Angeboten wird „Rossini DAC & Network Player/Streammer“ von DCS als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Digital Streamer“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 8734120890 endet am 12.07.2026 um 08:59 Uhr.
In good condition, €12,000 sits below the €12,432 25th percentile, so this is a genuinely strong buy versus the current comparable EUR asking-price set. It’s also comfortably under the €12,696 median and only a little below the lower quartile, which makes the pricing look buyer-friendly rather than merely fair.
That matters because this is a highly regarded DAC: the Rossini line is known for very clean conversion, strong timing, and a refined, spacious presentation that still competes hard in serious two-channel systems. At this level, a clean unit with sensible ownership history is the kind of used purchase that can save a lot versus new while still landing in true reference territory; I’d just confirm firmware status, remote/control extras, and that the seller can show a fully working unit.
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.
