Post Subject: Berkeley dac 1 dig input?digital attenuation?Posted by mark on: 2/5/2008
i checked out this product from your link(thanks).for digital inputs they show aes,spdif,toslink and bada,which i understand is for use with the rr hrx 24/176?.also there is no clear indication that the attenuation is achieved in the digital domain.there are analog resistor ladder attenuator chips available and many dac/preamp mfgrs use them, i believe crystal semiconductors make them.but yes i too have experienced and own several placette attenuators and they perform this function better than any chip or other method i have experienced.very interested to hear what this dac does for you.i talked to mr.ritter about this product and he claims it is in the same league of performance as the pacific microsonics.probably worth a listen,hey these guys do have a pretty solid track record.one thing i was trying to ascertain but did not seem to get a clear answer was regarding the adaptive type filter ala mietner bidat etc.Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
