There is no better way to house the Qutest system components than with the official Qutest System Stand. Its considered, robust industrial design allows unrestricted access to all connectors and its clever heat- transfer construction helps components to stay cool.
The official system stand for Qutest, Huei and Anni – machined from a single billet of aluminium in England
Chord's Qutest family – the Qutest DAC, the Huei phono stage and the Anni amplifier – shares one chassis format. The Qutest System Stand is the stand Chord built for it: the unit is simply lowered in from above, all connectors remain accessible, and several stands can be stacked or placed side by side.

Like every Chord product, the stand is precision-machined in England from a single billet of aircraft-grade aluminium and black anodised. A conductive, metalised heat pad transfers the unit's heat into the stand; plastic corner guards protect the chassis, rubber feet protect the surface. It ships pre-assembled.
For anyone who owns two or three units of the Qutest range and doesn't want to stack them loosely – or who wants a single Qutest placed neatly on the desk. Bundled with Qutest and Anni it is available as the Chord Desktop Stack: Qutest + Anni + Stand.
