Need to move up to the more pricey ddcs as said above. I’ve been looking also. Gotta spend to get that at the moment.
Gustard A 26 I2S input
A lot of nice things being said about the Gustard A 26 DAC. Has anybody some knowledge of this gear, especially as regards its I2S input? My issue is:
1) I have an Oppo 105 disc player. This has an HDMI output that transmits CD, DSD and high resolution PCM (BluRay and DVD-A standards).
2) Gustard A 26 has an HDMI input, configured to I2S.
3) I fully understand that a simple HDMI cable between Oppo and Gustard would not work.
4) I am asking whether anybody knows/ can recommend, a digital-to-digital converter HDMI-I2S that would enable my Oppo to transmit to the Gustard??
5) I have seen on internet (EBay) that such items exist, but they all say that the I2S standard can change from company to company and product to product. Some say that their converter is compatible with PS Audio standard. Is Gustard A 26 the same?
In other words, can you inform me of a digital-to-digital HDMI-to-I2S converter that would function with the Gustard A26? Much appreciate any help.
