Moved away from Roon and computer based streaming, therefore selling off all my kit.

I used this late 2014 Mac Mini as my Roon Core as well as end point (with a reclocker I'm also selling) to great effect

Spec is indicated in images below and also a link to the Uptone Audio conversion that this Mac has seen. I bought it this way so can't tell you when it was done sorry but all works exactly as it should.

It has also has CAD software installed that maximises the audio quality and disables all unnecessary software that is simple to turn on and off. There is a message regarding keychain that pops up which I just cancel and ignore but I can't seem to remove - maybe someone a bit more tech savvy will know about this but neveer been a problem for me.

Currently running iOS 10.11.6 (CAD software is advised not to run on any spec above this) with Roon 1.7 I believe (not tried new version as I no longer subscribe) with no problems.

Comes as Mac and PSU only.

Will be suitably packed as the PSU weighs a ton.

Looking for £295 delivered to UK mainland addresses only.

This is back up for sale as the previous buyer retuned to me advising of an issue.

It's basically a prompt for Keychain (passwords that the IOS remembers) that pops up every few seconds. You just cancel it and eventually it goes away. Was never an issue for me as I only used the machine to be the Roon Core which it did fantastically.

It's probably an easy fix to get rid of the pop up box to someone that is a bit more tech savvy than myself, but with this in mind, the package is now offered up for sale at an amazing £150 plus P&P or I may be interested in swapping for a DAC of similar value.
