Hi,

>From a table somewhere on the site, we can see the following :

- SB3 -> Burr-Brown PCM1748 which is a 24-bit 96 KHz (max) converter
- SBR -> Wolfson WM8501 which is a 24-bit 192 KHz (max) converter

Now, at 44.1 KHz (CD type sampling), we get from the Datasheets :

Dynamic Range :
- PCM1748 - Min: 94 dB, Typical: 100 dB
- WM8501  - Min: 90 dB, Typical: 100 dB

I guess they are about the same quality, more or less, and the Wolfson
might be a bit more recent.  The interesting thing would be to know if
the SBR can do 192 KHz (which doesn't seem the case).

Datasheets are here :

- PCM1748 -->

- WM8501 --> http://www.datasheetsite.com/datasheet/WM8501

Cheers,

Ritchie
