Wanted: USB Dac

For Sale/Wanted
Forum rules
Note that Tir Na HiFi does not take any responsibility for transactions arranged or carried out here. It is up to the seller and buyer to check each other out! Please be sensible folks, and if there is something you think is wrong, let a mod know, OK?

To make it as clear as we can, here are some simple guidelines:

a) like any forum, the success of tirnahifi is entirely dependent on discussion. All members are encouraged to participate in discussion of music, hifi, etc.
b) tirnahifi is not designed to be, nor intended to be, a marketplace. Any member who uses the site merely for selling will be looked on suspiciously.
c) those members who choose to sell on the site should be aware that the mods do keep an eye on the stuff for sale, plus the demeanour of the seller. Sometimes we may lock/delete/ban a sales thread on this basis.
d) honesty is paramount in all selling transactions. Commercial sellers who label themselves as such are accepted at the discretion of the moderating team.
e) All ads have to include information about age, price, provenance, etc.
f) THE MODERATING TEAM RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REMOVE ANY ADS AT THEIR DISCRETION.
g) Commercial sellers should approach any of the moderation team in advance of posting. First time commercial posts without moderator contact will be removed.

Wanted: USB Dac

Not very high quality as it will only be used to link my computer to an old hi-fi amp that I use for computer sounds and YouTube videos. Anything considered, thanks.

I read your advert Ivor but your for sale DAC is a bit overkill for what I need it for. Mainly to get 'sounds' from my computer to an old hi-fi amp, to play YouTube videos etc. Normally I use the headphone output from the PC but one application, Audicity, refuses to use that output. Hence my need for something USB.

Ken Moreland has come to my rescue on this.

Thanks ho66es, thank you for your offer but another forum member, Ken Moreland, has come to my rescue.

It is indeed but would be "future proofed" if you ever went down that route. Good ol' Ken!
