In Reply to: )I think focusing on the analog stage after the DAC... posted by Allen Wright on May 3, 2006 at 06:42:51:
*** My experience across Upgrading over 10 different types of player is that this depends on the player in question ***I think the issue is "upgrading". If all you are doing is modifying someone else's platform, you will be constrained by the limitations of that platform. An example is substituting the clock with a low jitter version. The improvement is marginal compared to avoiding PLL in the circuit altogether. I want jitter in the picoseconds, not nanoseconds.
I went for the reverse approach: which is keep the DAC and analog stage generic, and take a different approach to presenting the signal to the DAC. I don't use a single component from any existing player design. Not even the case or remote control (but I used a spare remote control that was originally intended for something completely different).
I dare say if we combined our ideas we may get a much better player since our approaches are complementary - i focus on everything up to the DAC, and you focus on everything after.
