I have been looking for cheap DAC's (really cheap! and I will be buying used too)
and I can really only find the beresford with a volume control. Am I not looking hard enough?

I see there are a few beresford models too, and bearing in mind I am looking for a used one around £100, which one would I get for the money?

Any suggestions? maybe you are selling one?

thanks guys, I know nothing about DAC's so all help gratefully recieved! :)

Beresford 7510.

I would have thought that you could get one for in and around a £100 S/H

I have spent time with one Steve so it is really good.

Thanks Neil, and the others for their suggestions. I thought the field was pretty narrow, and the beresford does have a good reputation.

£100 you say? I might have a TC-7510 that I can sort you out with. Might be less than £100 mind you, so if it is vitally important that it should be £100, let me know by PM.

Thanks Stanley. It may be a week or so though. Does the 7510 have optical? EDIT, just had a look! silly me...

Definitely sounds like a bargain. I've had Beresford TC-7510 for about two years now hooked up to my PC with Rotel amp and B&W bookshelves. Use it everyday and is worth every penny
