I have owned the NATIV VITA music player and the NATIV DISC for over a year now (I am also a beta tester for all the new firmware and app releases). I liked it so much that I also ordered NATIV's matching DAC / Headphone Amp / Preamp (the 'WAVE') at the same time, but didn't realize that it would take more than a year for the company to have the DAC / Preamp market-ready. 

At some point I couldn't wait any longer and eventually filled my DAC 'gap' with a PS Audio Directstream Junior (my other listing). I really like both DACs and will be happy with the one that doesn't sell first, I just don't need two.     
This is a brand new unit shipped directly from the manufacturer. It is already here in the U.S., no need to deal with customs (I did that...). I am offering it for sale at a nice $350 (20%) discount.          
 As I don't want to sell something that's incomplete or doesn't work as intended I did open the box to inspect the content (everything is there, including a very nice metal remote control) and I carefully hooked it up to my rig to ensure it works as intended (it does). I then packed it all back up.  

This set includes the nicer Walnut wood desk stand ($100 option). Including shipping, this unit retails for $1,650 when ordered from NATIV. The box includes the Wave, Walnut stand, remote control, switching power supply, a quick start user manual (another manual available online), and some USB cables intended for connections to the optional upgraded Nativ PULSE power supply (I own that as well......). You can use the NATIV app for input and volume control if you also own the VITA. Otherwise, the remote control will have to do.
 
Check the Nativsound website for more information - I included some info below. I included a picture of my complete rig so you can see the other 'upright' Nativ components. It is a  unique concept.  
My price includes paypal fees, but buyer is responsible for a flat shipping charge of $40 (insured) in CONUS. No trades and no low balling please. This price is extremely fair for a brand new DAC and hence firm. Check my feedback and buy with confidence. Thank you for looking.
