SOLD Against my wifes wishes, I decided to upgrade and sell my personal Spoiler DAC. I am selling to generate cash for Vapor Audio speakers I want to buy. This is a 6922 tube output DAC that uses dual PCM1704 D/A chips. Because of these chips, it is limited to 24/96 and lower sample-rates. The standard version of this DAC sold originally for $5999.00. The tubes in it are Siemens CCA grey-plates with better than NOS life. They are better than specs by a lot. These cost over $450.00 for the pair. The output caps are a combination of V-Cap oils and Penta Teflons costing around $400.00 my cost. 12 or 14 Black Gate FK's on the motherboard. All rectifiers are soft-switching HEXFREDs.
This Spoiler now has an Off-Ramp 5 embedded inside and can be used as a USB converter as it provides BNC output (RCA adapter included) as well. It has 2 inputs, Async USB and S/PDIF coax via RCA connector. Single-ended left and right RCA outputs. The USB interface is internally coupled with I2S to the D/A chips. The OR5 has the S/PDIF Hynes reg option. The I2S is powered from the main Hynes reg on the USB module.
The DC power for the internal Off-Ramp 5 is provided via external DC connector and a standard AC adapter is included. This can also be powered from a Hynes supply. That is why the power is external. Better anyway.
This Spoiler also includes a Short-Block USB filter.
