This is a DAC
mainly designed for audiophile and studio guys or
who need long distance connection by XLR.
The balanced version was designed to be a real balanced
structure; i.e. two Pagoda, one in positive sig and one negative.
Total 4 PCM1704 dac chips were used, each chip is
independent for right and left as well as positive and negative
signals.
In RCA connection, this dac is the same as
original Pagoda Dac.
In XLR
connection, you get double amplitude signal out.
CS8416
digital input with non-oversampling structure.
This is
traditional DAC, cannot decode HDCD signal.
The
digital signal accepted is based on the capability of CS8416 digital
receiver, which means the max: 192KHz 24bits input Spdif format.
USB input: Up
to
96kHz/ 192KHz
(*) 24bits
then convert to spdif then to CS8416
no over-sampling, no digital filter
Utilize
legendary R-2R multi-bits Burr Brown standard PCM1704 (non grade) (24 bits) DAC chip.
No
differential phase
shift in both channels.
More
detailed yet natural and musical sounding.
Metal case,
with silk brushing aluminum plates , acrylic front panel.
