FS: Starting Point Systems DAC3 battery dac

[Firebottle]

Surplus to requirements, a Starting Point Systems DAC3 battery operated dac.

Extract the pure performance of the last built non-oversampling true 16-bit TDA1543 DAC from Philips®
Provide equally high sound quality on either USB or SPDIF sources thanks to a very innovative reclocker
USB, Optical & Coaxial inputs (a simple press on the button switches them in round-robin fashion)
NO DRIVER Install necessary: uses the stock drivers of your OS: Linux, MacOS, and yes, Windows too (all flavors, XP, Win7/8...) just plug on USB and it's your default sound output !
Frequency indicator (works the same on all inputs) always tells you the REAL sample rate of your source (your computer/transport can't lie to you)
DIR9001 96 kHz SPDIF Receiver
Supports sampling frequencies from 28kHz to 108kHz (continuous range, including non-standard frequencies)
TDA1543 16-bit DAC - the original from Philips®
Passive I/V conversion
No Op-Amp - direct output with 2Vpp (will drive any power amp well)
Huuuge capacitors on the output path provides sub-Hertz cutoff frequency (<0.3Hz on a 10kOhms input)
Three Stage power supply regulation (for a super low background noise level)
Separate voltage regulator for the DAC and the Digital SPDIF receiver (same reason as above)
Battery-powered with dual 9V NiMH batteries
Smart battery charger on-board (quickly charges the batteries when depleted, keeps them charged at low current when idle)
Will Directly drive any power amplifier or preamp
Easy to carry around and make it listen to yours friends
2+ hours of listening on the batteries, if used standalone with spdif source
