PDM 1.3 uses a single Philips' SAA7350 ('DAC7') bitream DAC/decoder.
Look at the PSU caps and any botched decoupling caps for the source fo the sizzle first.
Thanks Martin, looking...
Some very suspicious soldering on the DAC chip with lots of flux residue and what appears to be an aftermarket tant bead. It might not have its original tda1547 chip.
