Steve M Posted October 4, 2019 Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) Item: Audio GD CD-7 Transport and Nuforce DAC 9 Digital-to-Analog Convertor Location: Perth WA Price: $850 for both or can split items @ $425 each, though preference given to selling the units together. Item Condition: Good and works as they should. Reason for selling: surplus Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: For sale is a very nice sounding combination of Audio GD CD-7 Transport and a Nuforce DAC 9. The units retailed @ RRP $1,200 USD for the Transport and $1,695 USD for the DAC 9, so around $4,000 AUD total. The CD transport is massively built with separate regulated power supplies and includes outputs in both current and voltage modes, meaning that it can be used for optimum effect with current mode amplifiers like the Bakoon products. The Nuforce DAC 9 is a very detailed refined sounding dac that has many handy features and lots of connectivity including a full sized headphone socket with volume control for headphone listening. Here's a good review: https://www.ultraaudio.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=205:nuforce-dac-9-digital-to-analog-converter&catid=37:full-length-reviews&Itemid=2 " The NuForce DAC-9 is one of those all-too-infrequent products that is a true giant-killer, and whose performance must have put a collective smile on the faces of those who designed and built it. At its full retail price of $1695 USD, I think NuForce offers consumers a stonking good deal. Even if its headphone amp, volume control, and upgradeable USB input weren’t part of the package, I’d still think the DAC-9 a killer D/A converter that sounds absolutely great, and that I could easily put in my rack long-term. I found myself jotting "sounds like analog" in my trusty Moleskin more times than I would have thought possible. The DAC-9, born at a very reasonable price into a world of ever-increasing, high-quality downloadable music, may have many manufacturers of mid-level turntables looking over their shoulders. " Local buyers can audition the units in my home. Cheers, Steve. Quote Edited October 4, 2019 by Steve M 1
