Immersive ExperienceWhether you're listening to music, watching movies, or gaming, a good speaker can create a more immersive experience by filling the room with sound. This immersive soundstage can transport you into the world of your entertainment, making you feel like you're part of the action.

VersatilityA quality speaker can handle a wide range of audio content, from music and movies to podcasts and video games. This versatility ensures that your speaker remains a valuable asset for various entertainment needs, whether you're hosting a party, enjoying a movie night, or simply relaxing with your favorite tunes.

LongevityHigh-quality speakers are built to last, with durable construction and reliable components. Investing in a good speaker means you're less likely to encounter issues like distortion, degradation in sound quality, or component failure over time, providing you with years of enjoyable listening experiences.

Enhanced AestheticsBeyond their audio performance, good speakers can also enhance the aesthetic appeal of your living space. Many speakers feature stylish designs and premium finishes that complement your décor, turning them into visually pleasing additions to your home or office.

Connectivity OptionsModern speakers often come with a variety of connectivity options, including Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and wired connections. This flexibility allows you to easily connect your speaker to a wide range of devices, such as smartphones, tablets, computers, and TVs, without the hassle of cables or adapters.

Room-Filling SoundGood speakers are capable of filling a room with sound, delivering powerful and balanced audio even in larger spaces. This ensures that everyone in the room can enjoy the same high-quality listening experience, whether they're sitting right next to the speaker or on the opposite side of the room.

Overall, investing in a good speaker is essential for anyone who values high-quality audio and immersive entertainment experiences. Whether you're a music lover, movie buff, or avid gamer, a quality speaker can elevate your enjoyment and appreciation of your favorite content.

Chord 2Qute DAC
12V Power Supply

The new 2Qute is a compact, affordable standalone DAC which combines two award-winning products in one: the revolutionary Hugo DAC/headphone amp and the class-leading Qute EX standalone DAC.

The new 2Qute takes the technology from What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision's 2014 Best DAC - (Hugo) and adds it to What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision's 2014 Best DAC £700 - £1,000 (Qute EX). The result is a new super-DAC for 2015 with class-leading specification, outstanding technical measurements and proven sonic performance.

2Qute advances the award-winning Qute EX DAC into 2015 with the latest Hugo specification. Essentially a Hugo in a Chordette chassis, it brings the latest FPGA DAC technology into an affordable home-system-orientated unit. 2Qute contains the same high-performance Spartan 6 FPGA that has enabled Hugo to redefine the DAC genre in 2014. The 2Qute also boasts astonishingly low distortion levels of 0.0003%.

The 2Qute offers support for up to 32-bit/384kHz audio via coax and USB, and 24-bit/192kHz over optical. DSD64 is supported on all inputs and DSD128 is supported via coax or USB (all via DoP). The new DAC also gains a handy switch to easily move between coax, optical and USB digital inputs.

The device features a Class 2 USB input which, because of the 2Qute's home-system orientation compared to Hugo's more mobile aspirations, has been galvanically isolated for greater sonic performance. This has been achieved using a novel technique which allows for very high data rates of up to 384kHz; the input is driverless on Apple and Android devices, with (ASIO included) drivers for Windows devices.
