Suburb or Town: Adelaide Hills State: South Australia Payment Method: PayPal, EFT, Cash Reason for selling: NLR Further information: Bought off another member a few weeks ago to compare to my old Usb Dac. I can tell it's superior to my old dac in every way despite my equipment not being good enough to fully take advantage of it. I just prefer my old DACs sound that makes all music have a similar flavour and makes my bad quality songs sound better. I also don't have enough high quality digital source files to take advantage of the da004 Will throw in a pair of 80cm Swamp balanced XLR cables. Below is copy and paste from the original post.

I have TWO of them in two systems and could not be happier. I had foolishly jumped in and paid even more for a Schiit YGGDRASIL until I received an LKS MH-DA004 and the difference in audio quality was obvious. So I sold the YGGDRASIL and purchased a second LKS. Note, the YGGDRASIL DAC is a fine unit, but the LKS is better. Cleaner reproduction generally on classical music, particularly with larger ensembles where the LKS reveals more detail of the individual instruments playing, has more air and delicacy and eliminates traces of digital harshness" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
