Hi all, I'm taking the leap and attempting to build the external dual optic data link for Mscaler/TT2 designed by @Reactcore.
He's been very helpful with questions about components and sourcing and thought it might be a good idea for me to post, encouraging any others who might be tempted to have a go.
I've always appreciated optical links for digital, smoother and darker in my system. I currently use two Oyaide DR-510 cables between my Mscaler/TT2. Good sound, but brighter with more top end zing than I'm used to.
I'm just a keen amateur with limited electronics experience/knowledge, and this project is on the limit of what I'd attempt to build. It's only due to Reactcore's generosity in sharing his design schematics and pcb files that I'm comfortable enough to make the attempt. So thanks to him and here's hoping I don't blow anything up!
P.S. the parts are all here and I've just started to populate the pcb.
