MHDT Laboratory Stockholm V2 $ DROP! R2R Nos Dac w/ Singxer F1-U + $200 Tubes

Price changed for quick sale, $200 price reduction! Also added 3 additional buffer stage tubes for more sound tuning. This includes Bendix 2c51 (best), WE 2c51 (warmest), Tesla pinched waist (2nd best - slight V), and Russian OTK (balanced with visceral bass).

Up for sale is my MHDT Labs Stockholm V2 non-oversampling R2R dac. Upgrade parts to the DAC are superior (and authentic!) "K" DAC chips and imo, the cleanest sounding - Bendix 2C51 vacuum buffer stage.

This non-oversampling DAC is a favorite among speaker users, it provides a clean sounding output to your preamp/integrated amp. Compared to units like Holo, Schiit, and Audio-GD - a few top of the line units I've tried - it sure holds its own! The secret is non-oversampling and there are many explanations of this floating around.

The unit does have an issue with the USB input, which is having intermittent cut-outs with Windows 10 machines. This is strictly on the USB input side of the DAC and does not affect performance of the Coaxial inputs as well as optical. To remedy this issue, and improve sonics in the process by a few grades, I'm including in the sale a Singxer F1-U ($189) -- quick specs, XMOS XU208 USB receiver, FEMTO clocks, 75ohm RCA output. This is far superior to the onboard USB  and clocks!

Condition can pass for Excellent 9/10 however due to the USB input, I've lowered it to "Very Good". Shipping will be $30 to CONUS. Insurance and tracking included. If you have any questions please feel free to ask! Original box is not included but the DAC and DDC/USB conditioner will be well packaged for shipping!
