We run all of our Audigy SPDIF outputs through these DACS and the audio is unbelievable." Our design took second place in the Fla. State University DAC Shootout.

The LED changes from RED to GREEN, when adigital signal has been detected.The LED is the only indication that the unit is on since the signal to noise ratio of the PCM1794 addsabsolutely no audible noise to the processed signal. RM claims that the SN ratio can only be measuredusing special equipment and I would have to agree.
