For sale is my Benchmark DAC1, purchased by me new in 2009. This DAC has seen very little use. It was the interface to my audio system from my PC music library. I have used the toslink input (from a Sound Blaster Audigy Rx sound card) and the coax input (with my last ASUS Xonar Essence), with no ground loop feedback issues whatsoever (unlike a USB unit I tried briefly). I used the balanced output ports exclusively. I can verify these configurations work perfectly.This DAC is unblemished, pristine clean, and 100% functional as-new. I would estimate total usage at less than 50 hours...my vinyl system sees more use in one week than this unit has seen during the entire time I've owned it. Also note that I unplugged this DAC from the mains when it was not being used. If the buyer pays my asking price I will also include a genuine Benchmark 1-meter RCA to BNC coax cable, which I used with the ASUS sound card, at no charge. Please note that USPS and Canada Post money orders are acceptable payment.
