RE: DAC Output Stage - a few more questions....

Posted by Mikey on December 30, 2009 at 16:54:44:
Hi Brian,

Thanks for the reply....a few more questions:

It seems I could choose one of two ways to implement the UTS with my CD player:

1. Obtain (1) UTS, and wire it as described in your previous post, with the 22ohm resistors to ground.
Are there any ill effects to utilizing the DAC chip this way?

2. Obtain (2) UTS, and wire them as described on page 22, with balanced outputs.
Page 10 shows the balanced output wiring, and it seems as though I can produce BOTH a single ended and balanced output in this configuration.

- Have you ever compared the two (single ended output) schemes?
- If so, which did you prefer?
- Is there a theoretical advantage to scheme #1 vs. #2?

- Is the kit with power supply in stock?
- How long is delivery to the U.S. (CT)?

Thanks for your help thusfar,

Mike
