HEGEL Mohican. HEGEL ceasing manufacture due to parts shortage. Reviewers love it and I find their comments appealing. One open box available.Should I go for it? Thanks.
Never heard a Hegel, but yes, it gets pretty good reviews.  What is the “part shortage”?  Is it the DAC chip?  The chip manufacturer AKM lost their factory in a fire.  My Bryston DAC recommendation and their CD players would be affected here as well.
  If it is chip availability issue, then I wouldn’t worry to much, as nothing really happens to break a DAC chip.  If otoh its something else, like a disc transport, and someone has already returned the item, I’d be a bit more concerned.  Is the dealer offering a return policy?  And where is the service center located if there is a problem?  Hopefully you don’t have to ship it back to Norway
Get an audiolab transport and run it into the border patrol dac R2R with tubed rectification power supply.
