Dual AKM AK4490EN DAC chips

The Q5 is equipped with two of AKM’s AK4490EN DAC chips – known for its smooth, pleasant yet detailed sound due to its high signal-to-noise ratio and low distortion. Audio up to 384kHz/32 bit sampling rates and bit-depths are supported as well as native DSD up to DSD256.

XMOS USB Audio

We elected to use the XMOS XUF208 microcontroller for its stability, powerful functionality, and its proven reliability. You can be sure that the Q5 will just work when connected to most audio sources, such as computers or mobile phones.
