Up for sale is an Auralic Gemini 1000 (new price is US$1199), which is very rarely seen in the used market. Has original boxing.
Was purchased new in June 2017 - white colour with silver base.
The Gemini 1000 has been compared favourably by head-fi'ers with the Auralic Vega / Taurus stack, and also to the Chord Hugo. It also has a favourable review from Srdjan at 6moons. The headphone stand itself costs $400!

The Gemini 1000 version gives up very little to the Gemini 2000, which makes the 1000 a real bargain.
It is an excellent DAC + Headamp... AND a top notch headphone stand all in one.
Inputs: USB (Windows, OSX, Linux), optical, 3.5mm line-in
Output: 6.3mm Headphone Jack AND 4-pin XLR
Power: 1000 mW of Class-A power!!
DSD support: YES! Double rate DSD and DXD
Voltage: DC input (universal AC), so will work anywhere
Was servicing my Hifiman HE1000v2 very well, while taking up very small real estate AND storing my headphones stylishly while not in use. But I’ve now sold the HE1000v2, so also looking to sell the Gemini.
Mine is the white version (looks AS new):
