Description
This is a used item. See the pics for condition. Its not in mint condition but as the pics show its in nice shape for its age. Its a working unit I took it out of my main system. It comes with an original box and no cables. I ran the xlr to a CAL Delta cd transport, the toslink to a Rpi player, and the coax to a Sonos connect. The input select can switch between all 3. All 4 actually but Ive never owned anything with the AT&T input. Im not sure which tubes are in there now. Probably the stock Chinese tubes. I dont know much about the Gold Edition. Ive owned several CAL dacs and Ive never seen the gold version before. Of course it sounds much better because...gold! These are fun to play with as power cords, cables, and tubes can all be swapped. My take on the sound is its probably not as accurate (or dry and sterile) as newer dacs with higher tech electronics. That said it has a bit of character that can be massaged and shaped by rolling those tubes. And of course, Gold. I added pics of the owners manual.
