Ultra high-end of its time, maybe even today I wonder. I saw one, once. A friend of mine has the matching preamp and amp to that unit right now, for sale soon.
Not sure if the 30.6 was an R2R, had the Burr Brown PCM 7106 chip set too. Apparently the 30.6 was considered to be comparable to the must have dream Ferrari of it's time. Bet it would still sound amazing today. Pretty sophisticated for it's time, around 1999 'eh? Good Grief, there's one listed on eBay right now for $5830 buy-it now.
Nice writeup on 30.6, here :
