DAC Tour

[jkeny]

Hi All,
I'm thinking of setting up a tour of my devices around forum members. The DACs are USB input only & will work with PC or Mac, no Linux/Unix. They all operate from an internal battery & can handle 24/192 datastreams natively, no upsampling.

They use a modified Hiface running on battery as the USB receiver. The JKDAC uses an ESS Sabre DAC chip & is capable of also directly driving most headphones (AKG 701s are out, I'm afraid). The JKDAC32 uses a 32bit BB/TI DAC chip which incorporates a minimum phase filter & is capable of 32/192 operation.

I was also thinking of including a USB to SPDIF output device which can feed SPDIF into any DAC. Again this uses a modified Hiface & internal battery power.

More details, users & press reviews can be found on my website

Post here if there is any interest & I will set-up a distribution list. Could I also ask someone to volunteer to help administer this for me & verify the participants? Obviously only active AOS members can be accommodated i.e those with a posting history.
