And you believe reviews ?
It is always nice to talk in extremes to proove someone is wrong. You can see it like this: in case a nice device is tested one can write a bit nicer about it.

A friend of me still use a non oversampling DAC close to that one about
|| DHTRob - System: Non-oversampling TDA1543 dac (NoNo-dac).. ||
No high resolution digital sources for 24 bit/96 KHz are connected, only two classic compact disc player with S/P-DIF output (16 bit, 44,1 KHz). The models are the DiscMagic from Cambridge Audio and an older Marantz with CDM4 transport, model CD-52. Both players are equipped with a separate clock generating unit from LC technology. The digital cable lead is very short (arround 0,3 meters).
My question: will he get a sonic enhancement, if he replace the SPDIF receiver IC CS8412 against an other modern version like CS8420 or CS8416?
Thank you for your comments.

Hi, I would keep the 8412 and use the monkeysect values for the PLL. Just use google for it. It are just different values for 3 parts. The 8412 will perform better. You could replace the 8412 for a newer revision if you can find them. I got rid of the last 2 last week so don't ask me.
Maybe changing the 8412 for a DIR9001 to CS8412 adapter as found on Ebay will improve things. CS8416 certainly won't ! I don't know CS8420 AFAIK.
