I'm selling a fully loaded, immaculate, barely broken-in Antipodes DX2 (Gen 2 as John Darko describes it) for cash-flow reasons. This is the real 2nd generation DX with: thick alloy plate, 5 outputs (2 USB, w/ and w/out V5, AES/EBU, coaxial and Toslink), and two 2TB SSD (4TB total).
Mark Jenkins, the developer/owner of Antipodes, described the changes to Gen 2 as follows: "[with] a new generation of Intel chips ... we could improve a number of aspects of performance by changing the server core – mainboard, CPU, RAM. We have changed the [USB] output card and made some minor but telling changes to the power supply.” Also, RoonReady and Roon Core are pre-installed, with several Roon configuration options available, plus "new Linux-based server software that's faster and more intuitive than the old VortexBox shell."
As Darko points out in his review, "Via myantipodes.com, one can install/activate various alternative options for media handling – Squeezelite, Squeezebox server, MPD, HQPlayer NAA, Bubble UPnP, SONOS ‘Auto configure’, Plex Media Server – as well as configure playback from externally attached USB drives and network shares, automated CD ripping (whose software side has been improved in v2) and back-ups."
I purchased this in Aug. 2016 from an authorized U.S. distributor--WellPleasedAV in Arlington, VA--who assures me that the original 5-year warranty would transfer.
This is a state-of-the-art music server optimized for Roon playback in a unique configuration.
Thanks for looking.
