TOTALDAC REFERENCE 1

I listened to industrial DAC chips (from Analog Device, TI, Philips, Cirrus Logic, Wolson, AKM...). Some of them were NOS chips known for their nice sound such as TDA1541, TDA1545 (used in CD723), TDA1543, PCM56, AD1852 (used in Teac VRDS 25x), CS4328, PCM1702 used in many high end CD players in the past, PCM1704... Some were really nice but never very accurate. I listened to them with and without oversampling whenever possible. I used a Pacific Microsonic PDM100 HDCD digital filter, one of the best digital filter. I also listened to many new DAC chips from TI and Analog Device in particular. It required micro controller programming most times. The sound was often a bit metallic. Lastly I could listen to a discrete R2R DAC made of simple 1% resistors. Musicality was there but some accuracy was missing. This was the start point of my ultimate DAC. I spent 2 years and 5 revisions of PCB to improve it and finally use 0.01% Vishay foil resistors and other improvements in the FPGA. This type of DAC doesn't need a I/V converter.

Yo aquí lo que veo es otro motivo más de sugestión

Lo que es impresionante es el chip de producción propia de dCS. El RING dac, acojona:
