sbgk replied to the thread GUSTARD DAC-R26 Balanced Decoder R2R+1Bit Dual Native Decoding Music Bridge.though you could say the txs and mains wires are kept separate from the sensitive inputs and circuits
-
sbgk replied to the thread GUSTARD DAC-R26 Balanced Decoder R2R+1Bit Dual Native Decoding Music Bridge.a fuse doesn't have 2 supply wires, that's just a connector if you zoom in, nothing in the manual about fuses, guess they don't want...

sbgk replied to the thread GUSTARD DAC-R26 Balanced Decoder R2R+1Bit Dual Native Decoding Music Bridge.the TEAC UD701N can't be any good because it doesn't have a fuse, how you going to upgrade it if it doesn't have a fuse.

sbgk replied to the thread Gustard U18.Just got a U18 and removed the IEC socket, fuse, voltage selector and optical out and soldered the tx secondary wires direct to the...

sbgk replied to the thread GUSTARD DAC-R26 Balanced Decoder R2R+1Bit Dual Native Decoding Music Bridge.here is the noisy voltage selector right next to the usb input inthe U18, trust the designer...

sbgk replied to the thread GUSTARD DAC-R26 Balanced Decoder R2R+1Bit Dual Native Decoding Music Bridge.removed the fuse, now protected by the 3A fuse in the mains plug (240V), has removed the thinness in the sound that was annoying me a...

sbgk reacted to sajunky's post in the thread GUSTARD DAC-R26 Balanced Decoder R2R+1Bit Dual Native Decoding Music Bridge with Like.Because smaler fuse can be blown during powering on. There is a large battery of capacitors that take temporary current many times...

sbgk replied to the thread GUSTARD DAC-R26 Balanced Decoder R2R+1Bit Dual Native Decoding Music Bridge.that is why slow blow fuses are used, but also means their effectiveness at protecting the electronics is lost, there should be a fuse...

sbgk replied to the thread GUSTARD DAC-R26 Balanced Decoder R2R+1Bit Dual Native Decoding Music Bridge.my 3.15A slowblow fuse is protected by the 3A fuse on the mains plug, wouldn't want to buy an expensive fuse and risk it blowing

sbgk replied to the thread GUSTARD DAC-R26 Balanced Decoder R2R+1Bit Dual Native Decoding Music Bridge.Further to my experimenting with the transformers I've good news and bad news. bad news is that the transformers are located too close...
-
sbgk replied to the thread GUSTARD DAC-R26 Balanced Decoder R2R+1Bit Dual Native Decoding Music Bridge.Ah, thanks, so might as well take the fuse out of the circuit and switch the system off if there's a threat of power surges like...
-
sbgk replied to the thread GUSTARD DAC-R26 Balanced Decoder R2R+1Bit Dual Native Decoding Music Bridge.don't understand the fuse requirment, power consumption is <30 W which means 0.125 amps at 240 V. The fuse specified is a slow blow 3.15...
-
sbgk replied to the thread GUSTARD DAC-R26 Balanced Decoder R2R+1Bit Dual Native Decoding Music Bridge.don't think there are DC cables. Have removed the IEC socket altogether, still have the fuse in circuit and think it's improved things...

sbgk replied to the thread GUSTARD DAC-R26 Balanced Decoder R2R+1Bit Dual Native Decoding Music Bridge.yes, there are vents at the top so have used 2 for the clear wires and the blue cable is earth which goes in the hole where the IEC...
