[SlimDevices: Radio] Improve Headphone Out Quality or Add TOSLINK

2011-03-18 Thread illusion8055

I know that generally a Touch, Transporter or SB2/3 is better for audio
out quality. That being said I have two SB3s and one SB Radio.

When I first purchased the SB Radio I wanted to use it as it's
designed. Since then my needs have changed and I wanted to know if
anybody else has tried or had any success in modifying the audio out
capabilities of the SB Radio.

I once soldered in an op-amp and got COAX digital out on my Dish 3100
receiver, so I presume it wouldn't be a big stretch to do something
similar with the SB Radio.

I was thinking to either modify the headphone out or just simply add
the coax connector on the back.

Any feedback/suggestions?

I know this is not what you are asking, but wouldn't it be easier to
just sell the Radio, and purchase a used SB3. The net cost would likely
be almost nothing. Or better yet, think about a TOUCH! Of course, it may
be that you get enjoyment from these sort of projects and that's good
too.  

Reminds me of a guy in my neighborhood in the 1970s that transplanted a
small-block Chevy V8 into his Chevy Vega. Possible yes. Cost effective?
No, considering his time. A good idea? Probably not.

How about a small headphone amp like a Fiio E5?
