I think he meant ground noise 😀

It was ment as a masterclock in a CD-player. The clock in a DAC is received from the transport via SPDIF, though a PLL is used.
Elso,
Please have a look at this:
http://www.soundlabsgroup.com.au/lcaudio/lc_audio_lclock_xo_dac_installation.htm
Here the clock is installed at the separate D/A converter and sync signal sent to CD player.

Yeah that is a modification. I am aware of that! Not regular DAC. Does it work???
I don't need that clock in my DAC as it is NON-OS. I have I2S Direct, just one more line between DAC and player, and NO DIR!

Are you still using the AD1865-K?
How do you interface that to I2S without phase shift?
And is it better than the PCM63P?

TDA1543
hi Tom, No I switched to one TDA1543 NON-OS. I never tried PCM63 myself.

Is the TDA1543 still made? I cannot find it on Philips site.
What other DA converters can you recommend using I2S interface directly?

HI Tom
TDA1543 is long obsolete but not hard to find. Others swear by TDA1541 which also accepts Philips I2S format. The 2 DACs have reached kind of cult status.😎
Hi Elso,
And TDA1541 is obsolete also. Too bad. Are there any Burr-Brown devices that are as easy to interface?
I need a schematic that interface I2S to AD1865?

You want good sound or easy interface or BB DAC?🙄
You are an EE?
Easy with DF1704 I can use any BB DAC but some say NOS sounds better.
But now I will find a TDA1543, not so easy unless you trust somebody on EBAY from far foreign country.
Tom

yes but digital audio is convoluted for me.

cheap cd sound improvement
one of the cheapest ways to improve cd players is to buy these dr. scholl blue shoe inserts. not sure what their made out of but they work great. just cut the heel out and put under the existing cd's feet. pick the ones for men because their bigger and thicker. make sure it's the blue ones. they have so many different ones. they really cut out external vibration....

Tda1543 available ex UK and not on Ebay

Pieces of aircraft floor seem to be better! Very light & sturdy!
😎 Very high tech.

Square pieces that is.

Prevailing custom amongst the locals is to use LT1085, but the regulator isn't going to attenuate noise in the MHz range. Combine a good regulator with ferrite bead filtering and thoughtful PCB layout.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LT1085s are lousy when it comes to noise. Even selected 78/79x are better.
You need to use as many ALW regulators as possible!
