Its got the USB DAC chip built into the cable, powered from the USB bus. Only $20.

The opposite extreme is the cosecant from Wavelength Audio.

What I'd like is something in the middle. A kit board with the USB controlled and DAC chip(s), but DIY power supply and analog output stage.

Maybe get a cheapo commercial thing and rip the board out to do my own mods?

So the samples come with an evaluation board do they? That wasn't clear from the web site. It looked to me like the evaluation kit cost $149 US.

Looks like the PCM2707 is a nice option to use with a separate DAC chip. For the built in DAC then the PCM2702 seems the way to go.

Good it may be. Good it better be since it costs $2000 US!

I was rather thinking on something along the lines of this product:

DIY Eden USB DAC

But is seems (I can't read chinese) to be no longer available.
