This is a great bit of kit.  A quality CD player, a fine DAC with numerous digital inputs, as well as analogue inputs enabling the unit to run as pre-amp.   A damn handy machine for the price, especially with balanced outputs.

 

If you don't believe me, then read some  reviews .....

I purchased this via SNA about 6 months ago from @Snoopy8 when I re-entered the world of my audio obsession. This was first bit of new gear to get me started, but I quickly found that I moved to streaming digital files rather than playing the actual CD - I really didn't anticipate that.    But as a result, this unit didn’t get used anywhere near enough.  It really needs to go someone who will use it, rather than sitting around in its box.

 

The only marks that I can see on it (apart from the fingerprints), are 1 small scratch on the upper right of the faceplate, and 3 tiniest of nicks in the top rim of faceplate.  .... I'd frankly never noticed them, until right now !  

 

It comes in its original box with manual, remote & cable.  I’d prefer local pick up for convenience (NE Melb ‘burbs), but it can be shipped at purchasers cost.

 

In the interest of full disclosure, the unit has recently been serviced by Audiolab service techs and the firmware has been upgraded.  Since its return, I’ve opened the box & checked it.

 

The photos don't really do it justice  .... happy to answer any questions
