    So yours doesn't have the front panel switch like the AA photo, but it is the "new" version of the DIP vs. the older style case?

    Sorry no.I have the 24/96.It does have the newer style case though.Here are a few pics I just took for you brock.Sorry for the bad quality but it should give you a general idea.I highly suggest a good power cord .I built a 4 ft DH labs power plus cable terminated with an IeGO silver plated plug set and it made a world of difference.

    Your pics are correct. The old add on AA said the combo version upsamples to 48k.

    Ok, got it. Let me think on it. My brother has had one for years and I've always said I was going to get one. Still contemplating the Op-amp/cap upgrade for the DAC.

    Thanks

    Jitter reduction and It improves the performance of the outboard DAC you already own by supplying it with a better quality, higher-resolution digital signal.

    Hrmmm... wish my DAC wasn't toast, i'd pick this up. Thanks for the explanation, i thought that's what it was, just wasn't positive.

    Thanks, and good luck with sale! :)

    What happened to your DAC?

    I very well may be selling my adcom GDA-600 DAC sometime in the near furture.Wont be sure till I have a chance to compare it to another DAC I plan to buy from another member to try out.

    FYI--The monarchy DIP and the adcom DAC have great synergy.IMHO.

    Yes,I am brand new on this site,I joined to be able to enquire about your unit.I know that shipping is expensive but I think,being small and light,it should not be too bad,maybe around 50 or 60 dollars maybe? Do you have any idea?

    Fred, if you have a bonafide seller, go for it. At this time I have some other things in the works so please don't let me stand in the way of your sale.

    Hi again
    We run on 220v mains over here.It looks like the unit is switchable between 110 and 230v
    I dont see an external switch.I presume that there is an internal one.Can you confirm this?Most people rave about the unit.What are your impressions on what it did for your sound?
    I have a Rotel rdd980 transport and rdp dac front end running into a vintage Luxman tube preamp [CL-34] and a Rega Maia power amp.I feel that my sound is already quite open and airy with good soundstage and imaging but I am sure that this unit will take it to the next level.

    considering that you are asking 200 dollars shipped,which I take to mean within the US,would you discount your price by a rough equivalent when taking shipping to S.A. into account?

    There doesnt seem to be an internal switch or jumper to set the unit to 220v.You probably have to order it with a 220v option.Sorry.
