One of the 3-best DACs on the planet. Selling this for a friend who wants to upgrade to the $40k MSB DAC IV Diamond.



Asking $13.000

It is basicly in 'as new' condition, only one year old !

The DAC comes with:
- Signature Power Base
- Signature 384kHz USB input option
- Digital Filter Suite option
- Upsampling option
- PRO I2s Input option

I can also include the Femto Clock @ $4500 extra.

The unit works on any voltage (115V and 230V), thanks to auto sensing circuit.

Orginal owner. Used in dedicated smoke, animal, and kid free listening room.

Comes with the original factory boxes and packing, remote control handset, detachable IEC AC power cords and manual.

All enquires welcome and will be answered in full.

NO TRADES.

Shipping within the EU ~ 80 EUR by DHL with full insurance. US, Asia: ~$300

Ask for an exact quote - I pass through the same quoted shipping charges from my broker without adding in handling charges to keep the costs as reasonable as possible for the new owner.

Net export price ! Members from the European Union - please add VAT sales tax.

Why not upgrade it to Diamond status? If I understand MSBs policy correctly you pay for the difference in MSRP, so the value of this unit if you upgrade is higher than $13,000.

In the EU it is not as easy. Diamond DACs (modules) cost a little fortune, and what you save on upgrade you will most likely lose on resale down the road anyway.

Crazy, Upgrading from signature to diamond status should set you back $11,500. Thrown in $10K for the Galaxy clock and you're out $21,500.

Buying the new Diamond + Galaxy will set you back $43,000. If you get $13,000 for the signature you are $30,000 out of pocket. You're losing $8,500 on this transaction. Check with MSB and see if they will throw your friend a bone.

I'm pretty sure you will be able to get at least half of that back on resale. Besides, having recently thrown $150+k for a complete set of Siltech cables, I'm not really sure he cares that much ...

Just a different perspective.

Elberoth,
as he is in Europe any idea how much he is selling it in Euros?
Femto clock the 140 or Galaxy as well?
Looks like you mean Femto 140, and for the price I am assuming it is not currently installed but needs purchasing from distributor (still a bit cheaper than at what dealer sells I appreciate).
I am in the UK.
Much appreciated
