Hi!
I'm in progress of building a new 8 ch DAC with:
- One Buffalo III board
- four Legato 3.1 boards
- one exaU2I USB-I2S interface
- Use the Buffalo III's integrated volumecontrol adding a sigle pot.
Questions:
- What will I need for power-supply?
- Will this be adequate to drive poweramps direct?
- My idea is for 6 ch to power amps an two for headphones (sennheiser hd 800)- OK setup?

In your case I would suggest LCBPS x 4. Using one for 2 legatos.
yes you can easily drive the power amps direct.
This will be an awesome setup.

Basically simplicity and current.
I would also strongly suggest IVY vs legato here, but this will depend on if your primary use will be SE or balanced.
