Buffalo II

Russ, maybe you guys should do bigger batches

Amen, or take deposits & keep a waiting list.

Brian and I would love to, but its just a matter of capacity. It takes a lot of time to build up the kits and test modules etc. This is not a full time business for us. Just a hobby.

Brian & Russ,

Do what you can and take your time. Audio isn't EVERYTHING! When you have a previous generation design, such as the Buffalo 32S coming so close to Weiss Dac 2 for pennies on the dollar, there is little to complain about. The next time, wake up and be quick with your mouse.

Good job fellas!

Anand.

What is the gain of TP I/V modules?

It is user adjustable.

Stock values:

IVY III: 2VRMs.

Legato 1 and 2: 1.5VRMs

For single ended users it is best to adjust the gain of the BAL/SE stage and not the I/V stage. This applies to both IVY and Legato.

I asked how much gain, not output amplitude.
What is the amplitude at the output of the DAC chip?

Then you are ignorant of the question you should be asking.

This is current to voltage conversion, not voltage amplification.

Now if you are interested on how much current gets converted into how much voltage you can find that answer in two very convenient places. The above post, and the manuals/schematics.

So, what is the DAC's output current?
What is the DAC's output amplitude when operating in voltage mode?

Seriously? Have you read the Buffalo manual yet? Please do.
