Hello Head-fi
A while back I started to assemble parts for this DAC. After some delays in getting parts, I lost interest in actually building it!
So for your consideration is a collection of parts to make a sweet TPA COD DAC.
All boards are "TPA" boards.
2*COD board PCM1794
2*IVY V2.0 boards (yes, the DAC was going to be dual mono)
Metronome board
OPUS WM8804 board
TOSlink module
2 power supplies (the digital one and the BPS)
custom 1RU 19" case with vent holes in the top and bottom. (cost about $100)
No BALSE is included as I was going to run this balanced out only, with some transformers I have sitting around for SE use. If you do choose to get a BALSE I must insist that you buy it from TPA even if you think you can build it as they have been friendly and helpful through this whole thing.
Please note that nothing is wired, and the boards are mounted for 1*IVY. you will need to drill about fifty holes in the case, and remount pretty much all of the boards to fit 2*IVY in the case. NO, the DAC will not run with 1*IVY. There are no jacks included aside from the toslink one. There are no transformers included.
Please PM me a reasonable offer.
Will trade for various 9" tonearms with cash to make up the difference.
I am willing to ship outside of the USA for this, however a service which is traceable to your door must be used at the expense of the buyer.
Sold!
