Review and Comparison of CHORD Chordette and 2Quete DACs

[pos]

Isn't there a minimum-phase variant of the filter that the user can select when looking for the shortest latency?

There are some modes to reduce latency for video, like auto video mode, that might be 0.1s delay on the Dave. Of course, some video players allow us to delay image so regardless audio latency would be a non-issue for DVD & BlueRay use.

Comments from Rob Watts @ Chord (I'm sure there are more)

I have only heard of that in Jriver software player. Hardware players usually can't delay video.

Rob Watts said the same. I don't know what other platforms might do that today. . .

I use Hugo2 and headphones at my computer for video sometimes - Netflix and YouTube.

No lip sync issues at all (to my eyes and ears)...

M-Scaler is different though (I've read).

@amirm can you show a square wave?

talking about square wave is for newbie to act like oldbird

Old thread I know, but a question on the 2Qute and its 3v out, would a phono attenuator on its output ( down to say 1.5v) affect its measured performance or indeed affect sound quality?

Just compared my old Chord chordette with a freshly arrived smsl c200. The most evident difference is that the chordette below 35hz is totally silent while the c200 reaches 25hz on my Tekton moab.

Is it possible to adjust the voltage output on the 2Qute to 1v, 2v or 3v like it is on the Qutest? Not sure. I've got the former but cannot remember if I did/tried anything like that.
