Purchased by me from Jake (Lordmortlock) and previously owned by Jerry (Jandl100):=

In Jakes words:-
“A two box Dac - very well regarded and sounds superb. Totaly blew me (and the competition) away when I heard it at Jerrys and I bought it as soon as I could. Its pretty much as good as I've had, certainly on a par musically with my resolution audio opus 21. In fact the only reason I'm selling it instead of the RA is because I can't find a transport I like the look of.

Heres some links - to a previous sale (when Jerry bought) and to the Deltec fan page with links to reviews etc. Please ignore the comment about the optical leads being difficult to replace. I checked before I bought it and Colin from Chevron Audio has confirmed they can be replaced with standard opt cables - a moot point currently as the ones with the unit are in perfect nick. The units themselves are also in great condition - a couple of polish marks and a tiny dint but nothing to worry about.”

From original FS thread
“In excellent condition. A two box affair, connected only via six optical cables to isolate each section. Seperate mains for each section too. Think it separates receiver section and the dac/analogue section.

Four switchable inputs and even two direct digital ouputs for recording or whatever. Input for syncing clock to the matching DPA transport too.

Sound is very lively and fast, full of energy and dynamics, slam etc. Great detail and soundstage. Im never good at judging mid-range this and that, bass this and that etc as Im always box swapping and moving the room around so cant give that description but will say it sounds great. Was about £2300 I think originally.”



Price:- to Include delivery from Dublin Ireland to UK or Ireland is £350-00 ono.

Was judged very good indeed at the time.

I've no connection to the seller or this particular DAC, but I had another one of these at mine over the weekend.

It was breathtaking. So much so, I bought one the very next day. They hardly ever come up and there aren't a lot around, so I couldn't believe my luck in getting one. Two have sold recently and this is the third. Like Buses, you wait forever, then three come at once. I can't recall seeing one for sale in a long time until recently. Mines going nowhere and the one I borrowed is not (and never will be) for sale.

My PDM Two arrives tomorrow. Taking the loaned one out of the system was the biggest downgrade I've heard in many years. I just wanted to turn my system off.

Whoever gets this is in for a rare treat IMO :)
