This unit is new, I pretended to use it but later I came up with different plans.
Regular price is 399 USD, my sale price is 339 USD shipping included (Registered mail post)
I do not know how could you pay, maybe Paypal if it's fine for you or maybe I can ask someone in US to charge your card. I do not know.
Best of 2009:
http://www.enjoythemusic.com/magazine/equipment/1009/best_of_2009.htmThe devilsound DAC v2, predecessor to the current v2.1, was given a Best of 2009 award by Enjoy the Music.com! "Even when compared to a much higher-priced DAC, such as the Bel Canto DAC3, the Devilsound ranks very well. The DAC3 has a blacker background with no hint of noise, as well as a slightly more dynamic overall presentation. But the Devilsound is its equal in terms of depth, soundstage width, and even low-level inner detail. I was especially impressed with how well the Devilsound matched the DAC3 in terms of three-dimensionality and imaging palpability."
Check out Positive Feedback Online's article on "Getting your bang for the buck". They pair the devilsound DAC with the innovative Virtue Two amplifier, for a killer low-cost (and tiny!) audiophile setup, "... and well the music rocks! This stuff offers the listener so much for so little that it is scary funny." Read more ...
"... the Devilsound DAC sounds incredibly pleasing to the ear. The top end is smooth and unobtrusive, and the soundstage offers depth alongside definition; it's a remarkably pleasant playback path. I stacked the DAC against various convertors from RME, Digidesign, MOTU and Presonus—all at least five times the price of the DAC. And I've got to say it sounded very sweet. For a 'listening' system, i.e., one that you'll have playing for appreciation of recordings, the DAC will be very hard to beat." – Brad Watts, Audio Technology Magazine, Issue 63
"This DAC simultaneously brings you into the future of audio playback while taking you back to simpler times when a couple pairs of RCA cables were all you needed. If you have an open USB port and an open set of RCA inputs in your audio system you owe it to yourself to take a serious look at the Devilsound DAC." – Chris Connaker, computeraudiophile.com (click for full
The DAC digital audio cable
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEW - Version 2.1 Building on the solid foundation of the v2 DAC, the v2.1 features clear improvements in tonality. Cryogenic treatment results in smoother, cleaner presentation, with greater instrument detail and a more realistic sound stage. For technical details on the DAC, see the devilsound DAC design page.
A merger between the computer audio and audiophile worlds, the DAC brings the highest quality components and advanced audio circuitry to your home computer (PC or Mac), giving you amazing audio play back with plug and play simplicity.
Through clever design and meticulous engineering, the entire sound card circuitry has been engineered to fit into a single USB to RCA cable. Simply plug one end into your computer, and the other into your stereo for clean, clear sound.
The devilsound DAC bypasses your computer's built-in sound card, bringing the benefits of an audiophile grade digital to analog converter to your computer, with single cable simplicity.
The non-oversampled (NOS) output stage puts minimal processing between you and your music. By eliminating the harsh digital filtering used in most commercially available audio devices, the devilsound DAC creates exceptionally open, natural sound. The DC-coupled output insures exact reproduction of low frequency notes, with no time-smearing.
The result is clear, detailed audio, with deep, articulated bass.
"Excellent sound quality, reasonable price, and absolutely simple to use." – Computer Audiophile
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Careful design and meticulous engineering allows the entire circuit to fit within a beautiful aluminum enclosure, less than 2 cubic inches in size.
USB, plug and play. Compatible with virtually any computer (PC, Mac, and Linux).
Built-in high quality RCA cables complete the devilsound DAC. The analog output is carried by pure silver interconnects, terminated with Eichmann silver bullet plugs.
The double-sided circuit board inside combines the highest quality components with a proven audio architecture for incredible sound. Click here for more details.
Cryogenic - new for v2.1. A long kept secret in the audiophile world, cryogenic treatment results in a dramatic improvement in sonic clarity and detail.
The devilsound difference is in the non-oversampled (NOS) output stage. The result is greater separation between instruments, truer transient response, and well-defined bass lines.
Manufactured lead-free, RoHS compliant in the USA. All DACs are sold with a 60 day unconditional money back guarantee and a one year warranty.
