    SPDIF--->USB

    Hi there, I am reading the thread and trying to understand it nevertheless I am not a specialist - just music lover or something. Still I am very interested in the topic because at the moment I feed my DAC from a media player via SPDIF /BNC/ considering this type as the best jitterless...

    The caps value depends very much on the rig - in my case Chris Venhaus recommended 3,3 uF for deeper bass and was right - you can try with some cheaper brand for a test.

    Hi there, I think Robert made a wrong try buying them CD players. My opinion is that ONLY DENON selection is good - the signs of the chips are green colored / K and J grade/. IMHO Regards, Ignat

    Quote: I fully agree with this. I have tried plenty of resistors in that range and for me the best choice /compromise/  is 181 ohms.Please note again it's quality is very important - should be extremely low noise one. Cheers Cheers

    Quote: But please do not forget you have to place a VERY good quality resistor for the I/V conversion there /in my case Z-foil bulk metal ultra low noise Texas/ Cheers

    Quote: The grade is marked after the chips are controlled /after production/. Obviously the grade will be marked by hand by a tampon - just think and do not worry . Cheers,

      Quote:   As a matter of fact that was suggested earlier by someone in this thread - I went further and after the good result with 100 uF Elna Silmic I have installed one Elna 47 uF in parallel /from the bottom of the first one/ - so altogether 147 uF and in my case the picture got...

    Quote: That's right and depends on the input impedance of next component in the system - preamp or whaever. In my case for example Chris VenHouse suggested 3,3 uF in order to get better /cleaner and deeper/ bass. Cheers,
