Benchmark DAC1 PRE, excellent condition (would be mint if it was still sealed in the box) with box, manual, accessories. I bought this about 3-4 months ago, I'm the original owner. The DAC/PRE features 1 line-level analog input for you vinyl jockeys out there--or other analog input such as an SACD player. 1 Toslink input, 1 USB input, and 3 coaxial digital inputs--all selectable from the front.

Why am I selling? Because my lazy **** wants the Benchmark DAC1 HDR for its remote.

Stereophile called this DAC/preamp "as good as it gets."

Conus only, no paypal. I stand behind what I sell, this unit is in impeccable condition sonically, electrically, and physically. It is the silver-face version, non-rack mount style.

$1100 Shipped.

First COMMITMENT to buy gets it.

    My kids are 26 & 28--threw their asses out long ago, hence the need for a remote. :D

    Is the DAC still for sale or is that 'withdrawn' statement referring to your sale status? If so, could you please let me know via email? michaelprowell@gmail.com
