From MSB Website regarding present trade in:
Up to 90%? What can I actually expect?
Up to 90% when trading The Cascade DAC in “good condition” for The Sentinel DAC while in current production.
Up to 50% when trading The Select DAC with or without the Select Digital Director in “good condition” for The Sentinel DAC while in current production.
Up to 50% when trading The Reference DAC with or without the Reference Digital Director in “good condition” for The Cascade DAC, or The Sentinel DAC while in current production.
Up to 90% when trading The Premier DAC with or without the Premier Digital Director in “good condition” for The Cascade DAC, or The Sentinel DAC while in current production.
Up to 90% when trading The Discrete DAC in “good condition” for The Premier DAC, The Cascade DAC, or The Sentinel DAC while in current production.
90% when trading The Premier Headphone Amplifier for The Dynamic Headphone Amplifier, or The Electrostatic Headphone Amplifier while in current production.
Up to 90% when trading The S202 Amplifier for two M205 Amplifiers, The S500 Amplifier, or two M500 Amplifiers while in current production.
Up to 90% when trading two M205 Amplifiers for two M500 Amplifiers while in current production.
Up to 90% when trading The S500 Amplifier for two M500 Amplifiers while in current production.
Up to 90% when trading The S500 Amplifier for two M500 Amplifiers while in current production.
Any products that fall outside of the “good condition” parameters will be subject to a restocking fee.
Any products that predate our current product offering will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
I hope MSB rethinks this because those with Reference or Select DACs are getting taken to the woodshed.
The list price on a Select II DAC is $115,000 which means you get $57,500 on trade. You lose $57,500 in value with trade.
The list price on a Reference DAC is $54,500 which means you get $27,250 on trade. You lose $27,250 in value with trade.
The list price on a Premier DAC is $27,500 which means you get $24,750 on trade. You only lose $2,750 in value with trade.
Clearly MSB has to make a profit to stay in business which I agree with. But having roughly the same trade in value for the Reference and Premier is a tough pill to swallow.
