The power input on the DAC requires 1.5 amps AC.

Forgot to mention, it's 12 volts.

Designing power supplies is a cookbook process.

The transformer you linked to is vast overkill, but also inadequate. You
don't need a 6 amp transformer for a DAC. Even 1.0 amp might be overkill.

If you want to build a power supply that puts out 12 volts, you will
probably need a power transformer that puts out more than 12 volts. The
extra voltage will be taken up by losses, particularly in the regulator.

You must have missed the "AC" in the OPs post.
