Cobra2,
Cool find. Please tell us a little more about it.
Who makes it, was it a steel, what kind of DACS, do they look like they can be upgraded, any potential for using a better clock, any potential for using a better PSU, is the user interface acceptable, is that a USB connector on the back, are their more what that came from, yaddadadadada....

Ask, and he will send anywhere ( I think).
For the price, you cannot make a similar unit cheaper as DIY...but maybe better...?
Exept for the lack of DTS decoding, it far exeeds my old Technics ?500-something decoder.
See picture in earlier post...

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
Looks like a connector for Logitech and other 5.1 desktop systems.
I think I'm gonna buy one, what's 35euro/dollar nowadays ? In combination with my M-Audio Sonica this is what I'm looking for.

lets see who wants to make a PCB for a hifi DAC to piggy back onto this decoder? have a nice clean clock on it, new power supply...better caps... OPA627 op amps...etc. Shouldnt be too bad to make this a pretty high end unit.
sorry no luck on datasheets for the other chips...including the SPDIF reciever. Anyways the SB61L256BS-8 is probably a SDRAM module for the DSP.

Hi all,
Cobra, what type is the DSP?? This is the thing that cannot be modified. Otherhands DAC can become a good one, plus a very clean clock plus an ASRC for jitter reduction. AKM uses the standars IIS format, of cource. And as I see there is enough space for a good power supply, too.

Sorry, I guess I should have gone into more detail.
I was wondering, if instead of a decoder that decodes surround from an analog (2 channel) source, would it be simpler to build a receiver to recieve the signal from a coax digital output of a DVD player, and split it to the 5 amps and to the sub out?
