Are you talking about New Year?

That should be drawing to a close.

Is there an Irish festival you are speaking about?

They said nothing about when they would ship.

Are you thinking balanced or push-pull?

Will be interesting to hear which is better - single ended into a gain stage or buffer or the push pull which should be able to drive what comes after. My assumption based upon nothing.

Would you think your IIS reclocking scheme useful with the SDTrans?

Wish I understood that!

I think I went with standard post for shipping.

AS far as I know mine have shipped.

I thought in Ireland you got a Customs bill even if you used the post office? I am making an assumption based on what happens in the UK. Figured it would be the same there.

Not that I care about such things but the polishing of the site does look good.

Did yours come with the brass standoffs? Glad to see they are not as tiny as I was worried they would be.

Any idea what the connector on the right side of the board is for?

yea it comes with the brass stand offs jumpers etc

sounds good seem like less noise, more separation or air
need an output stage
well worth pursuing
seems to accept everything up to 384khz too

maybe abrax has an idea for output stage?
