Sorry to drag you off topic, but what do you think of this ACSS current mode connection which they seem to be pushing.
Its really not for me as a "Competitor" to comment in much detail on 3rd party designs.
I can say that the FFT show a 16K FFT Noise floor of -110dB which is less then 16 Bit dynamic range...
Just like the *Chinglish used on their website (The term "Chinglish" is commonly applied to ungrammatical or nonsensical English in Chinese contexts) I see a Hot Pot of "nonsensical" circuit blocks with a very heavy influence from the DIYForum.
For example their "Strong diamond difference output stages" is your typical uninspiring classical Diamond buffer circuit that plasters the DIYforum that with even a mediocre effort can be nicely improved.
I fully expect their ACSS to display the same level of "Unique" engineering prowess - I suspect it shares much in common with designs by the "Buffalo" crowd, which is not a bad thing.
Ok, now I feel really bad
*I guess most times my English is not much better and I certainly cannot speak Chinese!
