NO LONGER FOR SALE: Peachtree Nova - Black
« on: 3 Oct 2011, 12:02 am »
I am selling my Peachtree Nova pre-amp/DAC/amp combo, in black.  This is a replacement unit I received (under warranty) last December (which it turned out, the Nova didn't have a problem. . .just me :P ).  It is Rev. 1.8.  I just pulled it out from the cabinet and was unable to find any scratches.

I have only used this unit as a pre-amp and DAC.  It works and sounds great!  I am only selling because I plan to record my own music in as hi-rez a format as possible and the Nova's DAC does not convert hi-rez. (I am considering a work-around, so I may change my mind on this sale. . .)

Here are the specs:

Amp
ST mos-fet amp modules
80w/ch at less than 1% distortion in to 6 ohms
Internally wired like Sigma Servo control (two wires from amp to terminal) for better damping 

PreAmp
 Hybrid tube design (6922)
 6.5V output @ 2.0V input
 <30 Ohms at the output stage
 Class A output stage
 Switching relays in the signal path
 Polypropylene caps in the signal path
 

Headphone Amp (shared with the Pre-Out stage)

Suitable for all electro-dynamic headphones
Frequency response: DC ~ 100 kHz +/- 0.1dB
Voltage gain: 10dB
Maximum output voltage: 7Vrms
output impedance: <30ohms
Maximum output power: 100mW into 8Ohm / 300mW into 150Ohm / 150mW into 300Ohm
Class A output stage
6922 Tube is in circuit

DAC

5 digital inputs 1- USB, 2 coax, 2 optical 
24/96 upsampling  ESS9006 DAC
11 regulated power supplies
Organic capacitors
Class A output stage
Transformer coupled digital Inputs for ground isolation
Galvanically isolated USB stage. 
>122db S/N 
<1picosecond jitter  measured at the Master Clock (Super Clock)

Here is a link to the Nova page:  Peachtree Nova

I am asking $850.  I will cover insured shipping (to the lower 48).  It will be shipped in its original box.

Thanks!

I completely forgot to look into the differences in revisions, however. :oops:  I will look into it and post soon.

Hi,

Is this unit still available, and have you looked into the different revisions as of yet?

Thanks.

Yes, it is still available.  I very recently sent an e-mail asking about the revisions.  I will post what I find out.

Regarding revisions, here's the response I received today:

"The major changes are adjusting the jitter tolerance on optical 2 input to allow high jitter network audio players, such as the Airport Express to play without dropouts.
 
Other changes are for input switching reliability."

At least for now, I am taking this off the market.  I just bought a house and will be moving in a month.  I will figure out what I will do with this (sell or keep) once I get settled in.
