Need digital IC recommendations

Posted by bartc (A) on November 27, 2006 at 09:45:13

Just bought my first DAC, a Zhalou 2.5, and will open it over the holidays. Would like a decent but not overly expensive digital IC to use between my NAD 541i and the DAC.

First, does anyone know of a good FAQ on the factors/qualities of digital ICs?

Second, does anyone know of a shootout of DIY and commercial digital ICs?

Third, does anyone have a recommendation, particularly if it's possible to DIY it? Money IS an object!

Thanks.
