Hailey Posted July 24, 2016 Share Posted July 24, 2016 The greatest DAC under $2k? I haven't heard them all, so I can't say. But, surely, it is a contender for that title. If clean musicality is your thing, Benchmark is your beast. Mine is near-new condition. 9 out of 10. It comes from a pet-free, smoke-free home. The included headphone amp is superlative: I've used it to drive two Sennheiser HD700a simultaneously with effortless dynamics. It comes with the remote, manual, and the balance of my warranty...about three years. $1600 or best offer. Shipping within the continental US and PayPal included. Link to comment

Hailey Posted July 25, 2016 Author Share Posted July 25, 2016 I've just been informed that the warranty does not convey to the new owner. That said, I guarantee its proper functioning upon receipt. I'll also include, for no additional charge, the Signal Cable MagicPower Digital Reference Cable that I've been using with the Benchmark to excellent effect. Link to comment

Hailey Posted July 25, 2016 Author Share Posted July 25, 2016 Yeah I just called technical support with a question, the guy picked up right away. Was cordial and helpful as ever. Just seamless. Kind of like owning a Benchmark. Link to comment
