File formats are based on integer multiples of 44.1 and 48K. Furthermore micro controllers typically run in at least the megahertz range. How does the "OS" transition from idle state (nothing playing), to let's say 44.1K or then when playing 96K, to 96K. So they are saying the OS can do 44100 instructions per second when doing redbook, and per definition, the clock rate of the CPU changes with the samplerate of the input file? Also filesystems and SD cards have buffers, and to read even a single byte from a file, you need to read a block. So you will always end up using some form of buffering. Even redbook transports have buffering, although very small.https://superuser.com/questions/662371/do-sd-cards-use-a-buffer-or-cache Its marketing stuff... Eye candy it may be but 91K for a CD player with SPDIF out!!!!! 4est and Ralf11 2 Link to comment
marce Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 It does remind me of a George Foreman Grill: https://direct.asda.com/George-Foreman-18471-Family-4-Portion-Black-Grill/001587094,default,pd.html?cmpid=ppc-_-george-_-ggle-pla-_-OD16HOME_GARDEN-_--_-dskwid-s92700042945749184_dc&gclid=CjwKCAjw1f_pBRAEEiwApp0JKIDBVBwm10XLekmVH3kOggyxxpaJORCAfOVq5aDiNIt0MyQJTbOogxoCcw0QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds Any pictures of the insides.... That would be interesting and show what your money gets you, apart from some machined plywood. Ralf11 1 Link to comment
marce Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Got to admit the PCB's mounted on unfinished (hygroscopic) plywood is a good idea (shown in the 6 Moons link above) in the DAC. Looking at the 3D model of the card reader, not much room inside so you'll get a probably get a FPGA based card... It's definitely boutique gear for I suspect the lowest MTBF figures would be for the card socket. people with lots of money and lots of time to load up cards with music to play! I suspect the lowest MTBF figures would be for the card socket... Link to comment
marce Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 boutique products, the price often has no relationship to the selling price... All helps promote GUTB's view of audio😀 Ralf11 1 Link to comment
