    Not trying to bust your balls here, but NOS means New Old Stock so the condition should be new and unused correct? So why ask the condition? Just curious.

    I have a NOS monica II DAC that I will part with. send me a pm if interested. I cant send you a pm or email because you have to change things in your profile for me to do this.

    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D

    My AudioNote DAC Kit 1.1 non-oversampling dac is awesome. Might want to keep an eye out for one of those.
