Hi all, As a result of some new arrivals I'm about to stick a few things up for sale on head-fi shortly (my small computer desk is becoming stupidly cramped with amps / dacs). Not planning on listing them all individually here due to low footfall but if anyone is interested in anything in particular I can post more details, price, pics etc. - Schiit Vali 2 (NB. UK 3 pin psu) *now listed on HF* - Head 'n' hifi O2 desktop amp (NB. UK 3 pin psu) *now listed on HF* - Fiio E18 Kunlun portable dac/amp *now listed on HF* - Musical Fidelity V90-DAC (NB. UK 3 pin wall-wart) *now listed on HF* - Denon MM400 portable headphones *keeping for now* and possibly a Garage 1217 Project Polaris I received last week following a trade with a US head-fi'er (universal power supply - just add the appropriate PC type power cord for your region). *keeping for now*

Edit: now listed on HF at a price closer to 'market value' (i.e. not at mate's rates).

It's the lack of 24/192 via USB that's made me decide to sell. My old motherboard had co-ax but the new one only supports USB and optical. The Mojo is great. If it's something with a small form factor you're after but don't need the portability then the Grace Design M9xx on Massdrop might be worth considering too. They just released another batch ($499 + $30ish shipping iirc)and after VAT / duty etc. probably clocks in around the same price as the Mojo....has RCA outs, a few filters, some basic crossfeed functionality (I think) and a more logical volume display. Uses the same DAC chip as the Schiit Bifrost (AK4490)although of course implementation plays a big part too. btw for anything 24/96 or below I prefer to use optical with the Mojo. Just seems a bit more musical and a touch less sharp in comparison to USB. Not that USB sounds bad, particularly when you feed it some hi-res material. Edit: with the poor £ to $ exchange rate the M9XX now works out rather expensive. Approx. £480 all in (with Massdrop you'll definitely be taxed as they declare full value). Good site for working out rough costs when importing is www.dutycalculator.com (you get 3 free calculations per month). Although currency conversion fees may bump things up a bit as will the courier's customs clearance charges (£10-20 perhaps). Mark, want your Lyr back to swap for the vali? The last thing I need is another amp! ...ask me again in the winter when I'm looking to reduce the heating bills
