An order arrived from Mouser<\/a> today, which means that I was able to complete the AMB \u03b31 Modular Miniature DAC<\/a> that I’ve been building. Complete it’s a bit smaller than a standard business card and feels very solid. The board assembly slides forward and back ever so slightly in the case when inserting or removing the USB cable, but it’s nothing that’s a problem. (A\/B this photo<\/a> and this photo<\/a> to see the shift.)<\/p>\n

Tonight I’m using it connected it to to the Millett Hybrid Maxed that I built last year<\/a>, my most-favorite Sennheiser HD570 headphones<\/a>, and each of my computers, and this sounds darn good. Now I’m realizing just how low quality some of the audio recordings on my computer actually are, but better than that I can now\u2020<\/sup> listen to high quality audio at reasonable levels while Danielle sleeps in the next room. Yay!<\/p>\n

I’m really enjoying this.<\/p>\n

\u2020<\/sup> Yes, I realize that I could have just used the high quality line out in my Mac Pro<\/a> with the amp, but I’m also expecting to use this when at work or with computers with crap audio (eg: Dell D620<\/a>).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
