Maybe not. I used 2 of miro's PSU1 boards to split the power supply this way. You can pull filtered DC off of one board and feed it to the other all through the conveniently placed taps.Regarding the dac and psu. Did someone tried commercial discrete 3 pin regulator for the 12v & 5v?
The problem would lie in the distance. Im tinking of a small diy pcb for these regs to plug in the dac psu connections and feed this with filterd dc from a separate regulated board.
Wast of time?

Oke. But i mean if i buy 4 discrete regs. 12-, 12+, 5-, 5+. I would want them as close as possilbe to the dac/pcb. So if i make a third pcb for the regs and put the filtert dc from a (PSU 1 for example) board and then place this reg board on top of the dacby + ground - (bouth 12v and 5v). Get it?
One thing in the layout of Miro's pcb is you can not place regs on it or close to the chips. Thats why i start to think this maybe could be a options.

Interesting find today from another site - a commercial DAC offering with AD1862. If you click on the pics and have a look you will see the internals in one shot and the AD1862 are visible. Looks like a discrete solid state output stage, unknown USB to i2s converter, choke filtered supplies

Hard to see how this adds up to 15k but there you go. Take it as validation of the value we have received via Miro's (and plenty of other peoples') work.

Easy, fairy dust 😅Hard to see how this adds up to 15k but there you go.
There should be an EVO 2022 version coming out by the end of the year with pcm63p chips inside 🙂
We just need @miro1360 to make balanced version 😁
15k.... and it looks like a fairly standard implementation - OK we don't see the usb/spdif boards but you can just make out the solder connections for i2s near the big caps. Looks to be 4 connections up to power the top boards via the molex.
Anyway sorry for the off topic post, but just interesting to see that implementation

15k for an AliExpress chassis!!
Really??😳
Really??😳
Low-resonance high-rigidity extruded aluminum chassis. 🤣
Really miserable appearance, although they do not mention Aliexpress anywhere.
I don't have many complaints about the rest. But the price... What can I say and not cry. 😵

So sad, but thats what hifi is nowdays. Stuf that is done al before covered up with marketing bs. No more audio for the normal man. If you want to buy a dac you have to breng almost a year salary.
Glad this forum is here and people like Miro.

Aaaaaah yes Mystic & Mistery of why the asking price is 15K. LC supply is a good idea thoughLow-resonance high-rigidity extruded aluminum chassis. 🤣

@mikorist has a good preamp besides the PCM63 DAC. Maybe try listing it for sale for $25k? 🤔
Above is my not-so-pretty DDDAC. Design is not really my strong point. Maybe I'll replace the front panel sometime, to increase the price a little. 🤣
