What is your intention?
Upgrading sound quality? Then a change of the receiver chip alone won't help. Changing the frontend to a ASRC fed from a local low-jitter clock can improve things as well as reclocking near the DAC chips.
If all you need is 96/24 compatibility, the CS8414 will work as a pin-compatible replacement, and, depending on the application (schematic?), if you're lucky you won't have to modify anything else.

My intension is only to replace a CS8412 inside a DAC,but i can not find a 8412 at Crystal Inc only 8414.

Which reciever do you have right now?ManUtd said:

I have CS8412 inside a DAC from AudioSynthesis called DSM.
peranders said:They main difference between the recievers is that the 8414 can take 96 kSp so if you don't have any 96 kSp material this won't be a great upgrade.
Only reason for this change is i can`t find any CS8412.

A'af said:What do you mean manutd, upgrade with the same chip doesn't result anything, if you wanna make difference try give that chip a better power supply and wanna make a little extereme, power your DAC with battery, make a big leap change.
Reason why i say "upgrade" is because CS8412 is defective
and then i thought it could be upgraded at same time.

AMT-freak said:I can supply CS8412 if you need one. Send me email. Those chips aren't exactly cheap, though.
Thanks,but i can have some here and they cost approx. 12£

Which type of cap for 8412 loopfilter
I have been looking at the loopfilter of the CS8412- Currently I am using the Wildmonkeysects arrangement- 3300pF between filt and Agnd, 220nF and 470R in parallel to the 3300pF cap.
I am using polyesters in my lash-up, but wonder if I could do better...
My problem is finding suitable small quality capacitors in these sizes:
Ceramic- Small but microphonic?
Polypropylene- too big, hence too inductive?
Polyester - too lossy at?
Which do I choose?

Excellent- Just the sort of reply I wanted - Cheers

How about this one for the 220nF polyester:
Wima MKS 02
And for the 3300pF...
LCR EXFS
Seem appropriate?
P.S. I thought polystyrenes weren't great at r.f. Did I think wrong?
