    A TREAD sized regulator - the r1

    Thanks! Tread was nice little board. There's always Ti's Sigma 25 and 26. Just came across the boards, I bought them just before I got sick.

    I have a couple of Ver. .28 boards. Would it be worthwhile trying to build one?

    Thanks for the great review. I just purchased an X5 refurb for an excellent price and your review helped a great deal with that!

    Having no other way to reach him other than a PM here on head-fi, I have been unable to contact him. I have not given up hope just yet though! So stay tuned and I will continue to try to contact him. He still would need to grant permission and share the gerbers...

    If you need to remove the chip, look into some chip quick.

    It is about as final as it will get is my assumption; Joneeboi would be the one to answer that. The last revision works well. The Grub DAC that is in it and the Mini^3 it is based on are still available so I don't think there is an issue with parts. Sooo... all we we would need is enough...

    If there were enough interest, say 50+ boards, and Joneeboi still has the files around, I think a group but would be cool. I wouldn't mind putting in the time and effort. Plus could use a few bords myself!

    Gamma-2 (γ2) DAC Thread

    I have happily used these with my Gamma 2: Passive = Lightspeed Attenuator Active/buffer = B1 And my favorite, the Bottlehead Crack OTL (it is for high impedance cans tho)   All of them are DIY the lightspeed and B1 are very doable and under $100.00

    Thanks!  I am embarrassed, I swear they said 0 stock when I checked this afternoon. It's a good thing I didn't place my order yet!
