SOLD
Description:
This is kinda a oddball, it is a non-oversampling DAC that doesn't come with a case (for sonic purity). It is one of my favorite DACs below $500, I would keep it but I am downgrading my rigs. It sounds very smooth with powerful bass and great mids. The transformer hums a little bit so I kept mine with acoustic foam on top and on bottom. A detailed description of the Audio Sector vs. other DACs I have tried can be found here with a description of the setup here.
This unit may be familiar if you know Peter Daniel's AudioZone brand. This DAC normally retails for around the $800 range boxed up and assembled. Peter was selling these for $300 unassembled and it was up to the buyer to put them together. This comes assembled but caseless. It was assembled with a BNC input but comes with a BNC -> RCA adapter. The IEC is attached with cardas wire. Assembled with lots of blackgate caps.
This unit has no blemishes to speak of, but yet again it is in the nude.
Terms:
This will be double boxed and shipped insured. This unit will come with a 14 gauge power cord. Accepting Paypal, money order, or personal check. I will only sell to a buyer with verifiable good feedback. I have a feedback on Audiogon, Club Polk, Head-Fi, and Ebay. For sale in the US only.
