Nuprime DAC-9 DAC/Preamp

Original owner . Unit is in excellent condition. Used as Bluetooth player in an extra system which is being eliminated.  All functions work smoothly as advertised. Very low noise unit with great volume selectiveness. This was never used to it's full capability ( DSD and other digital abilities).  This unit has less than 150 hours on it. So it is not really even broken-in. Very clean sounding. All original packaging, manual and accessories are included.
I will triple box.  Check out my references. I prefer PayPal.
NuPrime DAC-9 

• Advanced, FPGA implemented switched-resistor ladder network for controlling volume, i.e., a single resistor in the signal path at any volume setting.


• Individually adjustable volume on each input for precise source level matching.


• Volume adjustment in 99 precise, 0.5dB increments.

Several notable features:

• NuPrime SRC IC chip provides FPGA processing where Input signals are up-sampled to mega hertz before down converted to the targeted sampling rate with ultra-low jitter and distortion.


• AKM Newest Generation: High Sound Quality Premium 32-bit Stereo DAC (AK4490 EQ). State-of-the-art DAC with warmer sonic characteristics, supporting USB PCM 384 and DSD256.


• A proprietary NuPrime implementation that is also capable of decoding DoP formats via coaxial and optical inputs (to support NuPrime Omnia portable device that are able to output DoP stream in addition to S/PDIF).


• NuPrime vibration-free isolation feet (patent pending*)


• Extension port for Bluetooth dongle and WiFi audio streaming (optional)


• Full microprocessor control with memory retention


• Five digital inputs and one stereo input for complete system flexibility


• Supports DSD native playback by ASIO2.1 and DoP method. DSD is decoded natively with the same sample rate as the input source.


• Ultra-low-noise JFETs in the input stage for the lowest possible noise floor


• Volume adjustment in 99 precise 0.5dB increments


• Advanced, FPGA implemented thin-film switched-resistor ladder network for controlling volume, with a single resistor in the signal path at any volume setting


• Individually adjustable volume on each input for precise level matching of sources. If DAC-9 is connected to another preamp or home theater AVP, set the volume @ 94, which is 0dB.


• Exclusive driver software for Windows


• Standard driver software for Mac


• Asynchronous transfer mode


• Very low power consumption on Standby Mode 


• Available in black or silver anodized aluminum finish
