A tale of a unitiqute

Posted by: jon h on 18 December 2015

When UQ came out I bought one almost immediately. it seemed to be the ideal combination of dab, fm, amp, digital bits all in one little qute (sorry) box.

it got used a lot, often as a reference dab player. and then came the 192k upgrade which it had. then various firmware upgrades, such that now it can do full res Tidal.

But I never really found a pair of speakers that seemed just right for it.

Now I have -- the atc  SCM11. What a stunning combination. Rhythm, pace, timing and a wonderfully neutral and clear sound free of nasty time and frequency domain bumps.

it really sings as a combination. And is, in one sense, all you actually need. it does everything incredibly well, although I rue the lack of airplay support.

these are cracking speakers when driven by naim amps. I suggest you take a listen

I agree that built-in Airplay would be handy, but it only takes an Airport Express and optical cable to get it.
