I have a 3 week old Auralic Vega balanced DAC trade-in for sale. We sold it new and it will be sold as a demo with warranty. It includes the original box, packaging, remote control, and power cord. The manual is available on line.

Rated 8/10 for some minor discoloration on top that came from the factory this way. See the photos as it is slight. Reviews were all exceptional on this DAC.

VEGA,
the next generation digital audio processor, is developed with the goal
of 'seeking for non-compromised sound'.  With plenty of I/O ports and
powerful function, it will become the kernel component of your high-end
stereo system.

With Sanctuary Audio Processor as heart, AURALiC introduces several cutting-edge technology for VEGA: Megahertz upsampling algorithm up-samples all PCM music to 1.5MHz in 32bit; Femto Master Clock provides
an ultimate clock precision with jitter only 82 femtoseconds(0.082
picosecond). Binding with other AURALiC's patented technologies such as
'ORFEO Class-A module' and discrete 'Purer-Power™ solution', VEGA will
bring high resolution music playback experience to climax.

VEGA
supports all high resolution music formats including DXD(352.8KS/s,
384KS/s in 32bit) as well as DSD stream at 2.8224MHz and 5.6448MHz.
Five
digital inputs include AES/EBU, coaxial(set of two), toslink and USB.
The balanced and single-ended analog outputs can connect to power
amplifier directly, adjusting volume in digital precision without
dynamic loss.

The Flexible Filter Mode embedded
inside VEGA has six modes, each contains several digital filters
optimized for corresponding sampling rate. These filters are solely
developed by AURALiC to optimize the listening experience for different
music and format. VEGA allows its user to customize according to
different music formats, tuning sound best to personal preference.

Features

AURALiC Sanctuary Audio Processor

Sanctuary
audio processor, the heart of VEGA, is based on multi-core ARM9
architecture with calculating capability at 1000MIPS which is ideal for
handling multi-channel high resolution music. AURALiC also introduces
the second generation ActiveUSB ™ to VEGA that separates the USB PHY
into a discrete chip to future reduce EMI  from computer. Resorting to
these technologies, VEGA not only support DXD format(352.8KS/s and
384KS/s PCM signal in 32bit) but also able to decode DSD stream at
2.8224MHz and 5.6448MHz in native though 'DoP V1.1' transmission
standard.

Flexible Filter Mode

The
Flexible Filter Mode technology inside VEGA has six built-in modes each
contains several digital filters optimized for corresponding sampling
rate. These filters are developed under AURALiC's subjective auditory
sense and objective testing data relationship models which is to
optimize the listening experience for different music and format. The
linear phase filter exhibits perfect in-band ripple and out-band
attenuation performance while the minimum phase filter is better for
enjoyment as it has no 'pre-ringing' effect. There are also slow
roll-off filter and several noise filters for native DSD conversion. To
maximum usage of these filters, VEGA allows its user to customize
according to different formats, tuning sound best to personal
preference. Please download the technical white paper of Flexible Filter Mode for detailed information.

Femto Master Clock

The
objective of Femto Master Clock  technology is to
give DAC and upsampling circuit an ultimate clock with extremely low
jitter and low phase noise. It utilizes aerospace grade crystal
oscillator, ultra low noise linear power supply and temperature
compensation technology to generate master clock with extremely low
jitter at 82 femtoseconds. What's more important, the phase noise which
affect sound quality a lot has been dramatically reduced to -168dBc/Hz.
VEGA has three level of clock precision for customer to choose, with the
highest grade 'EXACT'
mode, it will give the purest reference clock. Driving by such amazing
clock, VEGA can easily reproduce the music details in the 'last bit',
represent a rock solid stereo image you may never experience before.

Megahertz Upsampling

Using
latest ground breaking algorithm, Megahertz Upsampling technology
process and up-sampling all incoming PCM signal to
about 1.5MHz in 32bit depth. These not only improve the precision
of DAC, but also create a new Nyquist frequency for all PCM signal which
farther away from the top end of audio frequency. As a result, our
engineers are able to design a brand new analog circuit structure with
more bandwidth and faster slew rate. Comparing to previous design, the
new structure is more transparent to audio signal with lower distortion
and less noise, it also lets red book CDs sound more rich and smooth.

AURALiC ORFEO Class-A Output Module

In
order to drive various loads, matching different power amplifiers, VEGA
is powered with AURALiC's patented ORFEO Class-A module which is
inspired by Neve 8078 analog console’s circuit design as the output
stage. The principle of this module is to use a mass of small signal
components with best linear characteristic. By packing them though a
thermal balance procedure and bias the transistors into Class-A, ORFEO
achieves impressive performance with open loop distortion less than
0.001%. The ORFEO module used in VEGA has been selected and tweaked for
lower noise while maintains its driving capability for 600ohm load
without any distortion raise.
