The fellow I was getting them from was told by A123 they will no longer supply to him.

Was paying nine dollars each in quantities of six or ten, cannot remember.

Now I have to pay sixteen but that is with tabs attached, which is convenient.

What is the German source charging?

Sad news , Nige. You have put the fear of God into anyone thinking of tinkering (that means you Tony).

yea a 370.40 euro mistake

pity it was starting to sound proper good too
it could have held its own easily in the company of the 3000+ euro dac category

at this rate of going getting a 3000 euro dac might be cheaper

back to the pcm1794 till i lick my wounds, regroup, rethink and gather replacement parts

don't worry tony modding isnt usually this cruel

the board might be repairable by replacing some of the chips (long shot)but not in the short term
ill have to get a replacement
