diebenkorn Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 I bought a NOS dac (audiosector/audio zone) and love the sound and am wondering about these (audial see below) or other higher end NOS dac's. I know the arguments against these (noisy, no resolution etc) not interested in a debate. Any help with these dacs would be appreciated.

boomana Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 I don't understand what you're asking for since you've already made up your mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diebenkorn Posted March 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 about this kind of dac (NOS), sorry for the miscommunication. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pars Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Pedja Rogic (Audial) knows his shit. I'm building an earlier version of his TDA1541a NOS DAC (even though I don't believe in NOS ). This DAC was what Strohmie used in his DIY CD player also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Chalk Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Which one -- one has USB, so it can't be too NOS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvdunhill Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Which one -- one has USB, so it can't be too NOS. huh? what about just using USB to convert to i2s then into the NOS DAC? This is exactly what I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Never mind -- I misread NOS as New Old Stock, not Non Over Sampling. I got it now, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
