Zoran DAC: current or voltage output?

I don't know whether the Zoran Vaddis 882 processor chip in my Toshiba SD-3990 outputs current or voltage for its analog audio output. I would like to implement the Swenson mod for this player. See these links for more info on this mod:

The IEEE Spectrum article seems to suggest that if the DAC outputs current, one would not be able to do this mod. Is this true? If not, what's a way around the current-output obstacle?

Someone at head-fi.org said that it, in fact, would be preferable to have this DAC feature current output. (see: http://www6.head-fi.org/forums/show...43&postcount=1)

BTW, as noted in (http://www6.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.php?t=204659), neither Zoran nor Toshiba provide literature/service manuals for the processor or DVD player.

Thx for any info you can provide.
