FS: Singxer SDA-6 PRO DAC (230V)

I’m selling my Singxer SDA-6 PRO (230V) in absolutely great condition.

It has got the AK4499EQ chip inside and accepts up to 384 kHz PCM and DSD512 with DSD256 being the sweet spot. This chip has become unobtanium since the AKM factory fire and, unlike its newer AK4499EX + AK4191EQ brother and sister, certifiably does “DSD Direct”. It’s arguably one of the best DACs for HQPlayer or native DSD playback, and of course sounds amazing with PCM as well.

This is the “PRO” or “Advanced” version with Mundorf MCap EVO capacitors and no negative feedback in the output stage. Besides that it’s got everything you normally expect to find in kilobuck DACs: OCXO with Crysteks, isolated XMOS USB, 10 MHz clock input, I2S and AES inputs, balanced and unbalanced outputs.

The DAC comes in the original packaging and with manual, remote control, and Europlug power cord.

Call me crazy for selling this. After long tinkering with HQPlayer I’ve decided to stay with PCM after all and went for a multibit DAC. I bought this fall 2022 from Audiophonics and always took great care of it.

Price is €799 (firm) and excludes shipping from the EU to anywhere. PayPal G&S costs are on me.
