Kusonoki 4X TDA1543 DAC and Phonno Pre

john65b · 30th December 2010, 06:46 PM

Hey all,

I have to unload some stuff I have and these are first up.

4x TDA1543 DAC ala Kusunoki - all the components per the schematic. Comes with13V wallwart.

Battery powered OPAMP based Phono Pre with socket for testing different OPAMPS Currently with a LM6172

These were simple projects I finished a long while ago and both are in clear plastic boxes I got from IKEA.

How's $50 each shipped to US?

How does the Kusonoki dac sounds?Have you compared it with other dac's?

I prefer my CS4397 and CS4398 over it, but that's just me. I am sure there are many out there that would disagree. The TDA1543 still has quite a following.

The Kusonoki stacked TDA1543 sounds a bit dark and mellow, so on a relatively bright system, you may be quite happy.

I built this years ago - one of my first audio projects.

What caps are you using for I/V?

john65b · 23rd March 2011, 03:00 AM

I think they are 3300pF Polystyrene Capacitors
