emelius Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 Phasure NOS1 DAC... I'm just trying to find more info on this...possibly from someone who has the means to own a 2900 euro DAC:)... seems to be a little more info elsewhere in the XXHighEnd forums...
Salt Peanuts Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 The chassis, or where the jacks would appear to be, is just asking for trouble.
tkam Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 Thats umm a "unique" design . Also warning if you click on that link in the first post, be prepared for the worst color scheme in history.

Dusty Chalk Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 I like the enclosure. Lots of heat dissipation, no? Short connector runs, yes?
emelius Posted January 27, 2011 Author Report Posted January 27, 2011 http://www.computeraudiophile.com/content/Phasure-NOS1-vs-Pacific-Microsonics-Model-Two - 100% Filterless Non Oversampling, using 8 x PCM1704U-K Burr Brown (Texas Instruments) multibit 24 bit D/A converter chips - Filtering to be applied in software - Output Impedance is 33 Ohm - The Clock section consists of replaceable oscillators, separately for the 44100 Hz and 48000 Hz base. The provided oscillators carry an overall jitter of better than 0.5ps and phase noise of better than 120dBc/Hz at 100Hz and better than 108dBc/Hz at 50Hz. Oscillators sit 12cm from DAC chips. - S/N ratio in-(audio)band is at –132dBFS at full scale (-0dBFS) differential (XLR) output. Out band (from off 31000Hz and up to 96000Hz which is the measureable limit) this is better than –144dB, and at the limit of the analyser operating at 24 bit and 192KHz. - Mains related products measure 17uVRMS at –121dBFS (measured at 50Hz mains) - SE (RCA) output measures in(-audio)band Unweighed 0.0018% THD+N at 16 or 24 bit input and a 1KHz test signal with a sample rate of 44100Hz and Arc Prediction filtered into 176400Hz. The THD+N from Differential (XLR) is beter than 0.0015% which is under the typical specs of the DAC chips. guess they have a return period, but i seem to have misplaced my five grand...
Dusty Chalk Posted January 27, 2011 Report Posted January 27, 2011 You drank it. That's okay, I'm not exactly Mr. Moneybags, myself.
