Tweaking the DAC 1.1

Posted by Steven R. Rochlin on April 3, 2000 at 03:13:02:

Robert,

>>>...The standard DAC 1.1 isn't really a useful improvement over that, but I upgraded it by changing all the 1 watt metal film resistors to either Tants or Rikens, all the Digi board and Analog board caps (except the Wimas) to Black Gates, and the power supply caps to Black Gates and resistors to Mills or Yamamuras. Tremendous lowering of the noise floor, increase in ambience, naturalness and tone, and effortlessness.<<<

Thanks for the updates. i, too, am going to be going the way of Black Gate, silver wire, and other tweaks. Aaahhhh, the next level in getting the most from this kit. :-{)

Enjoy the music,

Steven R. Rochlin
