inside the 1U rackmount style chassis is a cirrus 8-channel volume control chip (cs3318) and 2 arduino cpu's. one arduino powers the LCDuino (that I designed along with my partner, ti kan of AMB labs) and another provides a serial interface to the cs3318 chip. the system uses an learning IR remote as well as a remote webserver via any kind of linux box (rasp pi, mini-itx, anything).
the large wooden/plastic box, below, is ti kan's beta22 3-channel headphone amp, which I built several years ago and is the best reference amp that I own. I brought along some sennheiser hd650 phones to demo the system with. the DAC is also an AMB device, the gamma-2 that uses a wolfson dac chip along with some extra interface (remote control) circuitry that I designed. an arduino inside also powers the SPDIF meter (shows the samplerate on the incoming stream, 44, 48, 88, 96, 176, 192; one led for each S.R.)
I'm honored to have been mentioned in this year's stereophile online article.
