Is there any news on the mdac2? when would it be available?
I'm currently working on the PCB design... I cannot say how long - but first PCB's in say 60 days...

Beamup,
Software's getting more stable now and getting to grips with the thermal issues via software and hardware changes (chassis & Heatsink).
Out of the original 7 beta units, 3 are in the field - if your Ok to operate yours without the chassis (until they are ready) then I can ship your PCB + PSU. You can simply slide the PCB into the Chassis once they are available.
Christmas, though no year yet specified.

On the DD2A will the volume control vary the digital output volume? (I'm considering managing my subs with a miniDSP 2x4 HD unit and using the digital output from the DD2A to feed the miniDSP. However that won't work unless the volume control also varies the volume coming out of the miniDSP)
OK, well the other option is to use Y cables from the XLR outputs of the DD2A. I could then just feed one sub direct from the DD2A and daisy chain to the second. Alternatively I could use the analog inputs of the miniDSP 2x4HD.Ian,
The there is no digital signal manipulation, level control is performed in the Analogue domain - you might need 2x DD2A....

I am curious how you get to the conclusion that it could work as a surround processor?That’s good News! Could i use the new mdac2 as a surround processor like the 8000AP or 8200AP if i connect a blu-ray player or a nuc with kodi? I really liked the audiolab 8000ap , it was also a very good stereo preamp.
I now have 2 hifi sets
1. Marantz sr7008 with klipsch reference première series
2. Naim superuniti with harbeth monitor 30.1
I am thinking of what i should do with the mdac2, maybe it could replace the marantz sr7008.
I'm waiting for the final price with packaging - but around GBP120 + shipping to Europe.
we will be no longer working with ProJect so this will be a "Clean up our room" before we turn the lights out type deal... ProJect has never offered to pay us
