Hi,
what about paralleling lots of chips after I/V stage ?
Wouldn`t that reduce distortion of the I/V conversion too ?
PCM56 got small footprint, voltage output, is single channel ( can be selected for minimum distortion ) and has provision for bipolar zero adjustment.
A minimum of 50 pieces would nicely fit on a double size euro pcb.
50 chips per channel, each individually adjusted for minimum distortion, voltage outputs connected together via 1 k resistors.

Actually paralleling after the da is counter productive. Design the circuit well and the distortion will be quite low.

da = I/V 😕
Why ?
4 options:
Separate DAC chip I-outs with separate I/Vs.
Separate DAC chip I-outs with a common I/V.
Common DAC chip I-outs with paralleled I/Vs.
Common DAC chip I-outs with a common I/V.
