Fiio M25 request:
1. AK4191+AK4499EX audio chipset
2. Power source: double battery each for +12V and -12V for output stage (biased with low impedance tantalum-polymer caps battery). +12 and -12V should be equaled during discharge because will by supplied non-symmetrically from +-12 to +-8 during discharge. (Reason: no additional step-up converter). P.S. Also could be used unipolar 12V only due to p.5 principle.
3. Use totl and fast rail-to-rail op-amps for i/v, filter and buffer (ADA4898-2, OPA2156, Muses8920 etc). Do not use anemic datasheet copied OPA1612 for i/v. Consider capacity, load, psrr, cmrr compliance. (Reason: get attractive, non-ordinary and dynamic tuning). Try to short number of op-amps (i/v with filter, passive filter with fkp caps, output buffer hi-freq stabilising)
4. Do not use that hi-impedance and lo-performance combo: OPA926+TPA6120 combo for output. Be original! Use 2-in-parallel (8 in total) thermal-padded VSON version of BUF634A without adding of series resistors (you could find examples for parallel usage without series resistors from TI). Reason: get 500 mA output current in power-effective portable mode and low output impedance. (BW (dynamic) selection in addition to gain selection?)
5. Conduct that 4 independent L+L-R+R- circuits directly to balanced output (so ri-ro op-amps make rule). Should be ther summator to use 3.5 output? Not sure. I decided to do not use it since 2024 with my low-impedance AMT-IEM.
6. Use mechanic mute-relay instead of solid one (no distortions, less additional impedance, hi-load)
7. Mechanical logarythmic and highly symmetrical volume control? Will be bonus... (then should be ~3 stage gain-selection)
Will be it only my dream?
