DAC contest: Border Patrol Sei or Chord Qutest?


I had a thread about CD transports hijacked by a member who insisted that I had to ditch the Border Patrol before doing anything else in my system. No idea how he landed on the Chord, but he did.

So, here you are... a place to stomp some more on the Border Patrol and praise the Chord... lol.

@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.    

 

For a variety of reasons, this is a truly bizarre thread.

If an OP isn't willing to answer perfectly reasonable questions, what's the point? 

 

 

@decooney 

just read what I wrote don’t just take piece to fit your response 

why do I have to listen to a guy he seems to have knowledge on everything post on here ?

like I said most people are looking for hands on  experience From actual owners 

not from random people who has zero experience but pretending to have 

I rather listen to a reviewer who is actually has hands on experience  to the particular dac I’m interested 

@lordrootman "...why do I have to listen to a guy he seems to have knowledge on everything post on here ?"

You don't have to. And we all appreciate hands on experience, no argument there. There are responses that agitate each of us at times, no big deal - over time we kinda learn to ignore what we don't find helpful. Take away whatever we can, shrug off the rest imo. Happy listening.  👍
