I have a Bricasti M3 right now, with a dedicated discrete DSD conversion section, which is sounding really, really good for me.

I tried RefleKtors to power Chronus clocks but prefered BiB, I use Mills 12w to set the current.

I looked at Bricasti, looks very good and expensive.

new Stick with proper mute circuitery has arrived.

Tomorrow i will solder and report.

then i think i can share all the details for whoever wants to build a pair.

I am really looking forward to hear all the details @gionag , I’d love to build a pair

Well,
a little late on my self-imposed schedule.

Sticks are assembled and tested inside and out.

They are running fine, simple and exceptional.

Now its time to take care of the docs...

Bricasti are an interesting Pro Audio company that don't necessarily take the
usual approach to design. The AD1955 DAC chips are an example of this.

Their M7 digital reverb unit is absolutely superb.
They are ex-Lexicon folk, Lexicon being basically the forefather of digital audio reverb / special effects.


Does the M3's use something like a discrete resistor pulse arrray DAC for
DSD? They might well also be 'pre conditioning' the DSD data stream before
it is sent to the DAC arrays.

@gionag : I cannot see it well in your pics, what is the oscillator solution you are playing with ? Is it something that you have also developed for the DSC ?. It looks super neat

... the stick's attaches to the McFifo / McDualXO combo from IanCanada.

on the DualXo i am using the adpater to mount the NDK SDA 45.xxx and 49.xxx

nothing fancy here
