Offered is „dCS Rossini APEX DAC / Streamer / CD-Player“ by DCS as second-hand device from the category „CD Player“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 2842063421 ends on 07.12.2026 at 21:46 o'clock.
At €14,000, this is a strong deal: it sits below the €14,365 median and comfortably below the €10,412–€18,348 comparable range’s midpoint, landing well inside the value end of the market. For a good-condition Rossini Digital, that is attractive money rather than merely fair pricing, assuming the unit is complete and fully functional.
The Rossini remains a serious one-box digital hub, combining dCS’s proprietary Ring DAC with excellent streaming, broad digital connectivity, selectable filters, and a useful digital volume control. It can deliver exceptionally refined, spacious sound while simplifying a system by acting as DAC, streamer, and preamp. Confirm the exact variant, software support, remote/app operation, outputs, and included accessories, but there is no obvious price-related reason to hesitate: this looks like a genuine buying opportunity.
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.
