I'm selling my Music Hall 25.2 DAC which I've owned since new for 1 year. It has been used intermittently in my system during that time (I have a few other DAC's in my system) and is as good as new with not a scratch. Still, I'm considering it 9/10 to be conservative. I'm located in NJ/NY area.
The 25.2 is a versatile DAC that accepts various inputs (USB, AES/EBU, Toslink, and Digital Coax). It has a high quality DAC chip that can be operated in non-upsampled mode (which I prefer) as well as in 96K or 192K upsampled modes. A good way to hear differences in sampling types/rates if the rest of your system allows.
For even more flexibility, it also has a headphone input with volume control.
One of the best features of the 25.2 is that it has a tubed output stage to add a little warmth to the digital sound. It uses a single 6922-series tube and benefits from tube rolling. I will include the original Electro-Harmonix 6922 tube as well as a 1960's era Tesla E88CC tube. Personally, I've had great success using a 1960's era Amperex 7308 tube but that tube is pricey and not included in this sale.
Also comes with original owner's manual, box, & power cord. Buyer to pay actual shipping costs and 3% paypal fees (if applicable).
