Hi,
I would like to show you the end of a long project.
I have been working for a very long time now on a R-2R DAC using a Vishay foil resistors and a FPGA. The DAC can also be a 2 way or a 3 way digital active crossover. This web site is the full project presentation.

Hi,
I have just finished an enclosure for a demo DAC. It will be shipped for listening tests.

A review is beeing written by 6moons:
6moons audio reviews: TotalDac
And a few weeks ago I compared it to a MSB platinium diamond DAC!

There are so many different USB to spdif or PCI to spdif etc... I use a DIY board using a pcm2902 followed by a analog 2.4GHz video transmitter but it is limited to 48KHz.
I prefer when the spdif generator from a PC is separate because these equipments are rapidly obsolete. I want my DAC to be used even in 20 years.

Great work, Vincent!
I also love the old Wadia DACs, especially I like the Wadia 27ix
How does the TotalDAC sound compared to a very good Wadia?
I think the Wadia is also a very good choice if don't need more than 96K (only 27ix)
Has anyone compared both devices?

Wadia is not often compared to Totaldac.
emmlabs, MSB, DCS, Meitner are more common competitors because there are real digital audio specialists.
I have a few customers who had an old Wadia before and they kept the totaldac after the test period.

Who have heard this DAC against vintage versions with PCM63 and discrete I/U converter like D1 from PassLabs?
