I got this DAC from a head-fier last week and played with it but I feel it sounds too laid back in my system (HD580), so I've decided to sell it. I think it would match well with grado headphones. It has a smooth, warm, rolled off sound that is very listenable with no trace of brightness or fatigue. A great value imo. It has a coaxial digital input and a pair of RCA outputs. Power supply included. Asking $50 shipped OBO. Check my feedback in the buyer/seller forum. Email for pics. Thanks for looking.

It uses the CS8412 and TDA1543 chips like the Scott Nixon DAC. It uses the Nonoz III Dac design and info can be found here . Pics can be seen here
. This is a nice sounding DAC and it does some things better than the MSB Link I that I owned.

Just to clarify, this is not built from the Nanoz DAC schematic. It was built from this schematic I built it. It runs off of a 12 volt adaptor and it has a coaxial connector. It may not look that great inside, but it sounds great and the price is a good deal!
