Trouble Understanding an Ad.


I am thinking about upgrading to a stand alone DAC so I have been perusing US Audio Mart. I came across an ad listing a Moon 280D as well a a Moon MiND V2 Streamer. If I'm understanding right these are separate components or am I wrong and this is a Streamer DAC? For some reason an Emotiva Tube amp is in the pics, at least that's what I believe it is. There is no way to contact seller. What am I dealing with?

If the retail price is indeed $2500, then the seller's asking price makes no sense. In my experience, any dealer will give you 10% off of retail right off the bat. Most will go as high as 20% ... although, in today's post-covid audio dystopia all bets are off! 

OP should contact a dealer to see what kind of pricing they can offer. Why take a chance on used just to save a couple of hundred dollars?

It may be the single unit which sells for $3,400. usd, OP needs to verify.

I ended up passing on it. I am streaming 24/192 and have no need for DSD capabilities.
