Selling my lightly used Matrix Mini-i. Comes with a BNC to SPDIF coax adaptor. Does not come with a remote that the latest versions have. Was some british hi-fi mag's best under 500 pound (USD785) DAC a few years back. Strong reviews otherwhere online & in print as well.
Just something I'm not actively using at the moment and would like the $ to fund other purchases.
Photos to come soon if not sold before then.
No Paypal fee if sent personal / gift. Free USPS priority mail in USA @ $199 asking price.
