Hi Acko,

I am finally done with what I wanted to accomplish a long time ago - a digital crossover with 4 channels. As you know I had a lots of ups and downs, and at the time gave up on idea and ended up with just single DAC. I came back to the original idea, worked very hard and ended up with a great success. Thank you very much for your support. Here is the link for my project with pictures describing the build. DACs used are Acko's ESS9012 boards and Acko's Turbo clock driving everything in a sync mode.

Thank you AR2, you are a champ :cheers:
A lesser man would have given up long ago given the elaborate setup!
 
This product has been updated to use the latest ES9038PRO chip!

And a low cost one for DIYers to experiment!

I'm looking for a new dac for my system . Do you plan to offer a in a box option ?

Hi,

Boxed version is beyond the scope of this project at this stage. Please PM me if you need something built up completely.

The next level of integration is using power supplies as shown. Again users may want to pare back a bit to save on costs by sharing power supplies. Others may want to use batteries for complete isolation from mains.
