In excellent condition and full working order. Inputs are 2 x SP/DIF optical, 1 x Co-axial, I (double duty) USB/Co-axial.

On/off switch at the front. Has had some capacitor upgrades (Nichicon Muse and Elna Silmic), decent valves in there, too.

Audionote 0.47uf Oil-filled Mylar Tin Foil caps used for the output stage, Mundorfs on the power regulation board.

Max resolution is 24bit/96kHz (plenty). Build instructions supplied.

Notes:
The selector for the USB input kicks in midway between the switch detent clicks but that’s a bit of a non-issue.
The pin grips in the valve base for the V1 valve on the regulator are a little short. Valve sits in there fine but if it was being shipped it would be sensible to remove the valve and pack separately, just in case.

Needless to say, sounds glorious, lots of potential for further upgrades if that's your thing.

£870 please (includes shipping within UK via UPS).

Beyond my pay grade but I'd say not. If you need more info on the ANK head here...
