DACs and Streamers

Plenty of excellent reviews on line.
Comes with original remote and double box packaging.
Excellent full working order, audition available.

This is a Bricasti M3 DAC including the optional headphone amp (balanced and single-ended) and streamer (ethernet) options. It is the version with the latest MDx processor. Purchased new from the Australian distributor (Studio Connections) in September 2021.
 
Excellent condition with all original packaging and invoice provided. Current RRP is $11,495 for the DAC alone, without headphone amp or streamer (which at the time of purchase were an additional $1,740 and presumably more now). Note this does not come with the remote (which can be purchased separately).
 
This is one of the best DACs I have owned with a neutral, detailed but musical sound, and excellent soundstage and separation. The headphone amp is powerful and the streamer is Roon ready with no dropouts or other issues experienced. I have also used it as a preamp with active speakers. The build quality is also the best I’ve experienced with any audio equipment. Overall, an excellent all-in-one device.

Happy to provide any further info.
 
Local pickup preferred due to the size and value, but happy to arrange shipping at buyer's cost. Any Paypal fees are also at the buyer's expense.

Selling a new Vega S1. Opened for testing. Replaced by the distributor and just got the NEW unit this week from Audio Connection (where i bought the older one this year). It had an issue when connected to the pure power.

With the new Vega, both are working and sound great.
The pure psu is used. Bought second hand.

Selling both for $1.8k as I am using a different dac and streamer now. Back to separates.

Can be auditioned here at St Peters 2044.
Both come with boxes and accessories.

PRICE DROP - You will NOT get this any lower......anywhere!!!!
 
$2999 down to just $1890 and 99% new?????
 
Almost brand new Heddphone 2 selling VERY cheap!!!!
 
I tried these at Shenzhen audio show this year and was blown away.
 
I bought them blindly when I got back and not sure if it is because they haven't been burned in yet, but they are a tad warm for my tastes. I need tons and tons of treble. They have literally had less than 5 hours on them.
These have great treble but just not quite enough.
Sad to say that everything else about them is near-perfect but alas I'm old and fussy these days.
 
Grab an old bloke's mistaken bargain!!
 
You will not find them anywhere near this price for as-new Heddphone 2s.
 
Can send anywhere in Australia for $35 - they are SUPER heavy!!!!
 
Otherwise come past and demo them for yourself and pickup for free.

It handles high-resolution files like FLAC and WAV with ease and uses a quality onboard DAC to deliver clean, detailed and natural playback. This ex-demonstration unit is in fantastic condition and is super easy to use thanks to Volumio’s intuitive app, giving you smooth access to streaming services and your local music library. With Wi-Fi and Ethernet, plus USB and HDMI connectivity, the Primo V2 drops neatly into almost any system and makes high-quality streaming refreshingly simple.

The Class D amp delivers clean, punchy sound that works happily with a wide range of speakers, and the Volumio interface is intuitive and easy to use.

The Denafrips Iris 12th Edition is a high-performance digital-to-digital converter (DDC) designed to dramatically improve the quality of digital audio signals—particularly over USB. Acting as a precision interface between your digital source (e.g., streamer or PC) and your DAC, the Iris 12th isolates, reclocks, and regenerates the signal using Denafrips’ proprietary FIFO buffering and FPGA-based processing, delivering cleaner, more stable, and lower-jitter digital output.

A great-sounding DAC and a big step up from the Ares or the Pontus. I am the second owner, and the unit is in mint condition, non-smoker and no pets at the house.
Comes with the original packaging, didn't have a power cord; however,r I am happy to include one.

Plenty of reviews online about the DAC
If in Victoria I am happy to audition. Note that the Stack Audio Footers are not included in the sale.
Further images can be added upon request.

Thanks for checking out the Ad.

Well cared DAC, it has served me well. Selling due to upgrade.

We as audiophiles often seek 'giant killer' components. Though the phrase is loosely used, rarely, if ever do we find such elusive equipment. The BDA-3 is one of these rare specimens. An extraordinarily well engineered DAC, the BDA-3 is compatible with virtually any digital source component and features measured performance that is very near the theoretical limit of the digital audio streams it can decode. Such a well executed DAC can resolve the finest details in your digital recording with aplomb. Besides it's superb measured performance, it's a total joy to use and listen to. It is operationally easy to understand and sounds better than anyone could expect. Regardless of your digital audio budget, this should be on your short list.

Very good condition with box, manual, cables, etc

Pick up Frankston or Brunswick.

For sale is Node N130 with PD creative power supply upgrade (also comes with original power supply), all accessories and packaging as well as Geisler upgraded Power Supply. The performance of these combined items is very good value, it sounds better than my previous Nad Master Series 50.2 streamer which retailed at$6999.00 and much better than my previous Naim NDX streamer.

I would prefer pick up but can post.

I may consider separating Geisler and node.

Excellent working and aesthetic condition!

Up for sale is my 280D MIND 2 streaming dac from Moon by Simaudio. The streamer is in mint condition with all the original packaging, accessories and warranty!

10 month old Pontus 15th Dac with factory Remote ($160). A huge step up from the Pontus 11 and Gustard R26, both of which have been in my system. It brings body to music, bass weight with a lovely texture and so forth. Great Dac but not needed as i've gone in a different direction. Freight within Australia in original packaging is included in purchase price. Dac was purchased from Dacman Audio.

Denafrips Pontus II 12th edition R2R DAC. In very good condition. These are a highly regarded DAC. The LED light for the phase control is not as bright as the others, but is still visable to turn on and off (see photo) and does not effect operation. It was like this when I purchased it. No longer required as I am ordering a Lumin P1 Mini and will use the onboard DAC. It has a tiny mark on the top panel, which you can see in photo. I have original box and can post at buyers expense.

Excellent neutral-sounding DAC, traded-in in great working and aesthetic condition.

Final Price drop!!

This awesome recent Flagship Dac from SMSL (there is a new D3R out now) is amazing and in literally AS-NEW condition1

It is only 3 months old and an EXCELLENT DaC

It has about 8 hrs on it maximum.

I am only selling as I have a chance at buying a Gustard R2R Dac which I have always wanted to try.

https://www.smsl-audio.com/portal/product/detail/id/745.html link to the product but if you're here, then you will know how good it is and that under $1000 is a steal!!

Comes with everything as new and is double original boxed for safe shipping.

I have added an Aussie power cable as well for free.

Can post anywhere in Aus for just$25 or pickup on the Surfcoast, Victoria

Ask me anything!!

This is a true bargain as the Harmony Dac is currently retailing for 2.8k usd. I'm including the Uddc in this deal as well which is worth 800 usd. Both units were bought from Laiv direct. They are about over 1 year old. Will provide you with receipt for balance of warranty. Comes with all original accessories. Also have outer boxes for shipping if needed.
