Offered is „D100 DAC - Preamp“ by McIntosh as second-hand device from the category „Pre-Amplifier / Processor“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 8323506655 ends on 28.12.2026 at 11:37 o'clock.
New, the McIntosh D100 sold around €3,350, so €800 is exceptionally low for a clean example. Against the two recent comparable asking prices—median €1,269, with the lower quartile at €1,034—this sits well below the 25th percentile: a genuine bargain rather than merely a fair deal.
It remains a compelling digital front end if your system has no analogue sources. The D100 combines a capable 32-bit/192kHz USB DAC with two coaxial and two optical inputs, balanced and unbalanced fixed or variable outputs, and a useful headphone amplifier. Its variable XLR output also makes it a neat direct-control preamp for a power amp or active speakers. At this money, verify the display, remote, USB operation, and ideally the original power supply, but a properly working unit is a strong buy.
