For sale my Eastern Electric Minimax DAC with upgraded Burson V5 opamps. There are numerous reviews on line which will give you more technical information but basically this has a Sabre ES9018 DAC chip and switchable valve (12au7) or transistor output stage so you can tube roll if that is your bag.
There is quite a bit out there on the forums about opamp rolling for this DAC which inspired me to have a go with the Bursons. A very easy process, lift out the old op amps and insert the new. In my opinion the opamp upgrade produced a considerable lift in performance.
The Minimax also has an analogue volume control so can act as a pre-amp in a digital only system. It's compact size would make it ideal for a second system but it is more than good enough for main system duties. Hopefully you can see from the photos that it is in excellent condition.
Comes with original packing but no manual - there's one online.
I paid £375 for the DAC and another £100 for the opamps so I'm offering it here for £415 including postage to mainland UK or £400 collected.
Thanks for looking.
