Rockna Wavedream Edition Balanced Digital Analog Converter (DAC) For Sale or Trade.Selling my Rockna Wavedream Edition Balanced Dac. A regretful sale but seeking some $ to divert to an avenue outside of audio. This DAC is one of the premier RDR DAC's. It offers immense resolution, staging, realism, and impact. I previously had a Chord DAVE and feel the Wavedream to be a material step up from the DAVE - particularly in terms of weight, making the DAVE sound too analytical and thin.ROCKNA WAVEDREAM EDITION DAC - Sound GalleryPlenty of reviews online as this DAC has really gained more shine for b
Condition is unknown, so the price does most of the talking: at A$6,900, it sits well below the A$8,696 25th percentile and far under the A$10,514 median of recent AUD comps, which makes this look like a strong deal rather than a merely fair one. For a Rockna WAVEDREAM-class DAC, that’s a meaningful discount.
That upside is real because this is the kind of digital front end buyers keep for its serious resolution, timing, and tonal density; when these DACs are right, they tend to sound more effortless and “analog” than most rivals. If the unit is clean, fully functional, and includes the right power supply, remote, and original accessories, it looks like a smart grab at this level.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
