Piece #2 of my Four(4) piece Musical Fidelity Audio Stack(Amp/DAC/Phono Stage/Bluetooth Music Streamer).  Prefer to sell as a complete grouping($600), but willing to sell separately($175ea).  Compact and versatile, I have used them as a complete system, as well as rotated individual pieces through my reference system when certain components were out for repair.  Versatile connectability with very capable audiophile grade sound.  Performs well beyond its price point. I have the original box, packaging, accessories, and owner's manual.  Discontinued but still supported.
From their website:

Our aim with the V90-DAC was, on balance, to make the best DAC in the world without breaking the bank. 

Examine any high-end DAC, and the first thing you see is massive casework. As far as we are aware, this contributes nothing to its technical or sonic performance. Take the top off, and in most cases you will find a complex layout that suggests performance. However, further analysis will show that the real work of signal handling and data conversion is done by a dozen or so components. The rest is decoration, designed to suggest competence. These observations formed the basis for the V90-DAC concept. 

We wanted to build the best DAC in the world, but to sell it at a fair price. Using state-of-the-art design techniques and components, we set out to design a DAC to produce top-notch technical performance – housed in a modest, reasonably priced package. 

The V90-DAC has a balance of measurements: distortion, noise, linearity, bandwidth, and phase, which in their totality are not significantly bettered by any product at any price. 

If you hunt around, you may find the occasional DAC that claims to have slightly better performance than the V90-DAC in one area or another, but in totality will not exceed it. There are plenty of competitors shouting about their new, wonderful version of the emperor’s new clothes, but they offer little or nothing in real performance to back up their claims. Just lots of talk about subjective this or that, but all of it is just a matter of opinion. 

The V90-DAC is a matter of fact. Its technical and sonic performance is superlative. There are better DACs but they may cost twenty or thirty times more. 

Buying the V90-DAC is your personal statement of independence from overhyped claims.

Questions for the seller
Hello, what are the other pieces in your stack? Is there a separate listing for them? Thanks.
Yes... If you scroll down to the bottom you can hit the tab that says "sellers other items" or you should be able to hit my screen name and get to it that way. The other pieces are a Phono Stage, a blue tooth streamer, and 20 watt per channel amplifier. Jeff
