Jakeyb77_Redux Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Item Condition: Very good used Shipping Options: Pickup available and you can audition.,Shipping is available at agreed cost. Suburb or Town: Carrum Downs State: VIC Payment Method: PayPal EFT Cash Reason for selling: NLR Further Information: https://www.gieseler.com.au/product-page/m19d-fein-dac-ii I love Clay’s DACs and AKM chips. And this DAC is just sweet sounding as you’d expect. AKM chips are unavailable now so this is an opportunity to grab one. There are 4 small dots of colour on the lid from the previous owner had some rubber feet on top. You could buff them out. I didn’t see them in the rack at all. Plenty of info on SNA and online. They don’t come up for sale to often as people tend to keep them. RRP was $2000 from the website: This is a special enhanced version. All the monolithic regulators have been replaced with a discreet shunt design. Also the microprocessor & display have seperate internal transformers for power to reduce noise entering the analog circuits. The M19D, "Fein DAC II" is our new upgraded replacement for the M18D, now featuring an integrated high quality low-noise power supply for a marginal increase in cost. Serving as our midrange Digitial to Analog Converter (DAC) utilizing the AKM 4493EQ DAC chip, this state of the art chip improves on previous models with both new features and improved performance. The Fein DAC showcases audio filters for DSD playback and features a new low-dispersion filter for PCM playback. As the new 2019 mainline DAC of Gieseler Audio, we hope you'll enjoy even greater performance at an even lower cost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The factory has been rebuilt and they've been in business for at least the past year making them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
