Reason for sale: Already have the Audio-gd DAC19DSP and C2.2 so under-utilised. didn't need too many DAC and head-amp.

This is the well-regarded DAC/Head-amp/Pre-Amp combo from Audio-gd with user-configurable options and different modules to play with according to your taste. It uses Audio-Gd proprietary ACSS (same as CAST in Krell's system) and a diamond output buffer. A great sounding unit and headamp with natural and neutral sound.

Default configuration is DAC section=WM8741. Digital Reciever= WM8805 module. It gives a detailed, dynamic and slightly smoother sonics. It matches superbly with my HD800, HD650, HD600 and HD25-13 headphones.

This is what it can do:

The FUN function buttons:
Front plate:
Gain button: Push in for low gain (+2DB), out is high gain ( +13DB).
Volume knob: Control the volume level of the headphone/pre amp.
Line Out: Push in for headphone output, out for preamp output.
Line In: Push in for analogue input, to use it as just a headphone amp or preamp, leave out to use with the in-built DAC.
Selector knob: Select built in DAC source between USB , coaxial and optical.

Rear:
Power socket: For power input.
USB socket: For USB input.
Opt socket: For optical input.
Coa socket: For coaxial input.
DAC out sockets: For in-built DAC analogue output.
Line In sockets: For extra analogue input, to use FUN as just a headphone amp or preamp, leave out to use with the in-built DAC.
Line out sockets: Out for preamp output.

Advice for using FUN as a dedicated DAC:

The FUN has special DAC output sockets, so owners can connect to the DAC output sockets, but I advise owners to try to connect to the Preamp output sockets, setting the volume to proper position (at high gain, volume placed around 10:00 to 14:00) which is the proper output level. Doing this benefits from the ACSS gain circuits , and definitely improves the sound quality.

The modules are for DAC modules WM8741 (neutral, highly detailed, organic), DA1852 (dynamic, extended highs, very 3D-like soundstage), Digital receiver WM8805 and DIR9001.
