Audial Model S USB DAC
https://www.audialonline.com/model-s-usb
Async USB & stuff. Sim data / I2S. Goes 192 kHz asynchronous USB. Model S USB is the highest class USB D/A converter, the one able to provide real audiophile quality, and natural audio playback from PC. Apart from using asynchronous USB interface, it generally retains its elder S/PDIF Model S brother’s no compromise, state-of-the-art topology and solutions. Still, the Model S USB also brings several changes. Up to 192 kHz. Instead of commonly used I2S), for the ultimate jitter performance. In addition, t...

TDA1541A and Model S USB - 192 kHz? - Audial online topic
https://www.audialonline.com/online-topics/tda1541a-and-model-s-usb-part-1-192-khz
Async USB & stuff. Sim data / I2S. TDA1541A and Model S USB (part 1) – 192 kHz? Posted by Pedja Rogic. On Aug 15, 2011 in Model S and Model S USB. It looks like the Model S USB. Release and its specifications came as surprise in some circles. The major concern is apparently associated to the TDA1541A chip, so I believe I will do good if I address some of these issues publicly. Device. It means that it does not downsample. The Model S USB doesn’t perform any additional data conversions internally, a...

Audial Model A amplifier
https://www.audialonline.com/model-a
Async USB & stuff. Sim data / I2S. Smooth, clean and convincing. It takes some time to understand this simple fact about modern linear power amp chips design: the chip is not the limiting factor. It can be anything. The limit is design around it. And with this design, Audial Model A represents here today’s state of the art. It is tonally rich, and easy on ear. Precise and clean, and smooth. Dynamic and convincing. Three dimensional, with body and weight. Linear IC based stereo amplifier. One or two inputs.

Async USB & stuff. Sim data / I2S. Model A, one year later: Binding posts. Posted by Pedja Rogic. On Apr 6, 2015 in Model A. It is more than year since the Model A. Consequently, several small changes came during this time, and the most visible one is in its bindings posts. Fig 1: Silver plated binding posts. With washers made of Teflon, later replaced with polypropylene, for its better stiffness). Fig 2: Copper plated copper binding posts at the back plate of power amp version of the Model A.
