How old is your unit and what saving is this on the cost of a new unit?

 

Thank you.

The BP DAC is 4.5 years old and it has all the latest upgrades.

 

I am not sure of the current retail price in Australia, and so suggest you do some checking.

 

Thanks

Big fat Jupiter caps, large transformers, big filter chokes, tube rectification, all copper chassis, and a NOS Phillips TDA1543 R2R chip with no digital filtering or upsampling!  Nice!
