That, to me, sounds like an absolute steal, given the high-level of

John,
Thanks for the status updates. Very exciting that this is getting closer
to HW.
John, I've been watching both the Community Squeezebox development and
the DAC you're doing for Bottlehead and weighing which would be better
for me. Since my main digital source is from a computer music player
And thanks for your response, JackOfAll.
One question I have about bit-perfect streams from the CSP... isn't the
intent of the device (Wandboard + CSPx) to use SOX resampling to
upsample the stream to 384 (or was it 352?) and bypass the digital
filter in the DAC chips? Doesn't this break bit-perf

Absolute phase of the recording is easily measured. Not all recordings
preserve absolute phase.

Q1 - Yes.
Q2 - It can be easily done in either the SW or the firmware. I'm not
sure where it could be most easily d
I didn't find that this was asked earlier, so if I missed it, apologies
for the duplicate.
What about being able to invert phase? I know the system will handle it
to provide the balanced output. Is it possible to have a selectable
'In-Phase / Reverse-Phase' option. I have that in my current compu
