Post Subject: The Meitner's Museatex stuff.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 9/29/2007

I use to have IDAT-44 and IDAT-M (automobile version). I did not found them interesting, though they were not stock versions. Admittedly all Museatex stuff kind of “need work”, and even the stock Bidat was quite dead DAC.

It is still not know why the damn IDAT-based converters sounded so good. Theoretically it could be blamed the IDAT adaptive algorism the switches the processing architectures depends of the music speed. There are however much more advanced architecture then this, thought they not necessary sound right. So, looking at all of it I would blame in Bidat (that suppose to be Baby IDAT) the uniquely-successful output that somehow “clicked” with the given output filter – altogether producing very interesting and very non-annoying result.

BTW, I have a custom build Bidat with a custom MOSFET output stage, external PS and custom output filter stage. This custom output filter uses no capacitors – very interesting topology. If anyone wishes to have it I might let it go.

Rgs, Romy
