AQWO was first introduced at the Munich Show in May 2018. It is the first SACD player from Métronome.
Like all the DAC+CD hybrids from the brand, AQWO performs the same analogic sound quality in its function of D/A converter, and beneficiates of numerous digital inputs and outputs allowing a great versatility. Its also has a comfortable touchscreen of 6.5 inches and 21/9.
AQWO has also an optional tube output kit, which can be pre-installed in our workshops or be ordered later. AQWO decodes both PCM and DSD formats up to 512 (x8).
A bit more big in size and robust compared to the former generations of Métronome devices, AQWO is available as always in silver and black finishes.
