While developing our Generation II StreamPlayer, we purchased a number of DACs for testing purposes. But we obviously can't listen to more than one at a time. So its time to move at least some of them out. We won't necessarily sell all of them, but we wanted potential buyers to have a choice.
Most of these were used only for testing purposes and have very little time on them. And we took good care of them. Here is a list...
Teac UD-501 - Temporarily unavailablehttp://www.teac.com/product/ud-501/This DAC sells for around $850. It worked right out of the box with our StreamPlayer and I have had no issues with it from the start. It can handle file resolutions up to 24/192 as well as DSD64 and DSD128. It has USB, TOSLINK and coax S/PDIF. It has a silver faceplate.
Mytek Stereo 192-DSDhttps://mytekdigital.com/hifi/products/stereo-192dsd-dac/This sells for about $1695. Mytek got its start designing equipment for recording studios. It is also capable of resolutions up to 24/192 as well as DSD64 and DSD128. The setup capabilities are a bit more technical, but Mytek has a great reputation and this was their flagship DAC until very recently. It has a silver faceplate.
UFO DSD PORTABLE DAChttp://bluecoastrecords.com/special-edition-ufo-dsd-portable-dac-in-blue-coast-blueThis DAC is $399 new. It is a USB-powered portable DAC with preamp and headphone outputs. The large volume knob changes color with changes in file resolution. It handles PCM up to 24/192 and DSD64 and DSD128.
AVA Fet Valve Hybrid DAC - SOLDhttp://avahifi.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=266&Itemid=253]http://avahifi.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=266&Itemid=253]http://avahifi.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=266&Itemid=253This is Frank Van Alstine's top-of-the-line Fet Valve DAC. It sells new for $1899. This was our primary show DAC for a number of years. Normally, this DAC does not have a USB input. But since we wanted to use our StreamPlayer with it, I had Frank add an XMOS USB input to the unit. So it can handle anything up to 24/192 from TOSLINK, Coax or USB.
Take your pickIf you would have use for any of the above DACs, let me know. We can cut you a sweet deal.
