How you have connected the Zapfilter 2 (DAC Balanced Voltage output or Balanced Current output) ?

I suggest to you eliminate the resitor I/V 80ohm and use as voltage.

I have it set up for balanced current, with bubbles 1,3,4,5,7 closed on zapfilter and the 4 jumpers installed on the dac end.

Looks like I need to change the bubbles to 2, 4, 6 on zapfilter and remove the 4 dacend jumpers for balanced voltage.
Does removing the jumpers take the I/V resistor out of the circuit?

I want to let it run it a little more, and spend some more time listening before I make changes, maybe I will try it this weekend.

I did a quick check of the jumpers, after thinking about it, it didn't seem right to add them for current out.

The jumper adds a 22 ohm resistor to ground, for each output (L-, L+, R-, R+).

Seems like I should remove jumper for I out?

hi!

if you need DAC run at V-out, you not use 4 jum. you see?

If need DAC run at I- Out, need use 4 jum!
thanks
 
I get to show you the complete DAC include:

1. the jacw input: BNC, RCA, Balance in, Balance out, TOSLINK, the wiring, labor costs for completion and installation of complete
2. 4 opam 2134
3. complete installation, you only use.
4. all price: $ 150

You need me, please pm me!

Thank you!

This evening I have tested the following configurations with a my friend with lot of experience on audio reprodution and recording.

1) Actual op-amp module (balanced with passive IV 10ohm)
2) Satri design (balanced not suggested because it does not work good on balanced circuit)
3) Raleigh Audio Line Stage clone with K & K Audio Basic CCS modules (balanced current mode with passive IV 10ohm)
4) Un-balanced direct connection in voltage mode with only 2.2uF Z-Cap capacitor (0.1uF bypass MKP1837 as option)
5) Lundahl LL1684 (balanced in voltage mode with OS-CON)

The last is the best.

Any idea how well a LL1527 would work instead of the LL1684?

I don't doubt the 1684 is better, but I can get the 1527 for much less, and I have a limited budget.

Quanghao,

Wow!, and you still have time to organize and build a group buy! Congrats...

Hi guys, halo, congratulations you got the DAC and run it.

The remaining friends, including the DAC + power transformer ....

I need to do the following to ensure the transportation and the best for you.

I am alone, just the kids just do these things, but very hard but fun:

1. all mounting screws on the bottom
2. installed power transformers
3. mounting screws on the front

4. installation screen controller

5. DAC board assembly and packaging shell +

You see attached picture

Thank you all for your trust.


A dac running is a pleasure for me!
 
Can anybody explain what this meant ?

I want to say is: You will get complete product, you just enjoy the music. Please see pictures for better understanding!

Thank you!
