Microchip SW
Hi,
I have read most of the first thread about the Sabre DAC but not this one about the Sabre32. I suppose that the PIC with SW is included and that the DIP-switch is to select different settings in a well documented way, or?

Yay! I got one 😀
Insomnia has benefits sometimes... ok, bed time. Looking forward to building this!
Great thanks to the guys responsible!

Lol, sold out in minutes..
Will be interested in the next batch. Not really in a big hurry.
Good luck with building for those wo got one now.

I got one last night which made IT a Birthday Present to myself.
Seconds! I don't think last night lasted that long. Squeezed in using my work's T1 line. Cool! Never got close to getting one of the 1st Buffs. And an attempt to 'plant' my own ES9008 humbling and 'put me in my place.'
So Brian, seeing how one didn't have a real chance of selecting PS options and with the 3 weeks till May 11.
?A fair question: Can those of us that snagged only a DAC have a chance to add PS as at 'combination' price verses +$45/ ea?

Re: Microchip SW
I am working on the manual right now.
The new controller is an AVR ATiny85. I like them much better than the PIC.
The switches are not the same as the older buffalo.
For now, unless I change my mind, There are three switchable settings:
DPLL Bandwidth in 4 steps: lowest, med low, med high, highest
FIR Roll off (fast/slow)
IIR Bandwidth(Normal/50Khz)
Switching between SPDIF and PCM does not require a controller switch anymore. 🙂 Just switch the comparator switch on, and wire for SPDIF, or off and wire for PCM/DSD. Thats it!
Cheers!

Nice one Russ!
interesting choice of caps on there too, wish you or Brian would give us a hint how this new one compares against the older Buffalo + IVY 😉

I got one from the first run yesterday! I hit refresh a second before timer went out and hit the add to cart ... I rehearsed the mouse motions prior to!
Hi Russ and Brian,
Tried to get one, but was 1.32 seconds too late ;-)
Guess you will be busy building and distributing all the orders. Any idea when a next batch will be available? I would like to keep shipment of other products on hold until the Buffalo is available.
Cheers,
Matt

Russ and Brian, congratulations to your web shop design. Everything worked smoothly despite the very large number of calls your server had to handle during the first few seconds after the countdown.
One question:
Not sure I really understand what you mean. I'm assuming you tested a prototype board and I'm also assuming all boards of the first batch will be fully tested prior to shipment?

Mmm! I've missed the buffalo32 order. Anyway, what is the output impedance of this dac?
Cheers!

May I know if there is an indicative schedule for the next batch?
Is there anyone in France having a Buffalo32s, preferably in Lyon or Paris?
I made my own Sabre32 DAC and would like to compare it to the last Buffalo using the same ESS chip.
Thanks,
Nicolas

Nicolas, I don't think there is anyone in France or elsewhere in Europe with a 32S. Pre-orders will start shipping in two weeks or something.
