DAMNED economy maybe forcing my hand. I'm having to sell off equipment due to financial needs. Honestly, don't want to part with this DAC. It lives up to all it's hype!!!!!
For sale is a Wyred 4 Sound DAC2 24/192K Asynch. USB DAC. DAC is in excellent condition and comes with original box, manual & remote. The DAC works perfectly. Black face. Looking for $1200. Will consider a REASONABLE offer.
I'm kinda hoping that I can tell the wife that this one didn't sell

    I don't think I have ever saw the dac2 for under $1300. Great price and this should be gone in 24 hours

    Tonyb,
    I guess I need to update my signature line, the tube buffer is already gone. Sorry! I know what you are saying is the best advise, but we need fast $$$$$$ to take care of a situation and the Dac 2 has the best possibility of getting the $$$$ we need in the time we need it.

    PS will be updating my current equipment line. Tonyb thanks for the good advice though

    DMara,
    Seller's change of heart is a real possibility if this doesn't sell fast, I'm fighting myself not to pull this one back

    Great DAC.

    I'd say GLWYS, but I hope it doesn't sell either. :cheesygrin:

    OK......this sh** is crazy. I tossed and turned all nite over selling this Dac2. It's unbelievable how the music gets into your soul. I've decided not to sell my best piece of musical equipment. Therefore the DAC 2 is no longer for sale. I needed to make the decision b4 someone made an offer, because I would have been obligated to let it go.

    Thanks to everyone who talked me down from jumping!
