Hi Russ,
I've just browsed your web site (interested by the Buffalo 3 8 channel DAC and I just see that the 4 channel SPDIF is sold out.
Do you have an approximate time frame for its future availability ?
By the way, I plan to combine a mini-sharc DSP from minidsp along with your Buffalo III 8 channels to build a DSP crossover but have to check for compatibility (I'm new to all this...)
Best regards from France

We just ordered a new batch (should be arriving any day) with a redesign to make it more robust.
It now has an on-board VREG, and a better comparator along with the addition of some hysteresis to smooth out rough edges on inputs. 🙂
Looking forward to these arriving!

Well, thanks it looks good .I just placed an order of a Buffalo 3 DAC with some more stuff. a couple of days ago and wondering how long it will take to be processed ? In case the new batch arrive in the mean time I would like to add one to my order (with the necessary parts too)
Just let me know

They should be here Monday (there was a manufacturing delay). I will need a few days for assembly and testing.
How is the assembly and testing working out?
I'm looking forward to replacing my S/PDIF board with the more robust design.

I have one built, but have not had time to test it fully. I am really busy at work at the moment. I will try to get it tested tonight, however.
Took me a long time to get to the testing, but it has gone very well. Kits are available now.
I will post some pictures tomorrow..

Can you post that picture here or on your website? I want to make sure I install T1-4 correctly. Pictures really help. 🙂
You can't install them wrong. They work the same either way as they are 1:1 transformers. 🙂 Still I think Brian will be posting pictures soon.
Cheers!

On the test rig...
The forth transformer position is jumpered because I was testing different input types (AES/EBU, consumer S/PDIF, TOSLINK module in consumer mode, TOSLINK in TTL mode). TTL worked fine with or without the transformer, though I would probably opt to not use it.
EDIT: Also, note the direct mounting. I now include a female header to mate to the male header on the Buffalo, securing it with standoffs.

Male / Female standoffs work much better. Lucky for me, I have some left over from another project.
