This is a very nice Audio by Van Alstine FET Valve DAC, from 2008-2009. The FET Valve DAC series are amazingly musical. The AVA FET Valve Hybrid DAC in its current iteration runs $1699.00 with the black faceplate. There are 2 - 12AX7 tubes in this DAC. The unit has a basic digital SPDIF (RCA) input and a set of RCA outputs. It’s built in a traditional 14 inch AVA chassis.

The description on the label reads: FET VALVE DAC with upgraded Ultra Logic Board, Parallel Processing Hybrid Tube D to A Converter. Uses two 12AX7 / ECC83 tubes, Serial Number 021408.

I am the second owner of this DAC. I purchased it in February 2014 and have enjoyed it for the past year. I would rate it about 7/10 since it’s actually very clean, but has a few very minor scratches or marks, and I’m not the first owner.

This unit will allow you to hear CD's in a whole new light.

I used this DAC effectively with the SPDIF out from a CD player. Since having this, I have built a DDDac kit which has both SPDIF and USB inputs, so I don't have a need for this device now.
