12s cable for perpetual tech. Dac


Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get an 12s cable for my dac p3a - p1a or if I could make one myself? If someone knows how to make one please give me detailed instructions. Thanks

Also is anyone still modifying these dacs? I live in Miami Fl and would like to know of anyone in my area that does mods.

Hi chess man , thanks for that response. Since you owned the p stack could you tell me if the p1a when receiving 48khz does the green light supposed to turn red and stay red? Also what dac did you replace it with. I think the perp dac and p3a work good for me since I mainly use it with my sonos which is said to have a lot of jitter . The p3a is supposed to get the jitter down before it goes to the dac.
Can anyone provide the docs for the two PT boxes? I seem to have lost mine.

Joehernandez509,

The P-3A is the DAC. The P-1A is a digital upconverter and re-clocker that did reduce jitter imposed by the SPDIF cable feeding it. Green/Red lights really depend on the exact function in question and unfortunately I do not have the instructions. As I recall there is a phase invert choice that can result in a red light. There is also a choice regarding having the P-1A upconvert or having the P-3A upconvert. If you choose direct the P-3A should end up with three green lights and a red light would indicate a failure to lock the signal. Really need the instructions because each button was multi-function.

I went to a BAT VK-5D SE CD player when I stopped using the dac.
This article will help a little, although it is not the operator's manual (which I recall was all of one or two pages).
