Mission DAD 7000

audio-kraut · 20th July 2006, 05:47 AM

I am looking to add a digital spdif output to my mission dad 7000.
I would need to know where to tie into at the circuit board, not having a diagram to help.

Any knowledgable persons familiar with this unit out there?
Help is very much appreciated

Thats what it says.
After all - the mission was based on the philips (104 I think) and maybe not only based - maybe they just changed the logo and the exterior a bit.

BTW - what the author says about "greyish sound" it is just a golden eared expression of BS. Nothing greyish in my chain, cant even keep it apart from a pioneer DV 59AVI thats running via digital output to the deq. And that despite the missions "lousy" captive rca cord.

If it is the CD104, that would mean the SAA70x0 chipset. It has no built in SPDIF capability.

I fear that is the case. I found a link at diy af that discussed this matter regarding the philips 104, and there really is no easy way apparently to include a spdif output.

Thanks for the help, too bad - the drive would be worth the effort if it could be done.

I had a DAD7000 many moons ago and it is indeed a Phillips CD104 with remote control added. It also had a "filter" on the output that simply chopped off the high frequencies.....it very quickly made way for a Marantz CD94

What do you mean by that? I follow the spectrum through a behringer deq and cannot see that any frequencies below 20kHz are chopped off - and I compared this unit directly in a/b comparison with a pioneer 59 avi - the latter was running digital direct to the behringer, the mission output was connected to a bryston preamp and from there to the behringer. I heard absolutely no difference in direct a/b comparison.

Well, keeping in mind I dont know one end of a soldering iron from the other I suppose I was hoodwinked by the technical blurb and the magazine reveiws of the time.

It is supposed to have some kind of a filter, (on the analogue output I assume) that chops off any high frequency nasties, the aim being to give a more relaxed, or "analogue" sound

From memory I think it is in a small potted box (this is going from my memory of the reveiws at the time, I never looked) fitted somewhere near the captive output cable. Any technical speak is lost on me, sorry!
