Some while ago I've ordered such a kit via ebay from a chinese seller for 22 euro (shipping included). The smd components had been pre-soldered onto the pcb so stuffing was an easy thing. I only had to add, in my case 2, transformers for a 8 V and a dual 12V regulated supply. Furthermore I upgraded some elcos with panasonic fc's.
Now I'm very pleased with the sound of this 50 €dac!! The difference with my old swissonic usb interface is soo huge; especially spatiality. The swissonic sounds just flat...
I've choosen the CS4398 Kit because i read that it was the dac chip used in my lovely crane song avocet monitor controller.
Has anybody tried similar kit? If there is some interest i could post a link. Don't want to do any advertisement to offend anybody... ;-)
