If I may, please allow me to lean on your experience. Some of my questions may be obvious - but please be gentle, I'm a DIY rookie with only two builds under my belt (O2 & CTH) :-). I've acquired the following parts:
Buffalo II DAC & AVCC (later 100MH Clock version) Trident v 2 combo (3 regs) for Buffalo II LCDPS Dual Power Supply Legato v 3.1 Discrete Balanced I/V Stage. Placid v 2.1.2 Bipolar Shunt Regulated Power Supply. 15V+15V 30VA Toroid Power Transformer for Placid.
I've ordered a case that'll house all components tacked I believe. I've read the component/assembly docs, and still have a couple of gaps in my understanding:
1. What else do I need for stereo dac configuration with coax in and RCA out? 2. In addition to any electrical components I may be missing, I assume I'll need a wiring, a female IEC, two RCA (L/R) and a coax RCA (75ohm). What else am I missing/not considering?
Thanks in advance for your help. I'm excited to dive in, but want to be sure I understand the nits before I do.

You will need a transformer for the LCDPS and DAC; a 7-9V transformer will do it (we sell a 9V for this).
Don't forget a fuse holder and fuse. I prefer to get this built in tot he IEC connector, as it reduces the wiring.
Other than that, it seems you have everything you will need.

Thanks Brian. I'll order the IEC with a fuse built in. Do you take any stock in the higher end audiophile ones? I'll get my 9V transformer order in today.
