Apogee Mini-DAC w/Firewire
Finally got Apogee Mini-DAC and mainly use it for browsing audio files stored in my MacBookPro via Firewire interface, mostly AIFF and WAV. I also use it with my Blu-ray HDD recorder via TOSLINK and with my CDP (Primare CD31) via AES (not yet set up).
FYI, I bought Mini-DAC via Akane-san @Vintage King Audio, she's Japanese and no worries about placing an order in Japanese.
Actually Apogee got some export limitations and not all stores in US can export
Apogee equipments to sell outside USA since they need to protect agencies outside USA.
Tax charged is 2,900 JPY.
For AC adapter, I prepare better one than equipped with, it's AY-Denshi's DC12V1.25A and it works perfect with Mini-DAC:).
