“When you’re Questyle, you really have none of it. Damn funk. Or so you’d think. That’s exactly why turning to Foxconn was such a strategically brilliant move. It leverages Apple’s own infrastructure to gild the QP1R’s physical execution. On optics and fit’n’finish, it competes eye to eye against Big Corporate chic. iWantz! That sonics would (have to) squash a Classic iPod goes without saying. That part actually isn’t so hard to do given how many years the Classic hung out in unchanged suspension. The real question is, can Questyle’s GUI keep pace and peace with iTunes; or does it feel clunky by contrast? If the latter, it squashes desire regardless of great sound, current-mode circuitry that’s exotic even by audiophile standards, premium F95 Nichicon tantalum caps, NDK clocks with -150dB phase noise, German Würth power inductors, Japanese Alps encoders and the clearly slick form factor. One audio task the Questyle isn’t down with yet? Docking. Astell&Kern have already caught on to the fact that some users bounce between the tube, exercise bike, park bench, car, desk top and living-room rig all in one day. Their type wants a dock with hifi socketry and charge function. It remains connected to their stationary system; and parks the player upright to read its display. They so don’t want an RCA cable dangling with its 3.5mm end on the floor when not connected.”
