DAC contest: Border Patrol Sei or Chord Qutest?

now we have to argue about asking useful questions so we can actually help someone properly? man oh man... 🙄

I think Most of the time people who ask questions here are actually looking for hands on experience from actual owners if not there’s a lot of positive reviews about anything out there we can simply takes their words for it

@lordrootman Yes, hands on experience from others is rightly valued here, but that experience has to be focused on what the OP is looking to achieve, and that requires specific information. If “there’s a lot of positive reviews about anything out there we can simply takes their words for it.”  Seriously?  Are you kidding me??? What about knowing what the OP’s sound preferences and goals are? Just because some talking head likes something means next to nothing if his tastes and system are different from the OP here. It’s all relative to personal tastes, system, and room among other things, which is precisely why I ask the questions I do. Just taking someone’s word for it is anathema to the whole spirit of this site. I truly feel sorry for you if you can’t comprehend this.

@lordrootman "...we can simply takes their words for it". 

While this might occur for those less familiar, most of the more practiced folks here will ask a few mindful questions to try and help steer someone in a proper direction. A selected DAC is not going to always sound the same in different people's rooms, systems, applications. There are other factors to consider, hence the more detailed follow-up questions by some folks here just trying to help. That's all.    

BP make a fine DAC and synergy is key. What is OP's system?
