Thanks. I tried A.08, then moved to A.10 on a Mac. Can't tell any quality difference but I like the labelled input feature. Is there some issue with A.10 vs A.08 that caused you to say the latter is more stable?

I'm running A.10 on all three MDACs

I remember following the long running thread over on DIYA about the decapo 2 and being excited by the prospect of its development. It's thrilling to hear that the MDAC 2/3 will be streets ahead of that design, especially knowing we won't have to wait too much longer - relatively speaking !
Been in recent conversation with a fellow PFM'er and we have developed a method to Cascode MDAC2 L2 / L3 units up to 8 audio channels streamed (4 Casaded MDAC2's) over a single USB connection or "Stereo" Multi channel active crossover (which works with both USB and SPDIF inputs).
John, I really admire you & your approach.
Glutton for punishment springs to mind from time to time, but a nice warm lab & a few Czech beers seem to be the way forwards . . .
Keep up the good work, H.
Oh great
So many questions...
Which format will be used to transmit the data to the slave dacs?
I need a donor unit for each slave, right?

Does this mean the interface is limited to 24bit/192kHz? Well, given the currently available music, it's not exactly a limitation.Clock-locked SPDIF with embedded control commands.
Yes at the moment - at a later date (and as you know with me it will be much later then promised) we can make "Dumb" slave units - without front panels if we arrange a suitable chassis manufacturer.
I'm trying to make arrangements to meet the Project turntable manufacturer who are located as its so happens about 15km from us... but still no reply to my Email which is so typical for Czech Business... They have CNC machines etc.

I met with them a few years back but they where very difficult to deal with - maybe I'll have better luck this time.

Hmm, this could get expensive with my 4-way active speakers. On the other hand it might be quite worth it. The dark side is strong these days
