    Default FS: M2 Tech Young DAC (Mk1) with Avondale PSU

    I had planned to put this up over the next few weeks, but took some pics of it today in response from a WTB. However not only did the newbie WTB poster try to haggle rather aggressively, he also seemingly won't do PP FF or bank transfer - clearly not appreciating that it's the newbie who has to demonstrate credibility here.

    Anyway having taken the pics I might as well put the listing up, even though there's no rush to sell.

    Bought from Oliver back in May for £350 shipped, I had intended to put this in my study system, but I'm very constrained for space in there and I couldn't quite fit both bits in.

    Well known bit of kit and indeed this is my second one, the first I bought new when it came out.

    Looking for £300 collected for this, add £15 for shipping as the PSU is quite heavy. Comes with the DAC unit, Avondale PSU, decent connecting cable for power supply, and also the original wall wart PSU.

    Apologies for the dust in the pics
