Now that looks pretty good. It uses a crystal DAC chip and Crystal ADC,
both with real limits. Asus rolled their own logic chip to glue it all
together.
On paper, that looks really good. Of course, you probably want to look
for some reviews.
Look at the noise floor on that board:

And that is for a loop (DAC through ADC), which is harder than real life.

Yeah, I found that CNET article, but it doesn't tell me much about IC
Ensemble. I'm in the valley, design analog, and never heard of them.
Here's the deal. When you make a chip, you publish specs. Now most of
these companies that make chips for the PC business publish electricals
for supply and interface, but well, the analog performance is just typical.
This is how Crystal (Cirrus) does a datasheet.

Wow, test data. Charts, graphs. Maybe it actually works.
i see the asus xonar d2 uses this chip, it is a bit expensive for me,
though.
however, i see the asus xonar d1 uses the cirrus cs5361 chip, and is a
more reasonable price.
any other thoughts?
