| Anybody here upgrade from Chord Qutest DAC" Definitely don't need another pre, that's true. I'll look into that aspect of TT2 features.I am super curious about the mscaler, but also about non chord DACs. I use a hifiberry digi + for streaming. Does top notch qobuz beautifully most of the t... | |
