How old is the actual unit? I there any warranty left?

But you are also correct, what else is out there for the same money? I’m guessing if it’s a good deal it should be slightly south of £6k?

Yes, around 5.5k, mint condition, around 4 years old, no warranty.

I think that’s a good price for what is still a class leading device and will be a very long time. If you do pass up on (assuming it’s UK based) I’d be very interested

In my book there isn’t anything else I would want to replace it with……and its the oldest piece of Hifi gear I own.
I have been on the Dac merry go round before…….

my dave is also the oldest component i own and it's going nowhere any time soon. rob watts said he has not done any work on a dave replacement/upgrade.

What's a possible DAC/Amp upgrade coming from DAVE? Any recommendations? Thanks

Any of the similarly priced gear from Weiss, Linn, PBD, Emm Labs, Grimm, APL will sound better IMO.

Dave + M Scaler
I already have both DAVE and M Scaler. I'm interested in the Quartet but still not available

Unfortunately, these brands are not available here in my country

Don't worry, you're not missing much with those brands, I've listened to most of them and wasn't impressed at all. Stick to what you like and don't listen to trolls. 😂 😂 😂
