Superb one-owner PS Audio DirectStream DAC with Bridge II Network Card and latest SUNLIGHT operating system upgrade.  Purchased new directly from PS Audio.  This award-winning DAC includes PS Audio's $899 network card with full MQA, Tidal (including Masters), Spotify, Qobuz, VTuner, and Roon ready.    
From PS Audio:
The DirectStream DAC is our reference standard D to A converter. It is unlike any standard chip-based DAC, and has received countless awards, worldwide.
DirectStream is one of the most remarkable DACS ever built as all the major reviewers agree. Hand written, discrete, perfection based conversion that uncovers all the missing information hiding in your digital audio media. CD’s, streaming audio, high-resolution PCM or DSD based media are expertly upsampled in the DirectStream to twenty times DSD rate and output as pure analog directly into your amplifier or preamplifier. There has never been a better sounding DAC at anywhere close to the price of DirectStream. It is the first choice of thousands of critical listeners worldwide, and with its ability to accept our free Operating System upgrades, will never become obsolete.  
DirectStream converts every input signal, both PCM and DSD, to single-bit, high sample rate 20X DSD signal. Use of a FPGA rather than an off the shelf DAC chip provides immense processing power, resulting in complete lack of digital glare, and allows the owner to download OS updates as they are released.

DirectStream is the heart of a reference quality digital audio based system. It handles all PCM sources up to 352.8 kHz, and DSD 64 and 128 (USB and I2S) and DSD256 (I2S only, with the Sunlight OS). Its zero-loss digital volume control allows it to be used as a preamplifier, directly feeding a power amp. Include the Network Bridge to stream Qobuz, Tidal, and Spotify. Roon ready.

About SUNLIGHT Operating System:
Sunlight is our highest mountaintop software upgrade yet. The ultimate expression of sonic performance in the DirectStream DAC. With Sunlight loaded into your DirectStream, owners get to experience a whole new DAC. We cannot wait until you experience what this, the final upgrade for DirectStream, will bring to your stereo system.
PS Audio’s DirectStream DAC is one of a rare handful of fully programmable high-end DACs. Every parameter controlling the DAC’s performance is managed through software that runs the unit’s core processing engine, an FPGA.
With Sunlight installed, DirectStream becomes fully capable, through its I2S inputs, of quad rate DSD. What this means for DirectStream owners is more than just enhanced DSD performance.  In fact, it means DirectStream has been elevated to unheard-of performance levels on all inputs and for any sample rate or format.  
About Bridge II Network Card:
The PerfectWave Network Bridge II brings network connectivity to your DirectStream or PerfectWave DAC. Based on UPnP formats, Bridge II can be controlled with any UPnP controller and is able to connect over your home's Local Area Network via Ethernet (Cat 5). Connect a NAS, computer, JRiver, whatever you have to your PWD or DirectStream. And Now, full MQA, Tidal (including Masters), Spotify, Qobuz, VTuner, and Roon ready.
