dCS Paganini DAC


Up for sale is dCS Paganini DAC recently taken in on trade. This item is being offered for sale with a 3 year warranty backed by dCS Americas under their Certified Pre-Owned program.

*Please note that the Paganini Clock shown in the photos has been sold*

The Paganini DAC can decode any PCM resolution up to 24/192 as well as DSD64 via any input and includes a range of user-selectable digital filters to fine-tune the sound to the listener's taste. The combination of a high-resolution volume control and world-class analog output stage allow the Paganini DAC to drive a power amplifier directly for the ultimate in transparency.

Original retail on the Paganini DAC was $18,999

The dCS Paganini is one of the finest digital playback systems ever created. While the Paganini has been discontinued it still possesses the sonic qualities that made it a reference for many manufacturers and reviewers alike. dCS may have newer products on the market and they are better, but the Paganini gets you most of the way there at a fraction of the cost.

If you're interested in building a killer streaming / computer setup with this Paganini please contact us about the new dCS Network Bridge. Combining the Bridge with the Paganini DAC will create a playback system that can decode just about anything from any source. We have the Network Bridge in-house and when paired with the Paganini we couldn't beat it with anything short of the new Rossini of the world-beating Vivaldi!

Please note that we are an authorized dCS dealer and this system was taken in on trade. As such we can offer it with a 3 year warranty provided by dCS Americas under their Certified Pre-Owned program. Unlike other dCS components on Audiogon with this one you can trust that you'll receive support and any future software updates without any hassle.

Condition


This unit is in excellent condition, but it is not flawless. There are NO marks that can be seen at a distance and it's incredibly difficult to get any of them to show in photos. The DAC has a few pencil-tip sized marks on the faceplace (both the sloped surface and the face). Given the polished surface and clearcoat applied these types of marks are unavoidable. In reality these are not visible unless you are right on top of the pieces and looking very intently. The other chassis parts are in excellent condition with no visible marks.

This unit has been tested and is in perfect operational and sonic condition. The DAC is running the most recent software version.

This unit will ship in its original box with its original manuals and accessories.

If you are interested in a dCS Master Clock to go with this DAC please contact us for options.

TERMS


Our price is fair considering performance level, condition and warranty status. You are, however, welcome to make offers. Please remember that with the included warranty and peace of mind associated with a purchase backed by dCS these are considerably more valuable than other pre-owned dCS items which have no support or warranty.

Please see our shipping and payment terms below. Due to the cost of this item we require payment via bank wire unless other arrangements have been made.
