Hi All
Selling my mint Audio Note DAC 2.
I purchased this from a chap who bought upgraded and sold Audio Note kit, he put quite a few upgrades inside. As I need to sell, I sent it for a service and to find out what is inside - This was carried out by High End Audio in E Sussex - Brett is a former Audio Note engineer and knows his stuff!
He said:
"DAC has upgrades - fitted with DAC3 output PCB with DAC 3 interstage line transformers and upgraded output signal capacitors (Jenson)" Brett said that it takes it to a DAC 3 in all but name.
He replaced 2 105 capacitors and the valves test as follow:
Mullard ECC88 - 80%
Mullard ECC88 - 81%
It's in silver with the current Audio Note badge in silver.
It's a beautiful sounding DAC and many friends have been blown away at the performance.
Again, would much prefer collection from East Sussex - or I can bring up to Kidderminster in the next couple of weeks
£950
Thanks
Rich
