// 1. Is each output phase/channel produced by a single 5534 recieving both phases of that channel from the dac. The other output phase is produced by the same but with the output phases of the dac chip reversed for input into the other opamp?
No, it is separate (one amp per phase per channel) from the DAC to the XLRs. Then a further active balun stage drives the RCAs from there. // 2. Given the bipolar input opamps, the outputs from the opamps are cap coupled? No, except for a 100R series resistance, the output comes straight off the op amps. // 3. Are to ouputs from the dac (inputs to the opamps) cap coupled or do they rely on common mode offset rejection? Those are cap coupled to 0v. -- seanadams ------------------------------------------------------------------------ seanadams's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27927 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
