Hi hdmi,
You may get what you are asking for, but I agree with jean-paul that you are asking a lot.

Consider these are used chips. They may have been pulls from units in the trash, we just don't know. I have far better uses for $52 dollars, like a new BB DAC chip or the better part of a demo board.

If you can get it, they are obviously worth that much to the people buying these parts.

Hi QSerraTico_Tico,

What' s a fair price in your opinion Jean-Paul?

Do you support prices like these?

I'll let you know what my idea of fair might be. $5.00 each for used IC's that represent very old technology. This is possibly second generation stuff at best, maybe first generation chips. Can you imagine building that DAC from ECDesigns at these prices?

I think I have about 25 pieces new in original packaging. They are normal chips, not special types. Mind you, these were Mission stock ICs and are known to sound pretty good. They are in Philips blister packs.

No, I don't intend to sell them. I just don't think this chip is special. PCM56 DACs have a strong following too. They are still older technology.

Firstly i don't know what these are worth. But Chris, some consider the TDA1541 double crown to be the best DAC chip (for 44/16) ever made. The single crown is one notch down. They are becoming rare so value is going up.

AMR spent at least 10s of thousands of dollars in research with the original designer so that they could make any 1541 work as well as a double crown.

I have my stash of single crowns, i'm hanging on to them too.

Hi Dave,
I agree, and that may be. But my point is that these are pulls for pete's sake!

It doesn't matter though. Customers will choose for themselves.
