Angeboten wird „Vivaldi Upsampler Plus“ von DCS als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Digital Streamer“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 116378545 endet am 26.09.2026 um 11:56 Uhr.
At €13,900, this sits just above the €13,740 median and well inside the normal band for recent EUR comps, so it reads as a fair, buyable price rather than a bargain or an ask to haggle hard over. It’s also only a touch above the €13,346 25th percentile, so the seller is not stretching much relative to the market.
The Vivaldi upsampler is still a reference-grade digital front end: its job is to clean up incoming digital, improve timing, and let a serious DAC show more of what’s on the disc or stream. If the unit is truly good, with original packaging, remote, and no service history gaps, that makes it a solid enthusiast buy; just verify firmware status, input/output functionality, and that all digital locks are stable, since those matter more than cosmetics here.
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.
