EXPIRED Musical Fidelity A3.5CD 24 bit upsampling CD player

[Anthony Thompson]

Original owner, purchased new in December 2005 (have original purchase receipt). Meticulous owner with no scratches or marks of wear on case work or remote, and unit and remote function faultlessly. Only selling as I am upgrading to a dedicated CD transport for my separate outboard DAC. Includes remote, stock power cord, owners manual and I have the original packing materials with double box carton and foam inserts for safe transportation/delivery.

 

A highly musical player with a 24 bit Delta-Sigma (Bitstream) Dual differential DAC with 8x oversampling, which upsamples to 96 kHz. Unbalanced pair of RCA audio outputs and two digital outputs (1 optical (Toslink) and 1 S/PDIF (RCA connector)). I have been using the S/PDIF digital output to a Chord DAC fyi.

 

Priced to sell ASAP, but I am willing to negotiate reasonably. Can demonstrate in person as it is currently connected to my system. Prefer pickup but postage interstate can be accommodated as I have original packaging. Will accept cash on pickup or direct bank transfer into my account, but NO PAYID please.
