Are you specifically after this model, rather than a newer DX3 Pro+? At £175, it is clearly ambitious: recent comparable listings put the median at £104, with the 75th percentile at £125 and the 25th at £86. Unless this is an unusually complete, mint example with meaningful warranty or provenance, the price needs to come down substantially to look attractive.
The original DX3 Pro remains a capable all-in-one: a clean, neutral DAC, Bluetooth receiver, preamp and headphone amplifier with USB, optical and coaxial inputs, remote control and a useful display. It is especially handy for a compact desktop or secondary system, and its measured performance and flexibility are still respectable. Check that the remote and power supply are included, and confirm whether it is the original DX3 Pro rather than the improved DX3 Pro+, but even in excellent condition £175 is difficult to justify against the current used market.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
