I am just curious on this DAC especially the WOLFSON DAC.
I used to have a 'cap ayam' DVD player bought from TESCO that played audio CD with a good quality sound! It did not last long however as the CD mechanism refused to read any CDs/DVDs after a year(ie warranty expired). At 79.90 I just wanna throw it away but I did open up and have a look at the mainboard. Guess what, there lies a WOLFSON DAC!

Teddy Pardo of TeddyPardo High End Audio among the products, is selling a HIGH END DAC that costs more EURO1163, he also uses a WOLFSON DAC albeit a different unit. wink.gif

Click products then DACs.

So let's see how good this WM8501 is against my other two commercial DACs..

It's 'cheap' so what the heck!

This is MUCH better than the previous PCM2704 USB DAC you bringing. I like the idea PCM2706 convert USB to I2S, then feed to WM8501 which itself don't need any opamp.

Would be better if it have RCA out though.

Hmmm I see where you're getting at.. wink.gif
Surely it is (electrically) possible to 'tap' the signal from the PCM2706 and port it elsewhere.. hmm.gif

tapping the signal is easy but if i follow this path i need to design a special switching circuit for switching between i2s data from dac receiver and i2s data from this usb board to my dac chip...

Yeap, pcm270X families is no way to catch up wm8501. rclxms.gif

There might be RCA output at the final product, who know tongue.gif
