FS: Metrum Hex (200-240v)

I got this new-old-stock from a mate last year. Has approx 200 hours on it & includes a couple of optional extras... AES and USB (M2Tech) inputs. Spotless condition balanced non-oversampling 24-192 DAC. Cost £2600+ new.

SBAF friends price = £1000

(It'll go on sale for lots more elsewhere if it doesn't sell here)

 

Awesome deal! I used to own a Metrum Hex and this is a huge bargain. Good luck with your sale, mate.

 

Still available. Now on ebay for £1350, but still happy to sell to a Friend for £1k.

 

Sold pending payment (ebay).

 

Yay, congrats, finally. Soon you can spend too much on more transducers

 

Not necessarily the right thread to ask, but did you ever compare the Hex to something like a Bifrost Multibit?

 

Sorry missed your question the other day. Not Bifrost Multibit, but I did have an Yggdrasil alongside the Hex for a couple of weeks. Yggdrasil was preferable with speakers (via Rag), more 3D, super clean. With headphones it was closer. The Hex does have a nice, natural tone to it. I'd be happy with either in a headphone system, although tbh sometimes I do struggle to tell the difference between dacs, so YMMV!
