  Thanks T!

  Any idea where to get the PCM56?
  Tried several sources like rs-componets etc. but wasn't able to find it.
  Looks like that the CS8412 will get hard to find too (was easy last year over here in Germany, but now...).

    Hi,

    > Any idea where to get the PCM56?

    Try TI's website, they list plenty of sources with the PCM56, remember, it is a currently active and readily made product. You might even be able to get a pair of free samples (ever since TI took over BB they are a lot less tightfisted about samples I noticed recently).

    Use a CS8414 on adapter. Actually, the CS8414 is chunky enough for hardwiring anyway and there are few enough connections to make....

      Hi T,

      Our local RS-Comp has the PCM56P (I've yet to find a source for the Crystal Sem DIR).... Some questions though, did you try the schematic from the Japanese site or did you make your own design?Between the 5V to 12VDC supply, which specific V have you found "best" sounding (ie, sweet spot)? Thanks.

        I used my own, differences in powersuplies where applied, the core circuit happend to be identical, I even used a 74HC04 as it happened.

        I only used 5V.

          That's pretty cool...
          
          Thanks again T.
