Selling my Marantz CDA-94 D/A converter (in black) that uses the famous TDA1541 chip. Smooth rich sound.

Much sought after DAC. Plenty of information on the web including:

http://www.dutchaudioclassics.nl/review/Marantz-CD94-CDplayer-CDA94-DA-Converter/

"The rear panel has phono sockets for the two electrical inputs and recorder signals as well as a Toshibatype fibre-optic connector. There are three pairs of analogue stereo Outputs: conventional unbalanced phono sockets for fixed and variable level plus professional XLR Type X2 balanced (fixed level) at the standard 600 Ohms. Inside, the Marantz CDA-94 clearly smacks of the no-compromise approach. No less than three mains transformers are employed, one each for the digital input/output section, the D/A converter section and the analogue section. Each of these is built on a separate circuit board using very high quality components, and each is heavily shielded." (from dutch audioclassics description)

DAC was sold some time ago - tried to edit the post to that effect but for some reason can't find the edit function.

Hey Neil.

Lovely DAC is that. Would love to try one myself.

Hows the amp going BTW?

Hi Joe, yes the DAC94 gives a very warm and rich sound. I sold it to a guy in Finland.

The amp is working well with my tannoys thanks although recent house moves have meant that my listening time has been curtailed.
