Got too many dacs now, so selling this.

I have upgraded the coupling caps to Audio Note Copper in Oils, as can be seen in the pics, which give a substantial improvement.

Price is £300 with the AN caps ( These are about £65 a pair from Hi Fi Collective) or alternatively I can refit the original Wimas, in which case I'd be after £250.

A great sounding dac which I'd be keeping if I didn't have my Nick Gorham designed and built valve dac. The AN has great soundstaging and a smooth un-edgy sound, unless it's in the recording!
