I am offering for sale this Denafrips DAC Pro8 mk1 . This was purchased by me from Allophonics in France . It is a full DAC with five Digital inputs 2 x Coaxial SPDIF 2 x TOSLINK Optical and one USB . It has both balanced and single ended outputs . It also has an input for an offboard power input but i do not have this or any details on what the requirements for this are. There is a standard main input which works anyway .

The unit also has an additional filter mode which changes the filter accessed from the front panel buttons. Please note this is not an R2R DAC and was made before the current ones now being sold. When it was new it was £1400 . The unit is in good condition but I do not have any box or instruction manual this is how it arrived when I bought it. This is a very well built and heavy DAC and is competitive with most current £1000 + DAC's .

This is a very nice sounding DAC which gives what I would describe as a natural tone without any obvious leanings towards any part of the sound . Bass is very good and detailed and it has real texture which shows up acoustic , electric and digital bass for what they are .

I am based in Liverpool and would be prepared to deliver the item within a sensible distance up to about 70 or so miles . Failing that I would pack the unit well and charge post at cost . Looking for £600 for this .

Have to say they look ok to me, high res, can see the top and there's a rear shot.

@walpurgis Please can you be more specific as I did read the rules again and as has been said there are hi res pictures of front / back / each side and I took them myself of the unit for sale any assistance with what I have neglected to do would be helpful .

I think it's a browser issue or something as only the links show for me.

Had this before and if I log in later on the pictures will probably show. Does not seem to be any rhyme or reason to it, but that's computers for you.

Anyway GLWTS.

Just a correction to the original description. This IS an R2R Dac using 8x 20 bit Dac chips with very good performance.

My thanks to Alan for passing on this information and I know he has a much better technical knowledge and ability to read a circuit than I do . When I showed pictures of the circuit to few others they said it was not R2R and I of course believed them as I do not have the skill to argue . So while it is not the same architecture as the current Denafrips DACs it is as has been said an R2R desighn and by common agreement in a recent DAC off in Coventry it was very well liked . As always I am open to offers .
