Hi, I have a self modded DI/O and Risch cable tp MF A300 amp. I use a Cambridge D500SE as a transport to DI/O. It sounds really good to me :-) I tried a 48/96...
& still maintaining the original case! anyone? _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam? Get advanced junk mail...
i also tried the gw-labs dsp upsampler, which is the monarchy dip & monarchy upsampler in one box. w/o the upsampling engaged, there was no difference...
not necessary, get this: http://www.rdlnet.com/fpspr1.htm ~$90 from fullcompass.com. a few $$$ more for a power supply for it. they also have ones from...
i'm building a transportable headphones setup with the ART. i don't want to mess up with converters (though this unit doesn't seem like something that would...
hi hirsch, of course i could be wrong - my info came from sam tellig of s'phile! ;~) accordng to sam, the gw-labs dsp combines the dip & upsampler into one...
Adam here.. asking for some help about the DI/O. well, despite not knowing crap about electronics, i managed to bring the DI/O to a quite decent level with: 1....
Here's some additional suggestions that aren't at all hard to do: A. should i get a line filter? Yes. Jon Risch has a digital isolation transformer design...
... yes, i saw that. i was looking for opinions on certain brands and values from ppl that tried several. ... which are the exact resistors to replace? only...
again,these are my mods by far: 1. 9VAC 3amper PS (custom made in israel) - should i try anithing else? is there something special i should ask for, if so? 2....
adam, perhaps a ps made in palestine? ;~) seriously, unless ya wanna spend big money on one from boldercables.com, what ya have is likely sufficient. plug...
Hi, just a question to Doug S. (or anybody else) regarding isolation transformers: is there a significant benefit to having separate transformers for the dac...
hi chuck, ymmv, but i got a similar quieting of noise floor & add'l detail adding the second isolation x-former, as i did getting the 1st one... as decent...
I didn't follow the whole thread on the DIO vs Dack on the Audiocircle, but I wonder if a test was done using also batteries. Has anyone done that? Carlos E....

the di/o, running on ac power, may be tough to run off batteries... this issue came up in one thread, tho - someone thought it an unfair adwantage for the di/o...
... It certainly is. To modify the DI/O for battery power is not so difficult really, even if you decide to stick with the output ICs. It's just a question of...

hey there. i understand that there's a version of the isolation transformer to install inside the DI/O, like the one i see i Craigs' FAQ. but he also mentions...
Adam, I think the ground referenced transformer should work fine and its simpler to wire up. Its what I use in my DIO. I haven't chatted with Craig about...
There are a wide variety of choices today for converting the SP/DIF signal from your transport. Most recently is a non-oversampled unit from Ack! Industries...
I am still very interested in the mods you are doing and would love to see photos along with more detailed instructions. Keep up the good work, thanks. Kevin...
Hold on everyone - that meeting was back in November of last year. There was also a meeting at my house in June, with a modded DI/O vs. vinyl shootout. Please...
Oops, I can make it up to folks who are interested in this comparison as I have access to both a stock DI/O and a heavily modified unit. Send me an email if...
LT1365 was the first op-amp of choice, but many found it a bit forward and analytical LT1362 is the lesser brother (lower specs) but for some reason sounds...
