Maybe I'm a dinosaur, but I listen to CDs. I want to buy a HeadRoom amp, but they don't seem to make a non-portable headphone amp with RCA inputs that doesn't have a DAC. The CD player I am using reportedly has a fairly high-quality Wolfson DAC, and so I'm not sure I need to pay for digital processing. I understand that the Desktop is no longer made without the DAC, so does that leave me having to buy an RCA to mini connector to use a non-portable HeadRoom amp (or buy used)? For some reason, the RCA to mini option seems less than ideal to me, but maybe that's where I'm wrong? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

It's discontinued; see the bottom of the page.

Oops! sorry.

Thanks guys, I saw the discontinued, which is why I assumed they were unavailable. But I note that you can still select the DAC-less version, so maybe they have some hanging around? Of course now that I think it's unavailable, I want it even more. Thanks.
