Angeboten wird „Rossini Master Clock“ von DCS als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Wordclock Generatoren“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 3154248898 endet am 13.09.2026 um 10:48 Uhr.
At €4,750, this dCS ROSSINI Digital is a stunning bargain compared to the obvious alternative: a mid-tier DAC like the Chord DAVE or even a used Bartok, which typically start well above €10k. The listing price sits far below the 25th percentile (€9,078) of recent comparable EUR asking prices, making it a clear bargain against the median of €15,984.
The ROSSINI remains a top-tier used DAC for its exceptional timing, rich harmonic detail, and seamless integration with dCS’s own clocks. Its streaming stack, DAC architecture, and master-clock compatibility give it longevity and upgrade path that many rivals lack. In good EUR condition, this is a high-value entry into elite hi-fi, especially if it includes original accessories or is from a known original owner. No caveats apply at this price.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
dCS: British Digital Audio Pioneer
dCS (Data Conversion Systems) was established in Cambridge, England in 1987, emerging from a background in advanced signal processing and radar systems for aerospace applications including RAF Harrier and Typhoon aircraft. This foundation in hard science and digital engineering has defined the company's trajectory from electronics consultancy to specialist audio manufacturer. The company transitioned to consumer audio in 1989 with the 900 ADC, an analogue-to-digital converter for professional studios, and by 1996 launched the Elgar, claimed to be the first 24-bit high-resolution DAC for the domestic hi-fi market.
dCS specializes exclusively in digital audio conversion technology, with their product range centered on DACs (digital-to-analogue converters) and associated digital processing components. Every product incorporates the company's proprietary Ring DAC technology, a hallmark of their engineering approach. Rather than diversifying into amplifiers, speakers, or other categories, dCS has maintained singular focus on mastering the conversion and playback of digital audio signals with maximum fidelity.
The brand occupies the ultra-premium, high-end segment of the audio market, positioning itself among the world's most respected specialist manufacturers. All products are hand-assembled in-house at their Cambridge facility by a dedicated team of designers and technicians. dCS commands significant respect among professional recording engineers and discerning audiophiles seeking uncompromising digital audio performance, representing a rare example of a British hi-fi company that has sustained innovation and manufacturing excellence over nearly four decades.
