Physical Condition:
8/10
The Altair is in perfect condition, except for a pin prick mark on the top.

Functional Condition:
I bought this new from a Canadian dealer that closed its doors and probably had some issues with the Auralic CEO. The serial number was removed by the CEO from Auralic's database. This means that it can't be registered to any account. It does have full functionality and works perfect. The only thing you have to do every now and then is click 'cancel' when the registration screen pops up on the app.
This has been my main audio streamer for quite some time, it functions perfectly and not being able to registered never hindered me.

Home Theater Audio: “THE AURALIC ALTAIR is well worth its $1899 price tag: a technologically advanced dac and high-resolution dsd/dxd network streamer with excellent sound and build quality.”

MSRP $2,098 (Altair plus SSD), I am asking $799.99 (FIRM, it is a good $300 below market due to not being able to register it)
