MÉTRONOME C|AQWO 2. DIGITAL-TO-ANALOG CONVERTER DSD + SEPARATE POWER SUPPLY
The c|AQWO 2 represents the second generation of this advanced converter from the Métronome brand.

A second option transforms the c|AQWO 2 into one of the most efficient network players, delivering exceptional performance with a detailed soundstage while maintaining warmth and analog character. Musicality and emotion are guaranteed.
