This should be very interesting. I wonder if Charles partnered with someone in creating the QX-5 Twenty. His forte is not 'digital' as best I know but the QB-9 DSD DAC was a major hit, as was the older QB-9. I -think- he partnered with Gordon on the QB-9, not sure if he did with the newer QB-9 DSD.
I recall when Dennis Had was still running Cary (retired long ago), they partnered with some contract engineer for their digital products. Dennis made some awesome sounding tube gear but 'digital' was not his thing. I think this might be true of many established and well respected analog guys.
I'm just speculating and wondering. Maybe you'll get the inside scoop Ayre.
