Highly rated and great sounding device using ESS9038 Pro chips. I've not liked most ESS based dacs I've heard but this has been my main dac for a while.

It has a line input and volume so can be used as a pre into a power amp or active speakers, or the volume can be bypassed to use as a standalone dac/streamer into a pre or integrated.

It's worth the price just as a dac but the native Spotify connect app works and it can be used as a uPnP/DLNA streamer with mConnect or BubbleuPnP apps. I controlled it with the Android app which is still available online. It has WiFi, Bluetooth and Apple Airplay (untested as I have an android phone).

I have the original box so postage is not an issue. Otherwise it can be collected from N London (not far from the M25 if you are outside). Meetup in central London also possible.

Asking a fair £375 plus postage.

thanks Lawrence. I would be interested in this. Have just moved house and waiting for speaker cables to be sorted as old ones too short on one side. Once that is done and system is up and running i will get in touch. If someone else wants it in the meantime please let them have it. Cheers, Richard

Thanks Richard no rush on my part. Maybe you could do with my 5m Acoustic Zen Satori speaker cables as well!

Sorry just under 5m at 15 feet.
