We have made a new version version of the optical/coaxial input ES9023 DAC, this time in a case and with an added headphone amplifier. It has a trafo inside, so it runs on mains voltage directly.
The left knob switches between standby, optical and the two coaxial inputs, the right is a volume knob that controls the headphone output (not the direct line output).
Will be available after Chinese New Year, around mid february.
Dear HiFimeDIY people,
I have a question about your Sabre SPDIF DAC. The description says: “It features two outputs, one of them going through a potmeter for controlling volume, while the other is straight out without the pot. ”
Is the Output with the Volume control the one on the back (RCA) or the headphone-jack on the front panel?
Adiitional question: Is there a picture of the inside of the device, to check the general built quality?
Thanks!
Best regards, Johannes L. from Germany
or maybe has it a (selectable) I2S input on the board to connect to a raspberry PI source too?
Adding an USB receiver input would make this DAC a complete solution. Did you think about it?
