"Reduced" Pure Audio Lotus DAC 5 with Sparkos Labs Op Amps

Little use due to a change of circumstances and in excellent condition.

Musical and detailed DAC that punches above its weight.

Very versatile with a multitude of settings as listed below.

I upgraded to a Lumin P1 after downsizing my system due to a change in living conditions.
