Used Deals Thread

You were right. It's a small one man shop called "ES Labs". I think AllanMarcus is mixing this up with this other company: https://esslabsusa.com/

 

@AllanMarcus was doing the unmixing.

 

Sonic Frontiers SFD-1 MKII DAC - $800

Tempting price to try out the Milo
https://www.head-fi.org/classifieds/price-drop-wells-audio-milo-w-upgrades.37393/

 

This is one of the few amps that have drawn a WTF reaction from me when I heard it, and not in a good way.

 

Schiit Aegir and Saga S for $650 and $250:

$320 CK White Andromedas: https://www.head-fi.org/classifieds/campfire-andromeda-ck-white.38820/

I'd clarify what "pretty rough" means with the seller before pulling the trigger, as e.g. any gunk in the bores or indications of excessive jostling could affect long-term performance/reliability of the set.

 

Good price for an Andro! These white one's coatings didn't last long for anyone's pair it seems. Here are the pictures:

Rough condition but rare Hifiman HE-5: https://www.head-fi.org/classifieds/one-beat-up-pair-of-the-og-hifiman-he-5.35290/
Maybe @rhythmdevils would want to mod this...

 

Used prices for Abyss 1266s have been getting better (as in less preposterous) recently; here's one for $2.5k: https://www.head-fi.org/classifieds/abyss-1266-cc.38784/

And if you missed yotacowboy's excellent price for CFA Ara, here's one for only slightly more: https://www.head-fi.org/classifieds/campfire-ara.38818/

 

Thanks for thinking of me! I'm not a huge fan of the Hifiman house sound and I'd rather concentrate my efforts on models that can be shared with others. it takes so much time to come up with a modification for an ortho, I don't want it to just be for myself.

 

Fair enough. If only LFF were still around, as this is the base for his Code-X mod.

 

$420 Campfire Ara (totally agree with the seller's sentiments though TBH): https://www.head-fi.org/classifieds/campfire-ara.38850/

 

Balanced Nelson Pass B1 buffer preamp for 80 Euros. Good fuckin deal for a balanced one of these, though I can't read the print maybe there's a reason for the low price

Surprised this $520 iFi Diablo + case + iPowerX hasn't sold yet: https://www.head-fi.org/classifieds/ifi-diablo-ipowerx-miter-case.36561/ (sure it's a little ugly but that's what the case is for)

 

Unison Gungnir Multibit auction ending in 4 days: https://www.ebay.com/itm/1343990862...rv4mRNiKzzwaQC/12LzcC/yNI=|tkp:Bk9SR7yHuuKxYQ

Cocobolo Atrium for 2,025

https://www.head-fi.org/classifieds/zmf-atrium-ltd-cocobolo.39397/

Considering selling my pair just for the cocobolo. I'm sure these will go fast.

EDIT: Seller has no feedback so proceed with caution.

 

iFi iDSD Nano Black for $75 CAD
https://www.canuckaudiomart.com/details/649936800-ifi-idsd-nano-black-label/
This is local to me so I could potentially pick up if someone really wanted.

 

Still available, surprisingly at this price. These things are great - this makes a great little desktop DAC (has a fixed line-out), battery powered or battery bypassed with an easy hack, as well as a desktop/portable AIO.

Here's another good deal in Canada: Asgard 3 $CAD 175 (~$USD 130).
