Great sounding Simaudio Headphone Amplifier and DAC. Very detailed and smooth sound all at once. Currently sells for $1950. It is in perfect working and cosmetic condition.
Used in a non-smoking/no pets environment.This is a versatile unit with an excellent sounding DAC (it can be by-passed if one wants to) and can also be used as a fine pre-amp. Reason for selling? I'm moving up to its bigger brother the 430 HAD. It will be carefully packaged and shipped in the original Simaudio box. Preferred method of payment: EMT
Byer pays shipping Thanks for looking! Excellent reviews: Hifi +: "For those who want a big taste of what top-tier headphone amp/DACs are all about, yet without paying a full on, top-tier price, the 230HAD is worthy of serious consideration." "[T]he 230HAD serves up a hearty, vigorous, and expressive sonic presentation that centres upon, and is built around, a well developed, open-sounding midrange. There is the sense, always, that the 230HAD is capturing the energy and vitality inherent in good recordings and conveying these qualities with appropriate (but never exaggerated) verve. There are excellent levels of midrange, upper midrange, and treble detail as well, though it is that overriding quality of ‘aliveness’ that consistently catches and holds the listener’s attention." Stereophile: "I enjoyed all my hours with the Simaudio 230HAD—mainly because it rocked the rude boys, loved Henryk Szeryng, and taught me well about Chesky's recordings. If your headspace listening is in need of an upgrade, the Simaudio Neo 230HAD is an absolute must-audition." The Headphoneer: "The Moon 230HAD has a great headphone amplifier section. With some headphones it is exceptional: I adored it with the Sennheiser HD650, and I think it is great with the HE1000. I found it enjoyable with every headphones I tried. And it is dead quiet. Where the Moon 230HAD amplifier really excels is in the midrange. Vocals are always great. The 230HAD has a velvety, honey-like midrange quality that not many solid state headphone amplifiers possess. [...] If you are looking for a a versatile, remote controllable headphone amplifier that gives you that liquid, full bodied midrange and works nicely with a wide range of headphones, the Moon 230HAD might be just for you."
