Hi Ti,

I can't resists the idea of building a high-end DAC, so I start building a γ3 now.

I forgot to order the Zeta1 module, I have an Amanero module, intend to use it instead,
about the parts used for Zeta1 module, I should left all of them uninstalled like the picture, is it correct?

The optical has 3.3V and 5V version, I wonder the only difference is the supply voltage? the U8 don't need to be
installed if I choose the 3.3V version, right? It looks like U8 had been installed in your build.

While I believe the Amanero could be made to work with γ3, I recommend that you use a proper ζ1 instead. By not using ζ1 you’ll lose UAC1/UAC2 control and display capabilities, and possibly other issues that I haven’t thought of.

U8 is not installed in my build, and I used Toshiba TORX147PL 3.3V optical receivers.
