Great! Thanks for all that tweaking and refining that you do and that benefits all H140/D10 owners!

(And thanks for the "Hi-Fi on the move"-thread that you started on misticriver, that got me to his forum and into buying a D10.)

sorry if this has already been mentioned but does anyone know the dac chip in the d10?

PCM2906, converts USB into a S/PDIF signal
CS8416, DA-receiver chip
WM8740, D/A chip

^^ Jam, nice pics. Looks like your H140 lost a screw there.

I was working on it so much I just have two in each end so I have faster and easier access. Now that I am done with the 120gb drive and all work I will most likely put them back in. :^)

Sorry...it was too easy.

BTW- Excellent pictures and great troubleshooting skills.

It seems that telling Joseph at Sys.concept to use "2.5cm center to center" will get you the shortest length of optical cable that will still work. It will be about 1cm shorter than the optical cable in the above image with the right angle adapters.

Which one do you think would have less stress on the optical cable?

I got my sysconcept cable for my H140/D10 combo today. It looks great, and is the first sysconcept cable I have without the metallic ends. I ordered a 4 cm c-to-c...but it seems to have a perfect "U" when bent to a 3 cm c-to-c.....which looks like a good fit looking at jamato's picture with the ruler.

I've been thinking about how to carry this arrangement around while going portable. I'm not a big fan of carrying equipment loose and prefer to have a small camera bag with a belt loop to slide everything into. The challenge with the D10 is that the optical input is on the back, which makes it near impossible to stand the components up. I had concluded that laying the H140 and D10 (while strapped together) on their side would be the way to go.

I found this camera bag:

Amazon.com: Lowepro Terraclime 50 Recycled Camera Bag (Black): Camera & Photo

It's still relatively small and light with a belt loop (shoulder strap is removable). It should allow everything to lay sidewise and allow room for the cables to stick out in both directions (since it's unusually wide for a small camera case).

I picked one up for $23 and will play with it...even though my D10 is still MIA.

I would just use an iRiver remote with everything in a camera bag then. I do have one of those old Headroom gear bags with the clear side to operate the controls through. I think they were discontinued.

If I wanna buy a PAP with D10 that has optical out. What's my best option?

cheers mate very much appreciated.

so going off the chips, wolfson particularly this thing is no slouch?

 

[denging]

i've just wondered how does the iRiver sound with D10 DAC without its amplification?

 

[Lamenthe]

Great pictures, makes me tempted to try one out. Can't wait to see comparisons.
