looks like order for 150 more boards are being ordered from the diyaudio group buy http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/group-buys/

Getting into speakers and have a questions regarding the best way to connect a Sub, which on my buy list.   I have Ascend Acoustics 340se for L/R.   Source is: Sony dvp-s7000 for CD transport > Coax Highly modified Zhoulo 2.5 Dac > 6 Channel Direct L/R connection Harmon Kardon AVR...

Quote: im planning on doing this, tried this on another build and removed hum from over exposed wire.

got a reply yesterday says very soon, looking for enclosures and pots atm

x2, cant wait but will, oh man another tube binge   Quote:

would love semi-kits, I remember in the past Jeff had a bom like order form which allowed patrons to choose various components along with the board.

is the EHHA sensitive to hum like b22 and requires encapsulated power supply? 

i got a box of hammond lopro 16 VAC @ 3A http://parts.digikey.com/1/parts/997967-transformer-lopro-16vct-3a-229d16.html   Can i use two of these? one for each board?

Been awhile since picking up the soldering iron and ready for another project. Put me down for a set of stereo boards.

im also using the Golds in my dac, very nice improvement from over default 5v regs in my zhoulo dac. The output caps can bring further improvements.

wasnt able to stay long but did go around the tables. I really digged the Sony cd3000 with AmanGeorge's nice looking amp and vvs_75?'s balanced beta. The cd3000 sound was more to my liking than the balanced HD800 which I tried to compared on the beta22 . Finally heard the koss esp950 &...

not encased yet

I also tried various c4 caps and settled on Mundorf Supreme Silver/Oil, highly recommended. Im looking at the possibility on using jung or shunt regs for power for one or all 24v, 12.6 & 6.3v. I tube toroid with three secondaries can supply all the power and also replace the switching heater...

probably noisy/bad tube. Got a 12BH7A Tung-Sol Black Plates and ECC82 Tungsram Hungary. I like the 12bh7a (running it 6v is pretty and fuzzy though it doesnt get loud) more then 6n6p but found the tungsram too bright for rs1. After modding my dac abit (upgrade bypass caps, star ground, power...

Did another little mod on the dac board. All the screws on the dac board are connected to ground through the case. Unscrewed and disconnected all connection to the case except to for one point. Soldered wires from each screw to one screw/ground connection, which I think creates a simple star...

im going through similar process with my dac (not a dac707). The dac is probably powered via wallwart, cheapest & fastest choice would be to get a linear wall wart if the existing is a switching supply. If you want more, then find out how many different voltages are created from the main...

Based on Aircondition's recommendation for the dac board, I replaced most of the 10uf with 128 Sal-RPM, replaced the 10uf & .1uf caps around the spdif with MKP 1837 0.1uf and the 100uf caps with 47uf blackgates nx; its quite a nice improvement. Highly recommend doing this. Even just replacing...

I like my vintage rs1 better, suits my music preferences vocals / jazz / ambient.

i tried both with the carrie; get the grub!

does this apply to senn parts??

are the 6922 the versions tested for noise etc..? Im currently looking for a tube to mate with RS1 and so far 6n6p is a good match; tubes I like with HF2 finding are not well suited with RS1, so the search begins. Going to try out a 12BH7A Tung-Sol Black Plate and the ECC82 Tungsram Hungary.

have pictures of diagram of your digital power mod? im trying to do mine on zhoulo 2.5c

using caliper Vintage B. RS1 = 39.5mm / 1.56"
