inspired by some of the various mods being done to a close relative of the noodle dac I decided to go down the tranformer route.
I bought a pair of sowter (uk tranformers) for £7.99 off ebay (they are normally £54 each) and replaced the entire output stage of the dac with two tranformers and a couple of low pass filters (45khz).
How does it sound? natural, that slight glare from the lm4562 is gone, that occasional bass confusion of the opa2107 is gone. It just sounds natural!
