So I have a topping G5 and am wondering what the output impedance of the non-amplified 1/8" jack is.
The 3 page product brief is available for the ES9068AS, but not the ~100 page datasheet which seems to be provided for most if not all of their other DACs...
A while back I looked at the 2 channel version of the ES9068AS, and (to my memory), output impedance was spec'd to be about 400 ohms. Recently I looked again and found a new DAC in their repository - 9069. It looks like an updated 9068AS. Its output impedance is listed to be 390 +-15% ohms.
Is it a pretty safe bet that the 8 channel 9068AS output impedance is about 400 ohms? If the G5 is set up differential/dual differential, how would this affect the 400 ohm output impedance (per channel, I'm assuming). Does anyone know how the G5 makes use of the 8 channels of the 9068AS? In my mind it'd be pretty odd to not use 6 of the 8 available channels to improve performance somehow, because if not, why not just buy the 2 channel version? Unless there was a firesale of the 8 channel versions... unlikely IMO with what happened with AKM
Aside: it's so odd the 9068AS only has a product brief available... what do engineers need to do - guess all the registers? Lmao
If there's some ndaa, why only for the 9068AS?
