Hi all geniuses


Would it be possible to mod the ODAC to accept AES/EBU input


I think there is a version with optical input as well as the standard usb input.


What im looking for is any info about how and where to connect xlr to the


ODAC and through which parts.

I don't know the ODAC, but must good receiver chips will take either unbalanced SPDIF or balanced AES inputs. Sometimes a transformer is needed, but often not. Look at the schematic to see how the input is currently handled and what the chip set is. The chipset datsheet may tell you exactly how to do it.

EDIT: Looks like it uses the SA9023 chip as a receiver. If that's a USB only chip, AES may not be easy to add to the DAC. Maybe find another board that use the PCM5102 if you like it.
