The Ayon Skylla ll is one of the finest and most musical DAC’s you can buy at any price according to several audio reviews. It has SPDIF, COAX, and USB, and TOSLINK inputs plus RCA and balanced outputs. It also has a fabulous analogue tube pre-amp built in so you can hook it up directly to your amplifier and use the digital remote control to attenuate volume. You can even use it as a stand-alone preamp as well. This is the Same DAC and preamp that is in the famous award winning Ayon CD-5s, although Ayon does claim the DAC’s performance is slightly superior to the CD5s due to a few tweaks which could not be performed in the CD-5s itself. I use the USB Asynchronous input direct from my Mac Mini. It is “FABULOUS”. This DAC offers low, medium, and high voltage outputs, and has the option to upsample to 24/192 or to listen to music in it’s native recording. The Ayon Skylla ll DAC retails for $8,500. I changed all eleven of the standard fuses inside the DAC for “Hi-Fi Tuning Supreme” fuses. That cost me close to $600. In addition, I bought an extra set of tubes, - eight in total which were all matched and selected by Ayon and purchased direct from them. This extra set of tubes cost me $550. The fuses and the extra set of tubes are included in the package as they will have much value to the buyer and offer me very little in terms of resale value. I am selling this entire package for $4,200 including Pay Pal fees, and Audiogon fees to anywhere in the world by EMS express shipping- insured. Original box, packing, remote, instructions all included. Unit is 220-240 volt, 50 Hertz version and can be easily changed to 110v, i can take care of it if you like or you can use a proper transformer which would not harm the sonic presentation at all. Thanks for looking.
