[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 96736, member: 126"] Re: Follow up on Inuke 12000 release date I'm no Uli, but since he glossed over this question, I'll give you my $0.02. No, the analog glue circuitry immediately before and after A/D/A does not need to be very expensive, but it does need to be good or it will compromise all the design effort put into making the convertor path high integrity. The ugly secret about esoteric convertor companies is that to sound different, they need to do something different around their convertors, or they won't be different. When the path is dominated by an identical IC the main way to be different is to be inaccurate... YMMV. JR PS: I have no idea of Behringer's specific execution but such supporting circuitry design criteria have been addressed in convertor application notes, since the early days of digital. [edit] For example an A/D convertor with S/H at it's audio input needs to be driven from a robust low impedance source at HF. Again this doesn't need to be expensive, just correct. [/edit] [/QUOTE]
