Ledgendary DAC in Black 240v in perfect condition with remote, box and manual.
These are very very rare in the UK and fully live up to their awesome reputation the sound quality is impossible to match at anything like this price asking £1100.00
Collection from N London or could post at buyers expense.

I really am not trying to be difficult here - using the Insert image button the following html tag appears " http://imgur.com/a/Z79GP " Tag not showing square bracket(s) http://imgur.com/a/Z79GP "

Unfortunately, the image is not embedded into my post.

If anyone has any ideas I am happy to ammend the link.

The Link button did work and I'm sorry if this is against the rules.

I have managed to upload the picture but I did this via the Go Advanced button.

Image not working for me Stewart. Also you must include an asking price in your advert, as per the instructions: http://theartofsound.net/forum/showthread.php?41128-PLEASE-READ!-Current-rules-for-selling-in-private-classifieds(please-read)

Please amend your ad as soon as possible.

There's some well documented problems with photobucket, people are searching for alternatives.

FWIW, I bought a Dax off Stewart last year, a pleasure and fantastic doggo's...

Yes, clicking on the link does indeed take you to Photobucket, but the image cannot be seen because PB now no longer permit third party hosting. To do so you have to upgrade your account with them and pay them £400 for the privilege!

Already deleted this ad once today, because of no image. The rules are clear, image must be visible in the ad links are not suitable :doh: Seriously what is so hard to understand. Folks get to place ads for free, no charge and many join just to sell and never take part in the forum. The very least folks can do is get the posting of an ad right.

Sorry we were just following the instructions to add photos maybe the suggestion to use photo bucket should be deleted.
What should I use instead?

Photobucket's recent holding account owners to 'ransom', has only occurred within the last month or so. We have been trying to find ways around it to little effect.

You're right, we should edit the instructions and suggest alternative, reliable, and non-avaricious sites.

I will probably take some flack for this but I really don't understand the problem of inserting photo's

Tapatalk is the way..... download the app, sign in with your AOS credentials, select the forums that are you favorite's and then just post your stuff, including any amount of photos you choose at any resolution. This is FREE unlike some other sites I've used.

Be thankful that this forum exists. Instead of getting ripped off on the BAY.

The Sermon ends here !!!

Barry, Diyaudio have a facility that allows you to upload a picture from your computer as an attachement. Could that be added to AOS?

Yes it is a series 1 I'm not sure that the series 2 looks any different but it did have some internal updates

Thanks Stewart, it is bothering me that it's black and not silver and I haven't actually heard one before but am aware of its reputation of course, I've got a few DACs already but I do find this tempting.

As I said the SQ is something special the mk2 must be better but I've only seen them advertised in the states and they go for much more
It has a very detailed and sparkling top end that is never aggressive and a quality built in volume control for direct connection to your power amp for utmost transparency via balanced or unbalanced outputs
