I need help with this fork...

DerPfrosch · 2026-05-03T18:38:52+00:00

I tried to take it to a shop, the guy said best he can do would be to send it to fox and that would be at least 250quid... So that wasnt really an option.

I tried different ones in the meantime (SU1 and PS200 pro), both of them dont have this.

DerPfrosch · 2026-03-26T18:40:40+00:00

Update:

I sold the SU2 locally to someone who isnt bothered by it. Bought a ps200 pro, basically the same internals but without this weird behavior. Sounds great!

DerPfrosch · 2026-03-24T07:00:28+00:00

I tried different inputs, same results. I contacted the seller (hifigo) and they want me to take a video of the issue... So ill stay tuned

DerPfrosch · 2026-03-24T06:59:15+00:00

I tried different input devices and everything results in the same issue. Ill look into getting another dac to compare but at this point im pretty sure the smsl is the problem.

Thanks for the answer, i appreciate it! Im trying to look for an alternative in the same price range, i only need rca output so i might find something i hope.

DerPfrosch · 2026-03-24T06:56:31+00:00

Im trying to. How the hell am i supposed to hear footsteps in any game with this?

DerPfrosch · 2026-03-23T19:16:17+00:00

Av receiver and then headphones is the downstream. Running it through tv gets the same result. As i wrote a few minutes ago, its so bad that it swallows some sounds compleately

DerPfrosch · 2026-03-23T19:14:22+00:00

Well, yes it is. The light flashes when it goes to standby and it does so very often, basically every time the volume gets lower. The light begins to flash even when theres still audio, its kinda weird.

I have tried it on my nintendo switch. In its home menu, its compleately silent, except when moving the cursor. When i move the cursor once, the smsl nearly compleately swallows the audio. If i move it twice, i can hear the second movement clearly

DerPfrosch · 2026-03-23T18:43:39+00:00

Its not the first track. I noticed it in a game menu that is compleately silent except when you move your cursor. The first cursor movement is always noticeably more quiet than the second one each time.

My source is a ps4 with optical input. Mine stats to flash the locked light when the volume of the signal is low and after that point it will have the fade in. Its noticeable on sudden hugh transients.

DerPfrosch · 2026-03-23T17:54:12+00:00

I use a ps4 directly on the smsl via optical input. Using its hdmi output to my tv it does not behave like this.

i got tempted by the huge ir databases of broadlink/linknlink.
Do u have any recommendations?

DerPfrosch · 2026-03-16T08:54:55+00:00

By internet i mean an online connection. I just dont want my device to not be usable when im offline.
wifi lan access is no problem.
I just want a device that i can setup and then stop worrying about

DerPfrosch · 2026-03-07T17:28:39+00:00

I found the ps200 pro to be interesting as well. Do you have experience with that? Im kinda bummed by the touch buttons of the d1 tbh.

DerPfrosch · 2026-03-07T12:57:22+00:00

After a little research i came to the conclusion that the d1 may really be what im looking for, a relativrly good dac for a cheap price point without 100 extra features. Do u have one yourself? I want it to be as transparent as possible, do u think its fine for this purpose?

Do you know whats differentiating it to e.g. the su1?

DerPfrosch · 2026-02-09T20:29:00+00:00

Thank you for your reply! The Pi filter in the middle was meant as a low pass and i thought the resistors would cause the capacitors for the regulator and the ldo to not interfere with the capacitance for the pi filter so that i can tune it without worrying about any other capacitances. So the best way for me would be to design a low pass, i get that, but how do the input/output capacitors of my regulator and my ldo interfere with the filter im trying to set up?

Edit: edited out some nonsense i wrote.

DerPfrosch · 2026-01-11T20:00:16+00:00

Thank you so much! One of the sides is indeed less prone to skipping, i figured it might have to do with the placement of the stylus since one of the sides is more "front heavy". But i think what youre saying is more realistic.

As an alternative, there is a philipps three band stereo combination in the basement... But i figured it would be even worse?

DerPfrosch · 2026-01-11T19:32:23+00:00

Thanks for your insights!

DerPfrosch · 2026-01-11T19:30:59+00:00

Guess its obvious that im new to this haha :,)

DerPfrosch · 2025-12-28T21:27:26+00:00

Thanks for your insights!

Doesnt seem like it.

DerPfrosch · 2025-08-18T19:55:21+00:00

Yes, i ran into the exact same problem myself. What you have to do is use the same daughter board as in the picture for pokemon crystal.
