according to Juin. In short they both should be 100uf.
Try both values, the sound will differ, and choose the right for you.

Robert,
With the holiday here, I am just now getting to the transformer upgrade.
By the way, did you upgrade the RCA audio connectors to WBT? If so, can you help me with the correct WBT part number?

Lionel,
Loserica uses the best WBT solid silver (WBT-0210 Ag), they are expensive as mentioned, but you should hear more. (better transparancy)
I intend to purchase them in the nearest future.
I believe this is the R-core robeert1 and others have used, but they'd have to confirm. Ratings/specs are the same and the picture looks familiar:

I was wanting to upgrade my dac from HRT Stream 2+ so I picked up a Havana that should be coming in tomorrow.
In anticipation I ordered 2 "K" level dacs(PCM56P-K) from Arrow which is an authorized seller for TI(who bought burr brown).
My question is why were the MHDT folks saying this chip was discontinued in Jan of 2009 in a review?
seems its still in production and you can buy from authorized sellers like Arrow, Newar or Mouser.
Did they do it just so they could start putting in L or J chips in dacs?
But that said...

Totally agree again Joel, and great post.
Really, I can't see the point of asking again for the schematics of the Havana. When you buy a product you agree to company terms, which DOES NOT include the schematics for it.
There's a plethora of open designs: you can get one of them, modify it, upgrade it...but the Havana is NOT an open design. And they don't claim it either.
The Coke example is perfect: you can't blame them because they are using cheap ingredients or because they don't want to share them with you...that's just childish, sorry.
