I have an essentially new (original packing, never installed) ZAP Filter Mk2 from LC Audio products out of Denmark.
http://www.lcaudio.com/index.php?page=6
This is a discrete analog output stage for CD/DVD players and DACs. I bought it hoping to install into a GDA-600 I had at the time, but have since downsized and added a Squeezebox, which is now good enough to get what I need done. I'm clearing out some of the parts boxes from my workbench, and felt this deserved a good home.
Reports are this add-on greatly improves smoothness and transparency in the high-end particularly, but through the entire music range as well. I believe both Naim and Linn use discrete outputs like these on their high-end players (CDS3 and CD555, CD12, etc) The power supply board and coil are included, but could be optional depending on how you install/configure it. It can be installed on any DAC chip, as it accepts either voltage (V) or current (I) DAC output. It also has balanced or true unbalanced analog out options, which is a nice add-on by itself. This is the latest version of the filter board, with improved capacitors and layouts.
The package includes the circuit board as shown in the link above, small toroid power transformer, power supply circuit board, foam washer and mounting hardware for the toroid, and screws and standoffs for the boards, all original from LC Audio. I also have some brief instructions printed from the Web, and the LC Audio site provides good help for that as well.
Let my lack of space and spare time to install this in my system be your ticket to a better sounding rig. Price new is over US$200, not including shipping. I will part with it for $150/obo, plus shipping. I am in the US but can post anywhere, if buyer is OK paying appropriate shipping costs.
I also have two LC Audio Clock II Modules, one at 16.xxxMhz and one at 33.xxxMhz. One has been installed and removed, one is brand new still unopened, if anyone is interested in those as well.
Thanks!
Mike

My email is blocked because I'm a relatively new user and my account is in "Moderated" mode until I post some more non-sale/trade oriented material. Hopefully that will be removed within the next day or so (I'm posting some info today in various places). Sorry for the hassle.

Mike, no e-mail from you received. I did get an e-mail from diyaudio stating that you replied to my post.
My email is ichtuskeri@hotmail.com

Did you check any spam/junk folders? Hotmail usually works, but sometimes it gets routed there. I sent another moments ago. You can also email me directly from here now, click my username.

Mike not in junk mail, I click on your name but it is not allowing me to e-mail you directly yet. I will try later on tonight.
Wendell,
I sent an email from a different address that shouldn't have issues to your Hotmail address above. Let me know if you don't receive it.
Will,
The Zap filter has been sold (for $150). I have one XO Clock 2 for $90 (33.xxMhz).

Send me a message to estesdude@hotmail.com if you don't receive the one I just sent to you. The email has to work somehow, I'd rather not use this space to correspond.
