edited January 2025 in Going Digital
See here for all the details: https://forum.polkaudio.com/discussion/197750/geshelli-labs-dac-j2 Unit is in the same exact perfect condition as sent/received from this long-time Club Polk member. I will also cover shipping (edit: to the contiguous 48 states ... we can work it out via PM for HI and AK).

I thought I would eventually use it in a second system somewhere, but since making a major upgrade from this DAC a year ago, I find my preference is to only listen with my main system.

This is available to any member with 100 posts, or more, with one request ... please post a review after you have had a chance to listen to it in your rig, good, bad, or indifferent. I will haunt you and call you out here until your death if you don't. (Just want to know it's been put to good use, is all!)

Pick a number between 1 and 100 and I'll draw the winner with a random number generator around noon EST on January 20. But ... I also reserve the right to gift it to some deserving, yet unsuspecting, member upon learning of their interest here, if that's what I wanna do!

Good luck to all!

Brian

    Great Karma --- I think I have enough DACs at this point (two of which have Karmic pasts, so to speak). :blush:

    Fantastic Karma hiding out here in the Going Digital section. Wish I had a use for it. Good luck to those entered.

    Thanks for the bump, Paul!

    I’m never quite sure where to put these Karmas for the best visibility. I’ll make sure it gets back to the top of the Recent Discussions myself a time or two before Monday if it doesn’t happen on its own in the meantime.

    Nice giveaway, but all of my current setups need USB. Not in. Odds are pretty good for those who are though.
    See profile for rigs. Nothing else here.

    There's still time to get in, but this will close at noon EST. I'll post the winner as soon as practical after that, but may be away and enjoying the festivities for a few minutes around that time.

    Good luck to all. I'm happy to see some longer-term and more active members participating in this Karma.
