Hi guys. Is anybody using AK4396's digital volume control? Or does anybody know where I can get a controller with firmware for this DAC?

Is it possible to run this with an single 12V PSU?

Hi there

Many thanks for the replies, i have had the DAC soak testing for about 30 hours so far, i will let it loosen up a little before i do any mods.

If i'm still craving for a little more bottom end after 2-300hours i am going to change out all the capacitors as in Claves BOM for the power supply as a start, Nichicons and elnas on ebay are very cheap

For the time been i will read the full thread page by page.

Many thanks again for all the help

James

Hallo everyone
I am new here, i have asembled the dac kit but i swapped the 7809 with the 7912 in a accident. Now i am not sure that the dac i working. i will not connect i to my system before iam sure it work. My concern is that my friend tells me that the error, 96k and the power led diode will light when no input is connected, but in my case the only led diode is lighting is the power. Iam not sure i have burned some component off.
Another question is, i got a r-core trafo 2*9v and 2*15v, i got 4 set of wires, blue, white is 9v and yellow and brown is 15v but how do i connect it to the dac, i will put the two white in the 2 slot terminal, and one of the yellow and brown in the middle of the 3 slot terminsl, and a yellow and a brown in eatch side of the 3 slot terminal.

With a passive output (Without Opamp). Yes!

Nice!
Just what I planned to do, is it the 0-9v holes I use to the 0-12v?
What caps do you recomend?

Use the 0-9v holes and solder a bridge see photo.
