At the second filtercap,is that at the ouput of the PSU?There it is 4.97v
Actually I just choose the first transformer I came across in the Elfa catalog..
And I had to slightly bend the pins of the transformer to make it fit on the pcb.

And the extra fuse holder...I forgott there was a fuse on the pcb but had drilled the hole on the back..so I thoght I just as well use it..:rolleyes:

What happends if you twist the Spdif cable?
 
Hi Fred, can you explain why you use 2 fuses in series ? ;)
Double safety :D, no, just laziness :eek:

Nice build, how does the power supply perform ?
The PS performs very well, I had my second Dac board built last weekend.
I am able to compare various PS that I have built for this Dac side by side.
To my ear and my gears, this PS is better than all the souped up 7805/LM317 types of PS and is a touch below the Salas BiB 1.1. But considering the simplicity of packaging the PS and the Dac in one small chassis with such quality, it will be difficult to beat.
