    •⁠  Weight – AQWO 2 weighs about 16 kg, with the Elektra power supply adding approximately 11 kg, reflecting heavy-duty transformers, mechanical damping, and high-quality power regulation circuitry.

Metronome Technologie is a French high-end digital audio specialist renowned for its uncompromising approach to CD players, DACs, and digital transports. Founded in France, the brand is driven by a philosophy that digital playback should prioritise musicality, timing accuracy, and analogue-like flow rather than purely technical measurements. Metronome is known for its robust mechanical construction, high-quality power supplies, and meticulous analogue output stages, all designed to reduce digital glare and preserve natural tonal balance.

This design ethos gives Metronome Technologie a strong following in the pre-owned Hi-Fi market. In Singapore, Malaysia, and across Southeast Asia, pre-owned Metronome digital components are valued for their longevity, stable performance, and ability to remain competitive even as digital formats evolve. Many earlier Metronome models continue to deliver reference-level musicality, making them a compelling choice for audiophiles seeking high-end digital sound with enduring value.

On SoundTribeAsia, Metronome Technologie listings—both new and pre-owned—are presented within a trusted marketplace that emphasises verified sellers, transparent condition disclosure, and regional accountability. This allows audiophiles across Southeast Asia to invest in high-value French digital audio equipment with confidence, supported by a platform designed for long-term ownership rather than short-term retail cycles.
