Starlight Discrete DAC: more progress

 

I used a aluminium bar structure to hold both LL7903 transformers and the Russian PIO output capacitors. The LL7903 will be wired in 4:1 and the capacitor will prevent the DC current from the DAC to shunt to ground. Also used some silicon rubber to protect the mu-metal can of the LL7903:20140517-141633.jpg

 

Here are the DAC boards mounted on a PTFE board with a set of copper strips that will be used to solder 10 x 100μF SMD low ESR capacitors to improve decoupling of DC rails:
