Up for sale ia a Black Audio Research DAC-8 D/A Converter.This is one of the best sounding DACs that I have ever heard (and I heard a lot of them).
It is on the warm side of neutral, very easy to listen to, wide and deep soundstage and it makes the speakers disappear.
If I didn't have (and need) a DAC/Streamer combo, I would have kept it, without hesitation. The DAC-8 with black front don't come up for sale often. Unfortunately it is not perfect. The print under the power button has the leter 'e' and 'r' rubbed off a little. On top there are a few light scratches, that I bet you won't see from a foot or 2 away. The left top corner of the left handle on the front has a small scuff, which you wouldn't have noticed if I didn't mention it. It seems like a lot, but when you see it in person, it isn't all that bad.
See pictures. It ships in its original Double Box.
The remote is a Logitech universal remote, programmed to work with the DAC-8. As thank you for your loyal business over the years I am offering a 60 day Warranty on the DAC-8 for buyers inside the USA.
It covers the same as the original Audio Research Warranty. These usually sell for $2500 - $2700, but because of the small blemishes and not having the original remote I am selling this one for less. MSRP $4,999, asking $1999.99.
