rest of the system is by removing a previous performance constraint.  This was my experience with the Innuos Zenith SE.

Absolutely!  But even in this case some slight tweaks are often necessary to get the bets out of the system with the new component in place.

Yes I agree.  I found some things that never made a difference before now did what they were supposed to do.
