Specifically, the system includes the following components. In compiling the list, I referenced old emails, Audiocircle posts and private messages, and Paypal payment details.

1.   Prototype BOLDER/Bent/Burson control center, which comprises:

•   6 input remote source controller (6 RCA Inputs + tape out + main out + sub out) employing high quality, sealed relays;

•   Relay-operated volume control employing Naked Vishay 102s;

•   Pair of modified Burson Buffers (6 total db of gain);

•   Modified Burson power supply; and

•   Custom R-core power transformer.

2.   BOLDER-Modified Squeezebox 2 with rough equivalent of the Statement Mods, including:

•   Gold bybee in the analog output section;

•   Platinum and Gen 2 Sonicaps in the output section;

•   Black Gate caps for all internal power supplies; and

•   Liberal ERS fabric.

3.   Original BOLDER Ultimate Power Supply, with 4 Bybees and the Nirvana Regulator.

4.   BOLDER Summit DC Cable (6 feet in length).

I have hyperlinked images of the components below. Please note that I have the antenna for the SB2; it is not pictured, however.

Cheers!

It's a nice turn-key solution for a clean, computer based audio system. I have to finish a basement listening room / home theater otherwise I'd be interested.

Good luck with the sale.

This unit really sounds great with SBs or other sources with similar output. I just couldn't use it with my LOMC/phonostage output. At $750 it is a total heist.

Agree. I also believe that Bent Audio's decision to no longer produce the TAP units only augments the unit's value. Auction closes Monday eve.
