View Classified Mac Mini with Uptone 12VDC input & fan controller installed + HDPlex 100W LPS - free shipping Two items: 1. Mac Mini (late 2014, 2.8MHz Core 15, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) with Uptone Audio's 12V DC power supply conversion and linear fan controller (eliminates HF pulsing) installed. See full description in the Information URL. Works perfectly. Drive has been erased per Apple protocol and latest version of OS Monterey installed ready for user configuration. Original stock OEM switching power supply included, as well as Uptone's installation instructions for the conversion kit in case you want to reverse-engineer. This unit has been running beautifully as my primary platform for hi-res playback (JRiver Media Center). I am only replacing it with a new M2Pro Mac Mini to run specific software. The unit for sale is plenty fast for music playback up to DSD4. Original price $1444.00 + $135 for the Uptone kit. 2. HDPlex 100W fanless linear power supply (black), with 0.5M power cord, 12V XLR to 5.5/2.5mm barrel DC cable to power the Mac Mini, plus several other cables Larry included, including a couple designed to attach directly to specific sound cards. The four outputs are 9V adjustable and 5V (both using GX16/2 connectors) and (I believe) two 12V XLRs. One of the two XLR outputs is marked 19V (default for this model) but I had ordered the unit with two 12V outputs and Larry confirmed by email that my unit has them (despite the label). I include a printed copy of the email in the package. I ended up only using one 12V device so I have not confirmed the custom change. Buyer should measure the output labeled 19V before using to confirm voltage. I make no assertions about the voltage at that output. Original price $365.00 NOTE: I am willing to sell the Mac Mini alone in case the buyer already has a suitable LPS. I will not sell the HDPlex alone unless the Mac Mini is sold first. This ad is for the pair. Free shipping to the contiguous 48 U.S. States only. Buyer pays for shipment to AL and HI - cost to be determined.

View Classified Excellent 2012 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7, 16GB RAM with Uptone MMK DC + 500GB SSD Apple Mac mini "Core i7" 2.3 Quad-Core (Late 2012) w/16GB of RAM + Uptone Audio MMK DC Fan Controller (Installed by Uptone Audio) Includes Mac OS X El Capitan (Optimized) on a 32GB Toshiba SDHC Card with HQPlayer playback software installed. Mac OS X is configured with bridged networking. The internal 500 GB SSD Drive also includes Windows 10 on a partition that I ran optimized with Process Lasso and Fidelizer - also configured with bridge networking. This Mac Mini can also run Audio Linux (AL) booted to RAM. I have only booted AL to RAM once for testing, but have not listened to it. Alex Crespi of Uptone Audio ran (maybe still does) his Mac Mini using Audio Linux in this way and he has stated that he is very pleased with it. Before discovering Audio Linux, I experimented a lot with different operating systems and settled on an optimized version of OS X El Capitan booted from an SD Card, then un-mounting the internal SSD. I used this to run HQPlayer as an NAA and I ran Roon Server on my sonicTransporter. This machine is powerful enough to run Roon alone or HQPlayer in a distributed setup as I did. There are a lot of different configuration options to choose from with this Mac Mini. I bought this Mac Mini from Frys and shipped it to Uptone Audio to install their Mac Mini DC-Conversion/Linear Fan Controller Kit (MMK). Power Supply is not included. I ran mine with my Paul Hynes SR5 linear PSU. Here's what's included: Mac Mini with original box 500 GB Internal SSD 16 GB of OWC RAM Toshiba Exceria Pro 32 GB SDHC Apple Thunderbolt to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter CompuLab Display Emulator (fit-Headless) Edimax Wi-Fi USB Adapter Asking $495 or best offer. Free Shipping in the continental US and Buyer pays PayPal fee of 2.9%. Seller gsquared Date 06/21/21 Price 495.00 USD Category Music Servers / Streamers
