Reserve a seat first. Will see if the class schedule can be fit into my own one as there will be a long trip in the coming few months.
BTW, KK Sir, I also have a few questions to ask:
1) What are the sound differences among 1541, 1547, and 1955?
2) In last DAC course, there is one option with tube buffer. Can this tube buffer be constructed as a separate module to add to the coming 1541/1547/1955 so that I can easily switch it on/by-pass?
Thanks,

Hi sugargar,
The shopping site problem has been fixed
we do not need application form, just put the course in your shopping cart and checkout will be ok. You can then pay by bank in deposit or creditcard.
Featuring:
1. Full DALE resistor
2. Large cap pad size for easy upgrade to Black Gate capacitor
3. Absolute true balance config.
4. 2 X AD1955 DAC
5. Full LCD display input status.
Most of the device are SMD base, we can help you soldering if you need.
Due to alot of resisotr, transistor and diode are need to soldering, a careful and mid-advance DIY skill are needed.
Sound quality is a "very details", with a solid and highest channel seperation.
This board can also work on Un-balance mode, you can adding TUBE buffer to tune the sound taste like a tube taste.作者: kk_ho 時間: 2008-8-5 12:34
DAC 7 TDA1547: DAC No.2
Featuring:

Dear KK,
I just bank in deposit for the DAC course. I also would like to reserve the DAC1955PRO for integrating with the CDPRO2M which I enrolled earlier. So that my CD player has a concrete architect to start with.
I think AD1955 in balance architecture is the most appropriate platform for me. Closed to my current Meridian G08 CDP. Detail system architecture (like I2S clock derived from DAC and feed into CDPROs) will discuss with you later. This makes my project exciting.
Thanks in advance.

All of the 3 kinds of DAC have different character.
If I were you, making 3 of all la.
You may say I earn too much.............. NO.
You can join the most difficult / complex of AD1955 first.
After that, you can easy to make 1547 and 1541 at your home.
We can offer KIT to you. (special price only for AD1955 classmate)
Sure, you need to drill some holes (not more than 10) in HF before you take the KIT to home.
For drilling the alum case, you can mark the basic hole and do it at HF when you take the KIT.
I bought MG2.0 at early stage, $265.

I've listened to Meridian G08.2 in Central Hifi Galaxy. The New 8.2 has stunning details while maintains suitable bodyline texture of instrunments.

KK Sir, what kind of file format is supported by the usb input of 1955 DAC? Is APE support? If yes, I want to add it in my DAC. By the way, do you have any balance cable (finished) for sales?作者: sugargar 時間: 2008-9-6 01:22
KK sir,
I'm using Cambridge Audio 640C V2, can it support 11.2896MHz?
Sugargar作者: kk_ho 時間: 2008-9-6 02:06
You can trust the USB CODEC as a speaker.
The player is the PC, you need to install the SW which can playback the APE file.
All of the sound information will be pass through to USB codec.
When you plug the USB CODEC into the PC, your sound device (sound card / onboard sound) will be disable.
The USB codec will transform the USB audio steam into IIS signal.
11.2896MHz machine check list
http://www.lcaudio.com/index.php?page=39作者: sugargar 時間: 2008-9-6 07:11
KK Sir,
As my 640C player not on the support list, you mean I need to mod my CD player? and install the USB device which you've shown us yesterday into the 1955 DAC? to achieve" 用S/PDIF来连接 >> 转盘与解码器的时钟就要一致,这样才能同步"?
If the answer is yes, that means I need to attaned the CDP mod class later or I better build a HTPC to achieve "转盘与解码器的时钟就要一致"?
THanks !

Hi KK Sir,
Personally, I think the course is running a bit too fast. And the course material is not detailed enough. I just cannot absorb all the materials just seeing your Power Point flashing on the screen. It'd be better if you can do it a bit slower. Would you please email us the notes before the class or delivery the hardcopy to us during the class, and it will make life easier. Thanks.

KK Sir,
I'm building 1955 DAC and want to know the price of upgrading to Plan A with OPA797x4, OPA627x4,OPA2604x2, (4.7uf x 4pcs good capacitors around $500), USB module and without all other capacitors.
Thanks作者: kk_ho 時間: 2008-9-6 14:42
As my 640C player not on the support list, you mean I need to mod my CD player?
// It cannot solve the problem, if your CDP core frequency is not 11.28896MHz.
and install the USB device which you've shown us yesterday into the 1955 DAC?
// The PCM2706/7 is 256fs. so the IC can solve this issue.
to achieve" 用S/PDIF来连接 >> 转盘与解码器的时钟就要一致,这样才能同步"?
// AD1955 DAC KIT can support SPDIF. If the input is SPDIF format, no need to care the clock frequency in your CDP.
If the answer is yes, that means I need to attaned the CDP mod class later or I better build a HTPC to achieve "转盘与解码器的时钟就要一致"?
// SPDIF.作者: kk_ho 時間: 2008-9-6 15:00
Personally, I think the course is running a bit too fast.
// Yes, agree. I need to pack 3 DAC into a single class, also tell 3 kind of people for the circuit, up-grade. Therefore, I simple introduce 5 major basic block at very beginning which must have it in DAC.
DIR, Digital Filter, DAC, LPF and Output buffer.
I am believe I am teaching their function in the course. But some of the protocol definition such as IIS, Oversampling, filter characteristic is skip.
And the course material is not detailed enough. I just cannot absorb all the materials just seeing your Power Point flashing on the screen. It'd be better if you can do it a bit slower.
// Agree, but only 1 night (if pure 3 hour) is also cannot teach you everything for whole DAC. I can teach you only DIR parts at 3 hour. But believe most of the technical terms is hard to understand. I do this at last DAC course and CD modifcation class let make people sleeping. Also, I need to balance the level inside the class. I don't know all of 15 people in class, so a very simple block teaching is choose.
Would you please email us the notes before the class or delivery the hardcopy to us during the class, and it will make life easier. Thanks.
// I will have a single class (special class) at coming week (mon-Fri) nights.
Say 7:30pm-11:00pm only. Which teaching the theory only. And Q&A.
A pure DAC theory class for DAC class people.
, after that, I will cancel the teaching at other coming 3 course.
My original plan is :
Night 1 : Simple introduction, 3 type of DAC circuit analysis.
Day 2 : Function of each 5 block. Detail operation of TDA1541A, 47 DAC
Day 3 : Function of each 5 block (cont). Detail operation of AD1955 DAC
Day 4 : Advance modfication tips.
Please let me know what you want ? Also for the classmate.作者: kk_ho 時間: 2008-9-6 15:06

KK Sir,
Please reserve one USB module to me 1st, waiting admin reply on special quote.
I have a question about the voltage of cap on power filtering part in AD1955 which you have suggested on last night:
1) 4700-6800uf better use 35v+
2) 2200-4700uf better use 25v+
3) 2200uf better use 25v+
If I use blackgate STD cap on the above slot, the voltage of cap in blackgate STD cap stock list is only 16V, if I use the following STD cap on power filtering slot, 16V voltage enough?
1) 4700uf,16V x 2
2) 3300uf,16v x 3
3) 2200uf,16v x 1
In additon, if I use (Blackgate FK) 100uf,16V x 8 in the PCB slot, is 16V enough?
Need some advice
I want to join the (special class) at coming week (mon-Fri) nights, please let me know the exact date. In additon, I want to buy the digital meter $2xx which you shown us yesterday because my tiny meter seems not work, will pickup at the special class.
Thanks
Sugargar作者: kk_ho 時間: 2008-9-6 21:01
Sugargar and all,
Please contact Admin for USB module issue, we reserve by first deposit first serve.
1) 4700-6800uf better use 35v+ (Yes)
2) 2200-4700uf better use 25v+ (Yes)
3) 2200uf better use 25v+ (Yes)
If I use blackgate STD cap on the above slot, the voltage of cap in blackgate STD cap stock list is only 16V, if I use the following STD cap on power filtering slot, 16V voltage enough?
// SURE NOT ENOUGH. Don't use 16V rating, I will not test it unless you change to the voltage rating of the capacitor to recommended value.
1) 4700uf,16V x 2
2) 3300uf,16v x 3
3) 2200uf,16v x 1
In additon, if I use (Blackgate FK) 100uf,16V x 8 in the PCB slot, is 16V enough?
I want to join the (special class) at coming week (mon-Fri) nights,
// It should not be call special class, I put the coming 3 class early into this day. But I need to get a confirm by remain 14 person (total 15 person in class). If all of the classmate agree to have this arrangement, I am no problem.
I want to buy the digital meter $2xx which you shown us yesterday because my tiny meter seems not work, will pickup at the special class.

Hi KK Sir,
Good to know that there will be a special class for pure DAC Theory this week. I would like to learn more materials on the topology behind good DAC design instead of practical soldering and assembly skills. Please kindly inform me the time and date when it is fixed.
Regarding the teaching materials, I think it will be great if you can follow closely on the materials as listed inside the course outline. Maybe I am lost as no course notes will be delivered, it seems to me that the following parts have been skipped.
Regarding the 5 blocks you mentioned so far, DIR, Digital Filter, DAC, LPF and Output buffer. May I ask why we need a LPF? What make a good LPF? What is the purpose of an Output buffer? Why not output the signal directly to next stage?
