G'day,
after looking at the schematics of my NAD540 CDP I came to the conclusion it might be a good thing to build a whole new analogue output stage for it. I'm planning to go for a Naim-like approach (external PSU, connected via XLR though).
There are commercial solutions out there (Zapfilter, CD-OUT), but I haven't listened to either so I figured I could DIY something, as I won't know the outcome of this either.![Wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Any recommendations on the way to go? Would it be worthwhile to buy the CDX schematics and try cloning its output stage? Or are there sort of 'proven' designs that I should go for? Are there any 'obstacles' concerning the DAC (Burr Brown PCM1716) I should keep in mind?
Thanks for your comments,
Oliver
