20 years after it ceased being manufactured, this is still my favourite HI-FI DAC.
As long as it is coupled to a good analogue output stage, it has a lovely smooth (natural, analogue like) sound.
The TDA1541A Single Crown is a selected higher performance version of the TDA1541A.
Although very rare, we do have a small number of genuine S1 chips available. For enquiries, please email enquiries@audiomaintenanceservices.com
The website Dutch Audio Classics has a wealth of information on this lovely DAC.
