Volume control: ad5543brmz + ada4627-1

7.4 to 5.5V converter is tps62150

Level translators for dac and riaa txs0102 txb0104

Front panel led controller pca9955b

Adg5543 was chosen for its bandwidth of 6.6MHz (low bandwidth means poor attenuation in middle range and up) and low resistance r2r network 5k

It's too cheap, can they put a diamond on it or something?

Huh! Never seen someone limiting the power range this way. They are stating where there distortion+noise is the lowest.

Hi, dont trust the website.

Some of the data is taken raw from the M2-PRO datasheet. The frontend is there fore not taken into account.

Line level signal bandwidth is reduced to~700KHz before the class D module. There are several low noise voltage regulators onboard for each stage.

I would suggest read the german reviews.

Take the worst measurement: Hifi and records.

But it still makes me sick to read the reviews!
