No, not likely. I am testing it now, and have found a couple things Brian and I want to change about the PCB. It will likely be around the end of the year or January.

The good news is it will be better for the testing we have done. :)

Happy new year to you all at Twisted Pear Audio!

Russ, do you have new status on the new S/PDIF 4:1 MUX/Receiver?

Thank you,
Milton

Is there a another new S/PDIF 4:1 MUX/Receiver coming?? I thought the "4-Channel S/PDIF Level Converter and Selection Switch Kit" was it. And it is available in the shop, under "Buffalo DAC" not under "S/PDIF 4:1 MUX/Receiver".

They are different! S/PDIF 4:1 MUX/Receiver is for non-BIII.

The 4-channel S/PDIF Level Converter is just a level converter (consumer or AES to TTL). It is designed to work with the ES9018's internal MUX, which is controlled by the Switch Kit.

OK I see. It would be hard to use the one I mentioned with the older DAC's.
So many new TP products that I have lost track:)

I had a little setback on the proto I was working on, I think I killed the chip. :(

I also found I needed to correct some things on the PCB Brian and I found.

I th mean time we will do a small run of the old SPDIF MUX for people who need it.

I ordered one of these earlier this week and I would prefer to wait for the most recent version. Thanks!

These have not been available for several weeks now. I think you ordered something else?

[EDIT]: Okay, you ordered the 4-channel S/PDIF level converter. This is a different product all together. The Buffalo-III has an S/PDIF MUX built in, and the level converter simply converts consumer/AES-EBU signals to TTL-level S/PDIF for the internal MUX.
