It is a very good price for a very good DAC technology, but a word of caution applies. I've once heard a dCS combo with a non-dCS transport. It sounded very good (comparable to the dCS transport) but also had audible skips every few seconds. This may have been an artifact of the upsampler in that system, but I would not take this lightly based on a mere assumption. Ask (or try) before you buy.

There was one just sold on Audiogon for $2900.
Also remember there are a few incarnations of the elgar. So be sure you know which one you are buying.

Oh gosh that is a pretty good find. Thanks. How many different incarnations of the Elgar are there? I know there's the Elgar Plus. What else?
