For Sale: Pro-Ject Pre Box S2 DAC/Preamp. Dual ES9038Q2M Chips.

The tiny 5v USB power connector broke off, so I just used the other USB connection for power. You can power the unit via USB (Type B connector) and switch to Optical or Coax, or connect direct to computer for USB connection.

Comes with the Type B USB Power adapter and cable. I have a non-stock, programmed universal remote included.

Currently sells for $499 on crutchfield...hows $150 shipped CONUS?
