Hi,
I am pretty new to diy electronics. Recently bought a DAC board from ebay. Obviously I didnt think it through to buy the power supply transformer. It requires a 15v-0-15v and 0-9v transformer. Found one on ebay (115V 230V 30W High Quality Audio R Core Transformer 15V 15V 9V 9V for Preamp | eBay). I have a lot of questions and I am sure you guys could be of great help here.
1. Not sure about the wiring aspects. which wire from this transformer goes where ?
2. Any idea what exactly is that ( circled in red ) on pic 1613 it says XMOS.
3. Is it worth using an enclosure ? I was planning to, but as I look at the board, the LEDs are all built into the board. If i were to do an enclosure, I want the LED indicators on the front pannel ( for eg. coax, usb, toslink etc ).
