laugh.gif i dont speak ur language man...but i guessing ur saying the Zhaolu is better. wont be surprised honestly. but considering those damn things are difficult to get now... i think this is actually quite a steal. it really does sound good (too lazy to write review right now tongue.gif )

the unit i have is on loan....heck, i just might buy it off laugh.gif
*
lol..i also dun speak that lingo..
But Rm410 for a external DAC sure will pwn those PCI sound card kaw kaw....I am comparing those who use PC as source...Nowaday, most medium price range MOBO come with at least optical output...
I would said is another alternative to PC user who have audiophile sense...smile.gif

For those who are bothering about no SPDIF connection available from you computer, I may help you guys getting USB to SPDIF signal converter like below, so it works like getting signal from your USB port and through that device, after that the signal will be convert into SPDIF signal and send to the ZERO dac. TATTa ~~~ There your ZERO dac would start singing! And this useful little device would only cost you guys RM20.

Nope, it connects your USB cable to this device and then convert the USB signal into SPDIF. So this is for those got DAC which accepts SPDIF digital input but unfortunately the computer got no SPDIF output.
LOL I guess i gotta do one time FREE community service to help you guys get this but of course with the condition: I'm able to complete the ZERO dac bulk! So you guys please hurry up to grab your ZERO dac!  cool2.gif

oh..forgot to ask. wat is the spdif output? optical only? or coax only or optical ony or both?
But anyway, put me 2 units..tongue.gif

Is this the browndog adapter you guys talking about? Changing single op to dual op. I can get 5 for around RM10 if you guys want. There also the adapter to change SOIC to DIP.

Yup, that's only for the pcb board. The dip cost around RM1 for 1 unit and the pin around RM3 for 40 together. It's a little bit cheaper but lazy to do the conversion. It's selling separately so need to do some solder job. So should be around RM20 to get 5 set.

Tention,

I have a brief discussion with teNtiOn. We will do a non-profit bulk for this browndog adapter. I will bulk 10 units for 1 time only. teNtiOn is so kind enough to help me make it into final product (No DIY, Plug and play tongue.gif). thumbup.gif thumbup.gif
The total cost for 10 unit will be: RM40 (parts) + RM15(Oversea Shipping) + RM5(Poslaju to me) = RM60
So 1 Unit will be RM6 +Postage fee to your door step. I dun offer any COD unless U can come to MMU Melaka. smile.gif

U guys need to be fast. Coz 1 unit of browndog adapter is selling like USD5 (excluding shipping fee) at Ebay!!!

Once again, this is a NON-Profit bulk brought by a music lover to another...

I dun want to take any deposit, but I will definately curse those who FFK after U confirm yr order!!!
PST me if U interested.

**Once again, credit to teNtiOn because he will spend his effort to make it into final product with NO CHARGE**

Buyer list for Browndow Adapter (10 units only):
1. mikelanding - 3 units
2. nicholas_1213 - 3 units (+2 OPA627AP) [Paid]
3. Kyl3 - 1 unit (+2 OPA627AP) [Paid]

5. ccschua - 1 unit (+2 OPA627AP) [Paid]
6. stormspider - 1 unit (+2 OPA627AP) [Paid]
Left 0 units..pls dun feel sorry!!


Those who interest in OPA627AP. The price is USD14 per unit(ship to your door step). Min order is 4 units,which mean min 4 units will ship to 1 address. U guys can sort out yourself to divide among them. If kena tax, U have to bear it (but I doubt U will kena). I still taking order for Opamp627AP.

Added:
1) Important note: Due to CNY, the adapter only will be ready 2-3 weeks at best...Please dun rush me or teNtiOn brother...We do it for goold will and U dun pay anything up front..Pls understand..smile.gif
2) For those who order 1 X Adapter + 2 X OPA627AP, pls bank in USD28X3.25 + RM6 (Poslaju Fee) = RM103 (corrected..sorry) latest by (04/Feb/2008 Monday). If U want to sent together with Adapter pls add RM6 for it..pm me for bank detail
3) Bank in Detail. Pls PM me or Screen shot it once U have bank into me. TQ
