Sure it does, just like when you were a horny young stud half tanked at the local at closing time, anything looked good.Cheers George 
Pioneer PD-S95 cd transport
Yes Roxy it has a dac in it.The PD-S95 in the linked pics, is not just a transport, as can be seen it has a dac inside with L&R rca's on the back, and this a Legato based dac section which I said is so so to listen to.Cheers George

Best DAC for pcm files
Do some read on how to convert PCM Bcgator, then you will understand why Multibit is the way to go and why many now are reverting back to it for PCM only conversion and giving DSD/sacd a miss. We really blew it with DVD-A and also it seems now DXD... 
Best DAC for pcm files

Will a 47uf 100 volt cap block 100 hertz
It all depends what load to ground (speaker impedance) this cap sees.A 47uf in series will have to see a load to ground after it of 30ohms to be -3db at 112hz.If the load is 15ohms to ground then it's -3db at 56hz.If the load to ground is 60ohms t...

Linear power supply for Arcam irdac
