firedog Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 The newest version doesn't use the MSB chips, it has proprietary technology, so I'm a bit confused about what unit this is. This is a "new" unit of the older type? Main listening (small home office): Main setup: Surge protector +>Isol-8 Mini sub Axis Power Strip/Isolation>QuietPC Low Noise Server>Roon (Audiolense DRC)>Stack Audio Link II>Kii Control>Kii Three (on their own electric circuit) >GIK Room Treatments. Secondary Path: Server with Audiolense RC>RPi4 or analog>Cayin iDAC6 MKII (tube mode) (XLR)>Kii Three . Bedroom: SBTouch to Cambridge Soundworks Desktop Setup. Living Room/Kitchen: Ropieee (RPi3b+ with touchscreen) + Schiit Modi3E to a pair of Morel Hogtalare. All absolute statements about audio are false Link to comment
FATHER Posted April 3, 2016 Author Share Posted April 3, 2016 I specifically asked for MSB Signature modules. Bought the unit in 2015, tested once some DSD files and since then is sitting in the box. The machine is unused... Link to comment
audio.bill Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Just for clarification a unit cannot be "brand new" and "unused" if you opened it and used it to test some files. It should be listed as being in "like new" condition. Good luck with the sale, it's reputed to be a superb DAC! Link to comment
FATHER Posted April 5, 2016 Author Share Posted April 5, 2016 a unit cannot be "brand new" and "unused" if you opened it and used it to test some files. That would be entirely accurate if we were talking about a virgin woman... I didn't have the chance to test the DAC in the shop because it was shipped to me. Simple as that. It is not sealed but it is brand new, sitting in the box, unused. And do not forget the lifetime warranty. A simple phonecall to Rockna Electronics will answer all the questions . "Like new" is when the owner is taking good care of the equipment. Different story. I'll let the people decide... PS And yes, it is a superb DAC. Too bad i need to sell it... Link to comment

FATHER Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 My new home is smaller than the old one and because we kept the furniture, there is no room for the audio equipment. My rig is in the garage, in boxes. We were about to redecorate but meanwhile a serious medical problem occured in the family and i have to sell everything i can... Link to comment

ysound Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Do you know if there is an internal voltage switch that will allow the DAC to operates in 120V? Thanks Link to comment
