DACs and Streamers

Here it is, working as a streamer digital transport . Does the job! 
I don't have the original box, but can organise a box with bubble wrap if anyone wants it shipped.

Sonos Connect Gen2
Perfect working condition, and cosmetically very good. 
Does a decent job as a streamer endpoint to connect your 2 channel hifi into Sonos. 
onboard DAC ain't much, and I always had this as a digital transport to external DAC. 
 
Serial number has not been used to claim upgrade credit. Will remove from account for purchaser.
 
 

This was purchased from a SNA forum member a few years ago. 
A great introduction to the Gieseler world of DACs. Kicks serious butt, and a cheap way to get in and see what it's all about.

Pickup in Brunswick. Postage available at buyer's expense.

 

This NAD CI580 is a BluOS (Bluesound) streamer that can run 4 separate audio streaming zones via 4 individual BluOS players. It can be used as a single BluOS streamer and would be great for a whole-of-house audio setup. All controlled via the BluOS application (Android/Apple/Windows).
 
Make an offer 🙂
 
I bought it with the idea of doing a whole-of-house setup but never got around to it. I have been using it as a single BluOS streamer but have recently upgraded to a Bluesound Vault to help digitise my CD collection.
 
I have been using it without any problems until May this year when I bought the Bluesound Vault so I know it is working perfectly.

Can send to an Australian address via AusPost or courier at your expense. Box weight is 5KG and dimensions are 58x33x16 cms.

Fantastic little no frills DAC which shoots well above its price range. Aside from the great audio quality it can be hooked up to virtually anything via USB, optical and coax inputs: something unique at this level. In as new condition, post included. Comes with USB AtoB cable for powering off 5v USB. Ideal for laptop or PC use.

I’m selling my aria streamer with dac, purchased for $ 9950 with 2tb ssd and built in dac.
 
* Selling this as an extremely good streamer /dac.  Note - the internal hard drives have stop functioning so l’ve been using it strictly as a streamer/dac with Qobuz and Tidal, sounds great, software is stable and never drops out- brilliant design and built like a tank.
 
Someone who is more tech savvy than myself may be able to resolve the driver issue. The unit still shows up on the network when the aria app is launched. 

*the silent angel sitting on top of aria is not included.
 
 
 
 

Fantastic streamer that can also be used as a digital pre amp.
 
It uses dual Wolfson WM8740 DAC chips which upsample to 384kHz/24 bit.
 
Happy to audition. 

Only selling as I have just purchased an NAD T778 so longer need this.
 
Comes with remote and bluetooth/wifi dongle. No box or manual.

Precursor to the DA-150, this is an excellent little DAC and headphone amplifier, ideal for a desk setup or in a main HiFi system with speakers. There are two digital filters available that change the sound signature via a button on the front panel. Read more about it here: http://www.adventuresinhifiaudio.com/08/03/2015/luxman-da-100-digital-to-analogue-converter-good-things-in-small-packages/
 
Please note: There is a very minor crackle in the volume pot, only audible when moving volume up or down, usually around the halfway mark. Since the volume knob only works with the headphones, you won't have any issues if connecting the unit to an amp and speakers.
 
There are some very minor cosmetic marks on the unit, visible in the photos. Postage is available Australia-wide, at the buyer's expense. There is no original box, but the unit will be packed very well.

NAIM NDAC in excellent condition.
 
Ground breaking technology and digital audio engineering however are purely academic. Listening to the Naim DAC is something else entirely. Startling in its clarity, arresting in its detail, beguiling in its warmth and inspiring in its rhythm, the Naim DAC seduces from the first note.

Thanks for looking.

I'm selling my incredible Chord Qutest (Black).  It was purchased brand new from Minidisc (Sydney) in September, 2021, and it works perfectly (I've used it as a dual BNC-connected DAC with my Chord M-Scaler). The only reason I'm selling it is because I've recently replaced it with a Hugo TT2.  
 
Original box and accessories are included. I no longer require the 5V iFi iPower X low noise power supply nor the dual Aurealis BNC cables (75 Ohm), so I'll throw in these items too. 
 
Cash on pickup (Annandale NSW) is available, or EFT is fine too.  I'm willing to post it anywhere in Australia at your cost (registered mail only).
 
Happy to answer any questions.

Mytek Brooklyn Dac + in immaculate condition. Works as a Pre amp, DAC , Headphone AMP and Phono stage in one small but well built box. Stereophile product of the year.
 
Pre Amplifier, DAC , phono stage & Headphone Amp
 
HiFi fans are always trying to eek out improved performance from system upgrades. It’s an insidious business to ones wallet sometimes. Maybe not as insidious as Russian Novichok in Salisbury town centre, but obviously ‘wow moments’ can be had in some components which are very much worth it. In this regard there seems no end to how Digital to Analogue Converters (DACs) have improved as technology advances. This predecessor DAC to the current Mytek ‘Brooklyn DAC+’ model is an interesting study of the performance of DACs in the last few years and what’s now possible for the money and what Mytek are all about. It is in these senses that I review this product, and as an early foray into reviewing. 
Mytek are a pro audio firm based in New York with manufacturing capability in Poland. They have specialised in the pro recording market but until relatively recently have entered consumer audio. The Mytek Brooklyn DAC then is of similar specification to devices such as the Benchmark DAC3 HGC.
 
Mytec Brooklyn DAC review : The Mytek Brooklyn has a lovely display and milled front. One of the best!
 
 
All encompassing
 
In simple terms this unit is a solid state pre amplifier to be used with power amplifiers or powered speakers, a headphone amplifier with dual right and left sockets, and ostensibly a DAC, either stand-alone or with pre amp duties using its volume control. As you’d expect it supports CD standard quality audio onwards to high resolution PCM audio formats up to 32bit/384khz, including high resolution DSD (up to DSD256) and MQA. The USB 2.0 input supports files up to this higher bit and sample rates and native DSD up to DSD256, with other digital inputs of lower sample rate DSD over PCM (DoP). It too has RCA inputs for connecting up an analogue source or as a moving magnet (MM) or moving coil (MC) phono stage pre amplifier, and both analogue and XLR outputs. With this specification it’s very much a jack of all trades and the fact Mytek have got all this kit into such a small unit is clearly a feat of good design. The unit has a lovely ‘dimpled’ milled aluminium front panel and the top and bottom cooling holes are punched in the company logo, which is smart too.
This unit prescribes a ‘how many people can you fit in a mini’ approach to using all the space on the back panel for connections. The USB 2.0 input is definitely the one to use and in my tests I connected a very silent Innuos Zenith Mark 2 server using Chord C-USB digital cable and I additionally tried it with a Cyrus Stream X Signature UPNP/DLNA streamer feeding it over coaxial. You can either connect it to the mains via the AC socket and for this purpose I used a Chord Shawline Power cable ,or you can use the 12v DC socket to either a battery supply or one of a number of commercially available linear power supplies. Mytek somewhat cautiously recount that a batter or linear power supply “may have a positive impact on sound quality”. 
Mytec Brooklyn DAC review : Connections tightly use up the rear real estate
The attention to design is no more evident too when you turn the unit on and are confronted with a lovely coloured high resolution OLED display with input buttons on the front panel for making selections in conjunction with the volume control knob. You can change between a simple screen view with the sample rate and bit depth and volume level, or a settings display view to move between all selectable options and with metering displays for RMS and peak levels of both channels. 
 
If you use the unit as a stand-alone DAC you need to turn on bypass mode to set maximum fixed gain output to your volume controlled pre amp, integrated or possibly active speakers. And talking of the volume control, its both of the digital and analogue variants. It initially seems a bit strange that Mytek supply an Apple TV remote but it’s metal construction does compliment the units design. Another neat feature is the ability to change the brightness and colour of the Mytek logo on the front left side panel, great for matching to other non Mytek components in your rack. 
 
 
First sound impressions
Early impressions as a DAC / pre using Cyrus Mono x200 Signature power amps, is that this DAC has a liquidity to it, such that the music seems to flow very well. It’s very transparent with an airy presentation, which is probably its main character, offering realistic sibilance to lispy vocals. It’s not in anyway an in your face analytical sound. Bass is nice, fast and deep, and the overall sound is fast on its attack of music. Experience dictates good gains are often achieved using a linear power supply where you can, and with the Brooklyn DAC this might increase soundstage and imaging to levels more associated or matched to more expensive pre amplifiers with dedicated power supplies. Unfortunately I didn’t have a proprietary power supply to hand at the time of this review. Maybe it would perhaps have been beneficial if a dedicated power supply was made by Mytek for the Brooklyn DAC, as both an upgrade and up-selling opportunity. Trying other aftermarket PSU’s that work with the Brooklyn DAC would be interesting too.
The Brooklyn DAC is at ease with low bit rate recordings as it is with higher resolution material. It’s very good at taking an old CD ripped recording which may be lacking in detail and dynamics, and bringing the recording up to a better standard. This is obvious in some classical recordings and you cannot be anything other than very impressed, particularly as the Mytek creates a level of insight into music with this openness and airiness. This makes music very real and satisfying. Having once experienced it is hard to go back to any lesser standard.
 
 
Mytec Brooklyn DAC review : Lovely high resolution display and very pleasing!
Feeding it DSD tracks from the Innuos Zenith Mark 2 it certainly took on board extra levels of attack, realism, speed, and naturalness. I compared Tidal MQA masters fed from the Innuos, enabling and disabling MQA in the Brooklyn’s settings to hear immediate effects with the blue MQA detection logo illuminating. I have to say the presentation took on a more natural balanced form in enabling MQA for a full unfold of the MQA file. It was subtle and slight but as if the balance of all components to the music were more discernible and better layered, vocals were in their place and so were accompanying instruments. I think therefore that MQA encoding functionality is worthwhile in this DAC. 
 
Using it just as a DAC into my Cyrus DAC XP Signature and PSX-R power supply combo on pre amp duties, there seemed to be the best of the Mytek’s detail, transparency and airiness, with good soundstage and drive to the music. Compared to my Cyrus DACs, I was definitely still getting more detail, resolving power and speed and the pleasing airy treble was still there. It struck me that this is a DAC that would work very well in systems with tonally warm speakers and amps to elevate resolution and transparency and give best balance. This would be my preference in buying the Mytek Brooklyn at least and good system matching is required. To use it with analytical amplifiers or speakers with good treble might be overpowering and in such speaker configurations there are smoother DACs on the market and the airy treble might not be to all tastes. 
 
It was also very responsive to better sources like the Innuos and in not feeding it noisy digital files across bog standard PC type peripheral NAS drives and routers, unsurprisingly it performed much better. The Chord power cable I used helped lower the noise floor too in creating a relatively quieter background.
It didn’t quite have the same dynamic raw realism of a Chord Electronics 2Qute DAC in comparison to its airy presentation, but it’s clearly been voiced with a different sound in mind, so horses for courses. For almost all albums I regularly listen too I thought it terrific and it’s very good on all music types. Playing some fast paced electronic music, it’s very dynamic and fast paced indeed and synths stand out as if they are being played by a synthesiser in situ.
I used the fast roll off filter which provided the best quality sound. In the box are gain jumpers which Mytek report are to be used so output level of the DAC can be reduced by 6db, which appear to be used to gain match with other non Mytek amplifiers. 
 
It’s clear that the Brooklyn DAC works very well as a whole in all the things it does. It’s a kind of fast hatchback car. Like such a car is fast, practicable, and the kids can also sit in the back, the Brooklyn DAC could fit into lots of systems. It’s well designed and made, has very good sound quality on a pound per pound basis, and it ticks lots of boxes. It also beats some similarly priced pre amp DAC combos I’ve heard particularly those with lesser specced and revered DACs, on paper at least. It would work really well with some quality stand-mounts and a decent power amp. This iteration of the ESS Sabre Pro 9018 DAC chip works well too. The new Brooklyn DAC+ model is reported as having the new ESS Sabre Pro 9028 DAC chip, improved analogue input performance, improved phono stage transparency, a better headphone amp, and finally a dual mono analogue path. 
Mytec Brooklyn DAC review – exquisite cases
 
Albeit this is the original model in the range and not the new one, to conclude on the original question of whether a ‘wow moment’ happened, the answer is a resounding yes. Features and sound quality is fantastic for the price, albeit bear in mind the presentation might not be a match for all kit and tastes. I’d heavily recommend looking at the Mytek Brooklyn DAC in the right system, and particularly if the changes in the new model build on this one as would be expected. It would be interesting now to review this model against the Brooklyn DAC + and to form a view about the balance of the newer model.

Dual AK4495 384KHz 32Bit DSD DAC by Ultimate Stars
 
TEXT and images Below From original owner. thank you- Borrowed his images on different filter settings.
 
Here is a dual AK4495 DAC recommended to the original owner by SNAmember @Ozcall (RIP) who fitted Burson opamps into the DAC.
I had been interested in the work that @Ozcall had been doing, building and modding gear, and was aware of his great reputation on SNA with his innovative ways of seeking out great sounds. When I saw this DAC for sale with his fingerprints on it I couldn't resist.
 
This was in my main system for some time and I got a lot of pleasure out of it. I love the options of the various filters to get the most out of different genres and tracks, as well as the ability to play high res music up to 384KHz/32BIT and DSD64 and DSD128. Recently however, I have been focussing on Philips based TDA1541 and TDA1540 DACs so am considering moving this one on to a new person.
I tested all inputs and settings prior to posting for sale. It sounds fantastic with 44.1K, and high res sounds incredible. I ripped some of my vinyl to 192K/32BIT to listen via roon when ease is key (call me crazy), and listening to it through this DAC. I was really surprised at how much warmth, detail and similarity to the analogue original came across, not to mention other high res tracks sounding amazing.
 
Input Support:
Coaxial: 44.1K-192K 24BIT
Fiber(Optical): 44.1K-192K 24BIT
USB (XMOS XU208 card): 44.1K-384K 32BIT / DSD64, DSD128

Selling Ayon S10 Mk2 XS Streaming DAC Preamp - the latest version, very rare find on the second hand market. 

This Ayon streamer DAC and preamp combo with Tube output stage is very unique on the digital hi fi market. The minimal signal path concept and a two tubes marries digital and analogue worlds perfectly.
No matter what source you use: Tidal, Qobuz, Roon and even Spotify result is consistent dense and resolving sound with a hint of warmth coming from high quality tubes present in analog output stage.

Ayon is a brand known mostly in ultra high end circles and very rare on the second hand market. If you interested, read this review of one of the sibling product - it explains well design philosophy and concepts. https://www.highfidelity.pl/@main-1306&lang=en

Ayon comes with remote, which is designed to make it possible to control unit 100% from remote bypassing the app. Speaking of the latter, Ayon app is available for iOS and Android, it is versatile if your preference is to control via app.

I have this unit for a year or so, but it only has 400 hours on the clock, so plenty of tube life and there is only two tubes anyway. Selling as I'm moving house soon and won't have dedicated audio room and so downsizing.

This Ayon can be used as pure analogue pre amp or network streamer or DAC or mixture of all 3.

Pickup from North Ryde or Gosford area, can post at agreed cost (original packaging is available)

Vintage Western Electric WE REP 120C Transformer
Most people add this for the DAC and Cd as buffer 
the sound is much much more angalog  , I don’t know why ? May be this is the mystery of WE transformer . 
 
as I use tidal streaming music , it make the sound more analog like for sure 👍 

Price includes shipping and sellers fee.

this is one my favourite DACs that I've owned. im selling it reluctantly....i need funds so it needs to go. there are plenty of reviews and the brand is renowned. presents as new and comes in original box.
 

Highly versatile streamer and server with four possible outputs. The elac discovery comes with Roon essentials which gets closer and closer to full Roon since it's original inception and with a much simpler set up, no servers etc are required. The quality of sound from analogue out is very good, better than I experienced from a bluesound node 2i I would say with a huge perk of being able to a roon server also. This is cheaper than a lifetime Roon license! 
 
Han's goes into great detail about why this is a great unit. There is a very positive Stereonet review too:

Couple very small blemishes but hard to capture due to the finish. No manuals or boxes but can pack safely if needed.
 

Purchased a few years ago from an sna member. Very well built as you would expect from this Japanese manufacturer
 Thanks for viewing. 

Wiim Pro streamer, brand new, only taken out of box to test function. Excellent unit that needs no introduction, I use one in my main setup and find it very good [equivalent to a Node if both connected to same external DAC] and I was planning a desktop setup with the second but ….. change of plans. Comes with all original packaging and accessories, postage within Australia included in price. Any questions please ask.
