For sale, my SB+.
Bought new from Patrick this was the first real "serious" audio streamer that was capable of matching a good CD player.
The player is basically an SB3 on steroids, using the SB3 control system, but then adding new clocks, DAC, analogue output stage and a monster torroidal transformer in a separate box. IIRC the DAC upsamples.
As it's based upon the SB3 is also benefits from standard Slimserver software, which is very used friendly. The unit can support 24 bit files with a sample rate of upto 48khz.
Connections are either RCA phono or via BNC coaxial digital (I will include a BNC to RCA adapter in the sale).
The photo below is of the unit in question. Note that the I had custom solid maple end plates added to mine by Patrick to better match my speakers.
The unit will come with it's original box, power lead and remote. Note that the remote was only used to program my Marantz learning remote, so is virtually unused.
I've heard a lot of digital sources over the years, and IMO this is capable of matching CD players and newer streamers at around £2-3k. It easily bested my old Bel Canto DAC2 and was IMO very similar to the newer Linn DS Majik.
I'm happy to post to anywhere in England, Scotland or Wales, please don't ask if you're outside of those countries.
For anyone wishing to collect, I'm located in Sutton, south London (near Kingston). I'm also happy to dem to anyone who collects.
Looking for £675.
Any questions, feel free to ask.
