I've used these Qable y-splitters and you're correct, it's slightly challenging to cross solder and fit all the cables into the plastic unit. So much so that I had to superglue it permanently shut... but it has lasted for 8+ years now and it's still my go-to cable.

Just popping my head back in! Nice builds guys, what's the new case styling in amps these days?

Session 9, slow movie from the start I expected it to pick up and get scary but it didn't. 5/10

I haven't posted in ages also! Here's a recent shoot with Steph Ly

Wow, I didn't check this thread in a while but it looks like something huge is brewing. As of today I'll be bringing: - Senn HD650 - AKG K701 - Cavalli Kan Kumisa III amp - Millett Hybrid MOSFET Maxed amp - SOHA amp - Alien DAC

Aug 1st is clear for me! I'm in!

I've been working on an upgrade to the SOCRAM switchbox and decided on a relay-based design. With a ton of JISBOS sitting around I decided to implement them into the switchbox! I call it the Chum I/O Buffered Switchbox. Here's the lowdown on the features: - Unbalanced 5 source connections...

Ferrari, that's HAWT. Good job man

That would be cool. A serious question: How do you get your DIY items on the airplanes and safely to the port-o-call?

I should be able to make Aug 1 if I'm not traveling at that time. Can't wait!!!

+1 for the ground loop breaker & pot grounding. Try those options first and let us know if you've got it solved.

Nice Stax! Great photos everyone

I'll be integrating the power supply into a PCB that I'm making. The Jaycars kit gives me an idea of the layout and such for the PSU part of it. More on the actual board purpose later...

Hey guys, I require a +/-15V and a +5V supply and I drafted a circuit but I need some sanity checks before I implement it. The power supply is similar to the SOHA/SOHAII supply except for the full wave rectifier (D5 & D6 in my schematic) is pointing in different directions compared to the SOHA...

Also, IIRC aren't the Vishay/Dale's rated higher than they're stated on the package? ie. a 1/4W Vishay/Dale RN can be placed in a 1/2W position with no worries.

I'm surprised that they use their bare hands (oily, dirty) to assemble the grid/cathode/anode. Cool vids

I have one built sitting on my desk and another bare PCB waiting to be built. I'll let you know if/when I sell the one I built already.

I can't wait to see more on this Tim!

...now for the dreaded case work Here she is naked Mundorf ZN bypassers for Blackgate Standards. I know many will disagree with that combo but it sounds very very nice with 12AE6A's (12FK6's sounded a lot better on the classic Millett)

Looking good Rui!
