SCORE!!!!

Almost 2 years, I've finally managed to get a partner for my Fujitsu Ten 1T4SF. Won a bid in Yahoo Auction just a few minutes ago. It's 2nd hand used and fingers crossed that it'll work fine when it gets shipped to me later this week. It'll be a miracle if they're matched however at least I finally get a 2nd Fujitsu Ten 1T4SF.

 
Waohhhhh!!!!!  Congratulations!!!!   I wish I can find a pair someday...

  Hi everybody! sorry if this has been treated previously: I woud like to know if the TU-05 is a good match for 40 ohms IEM? (EarSonics Velvet).

I use UERM (35 ohm) with TU05 (Low Impedance setting) and AK240. I usually set the TU05 volume knob at around 9 o clock, and use the AK240 for volume adjustment. I prefer using the AK240 volume knob because it allows for much finer control compared to that on the amp.

Thank you Daveyston! order for a TU-05 is sent. What about the power? 40mW+40mW is not very much.
 
I will associate a detailed and neutral DAC like a Senoressence Herus. Such a marriage should give very good results. The USB cable is a Totaldac D1.

No prob KrissBill. Congrats on your order!! 
 
Not sure of the power. I've only used TU05 to drive UERM and Oppo PM1 so far, and not surprisingly, it was able to drive these 2 cans with ease. Haven't had a chance to use higher to drive cans with it so far. Sorry.

I have not noticed a difference between horizontal or vertical but I do hear a small and improved difference in using some isolation under the amp. I also prefer to listen with one tube plate in place. With both in place I find the sound shrinks a little in scale but you get better protection from electrical interference.

With both plates removed the sound is more open but if you have sensitive tubes they can pick up more electrical detritus.

Having one plate seems to my ears at least give the best of all worlds.

As for isolation made up some feet from cork and bluetac which works wonderfully.

Also, make sure you use a good quality ( though it does not hav veto be expensive, the best I have used so far is audio quest green) interconnect.

I bought TUR 05 sometime but only started using it recently. I love this amplifier with Audio Technica ATH-W3000ANV as I am truly a midranged kind of listener. I just love midrange fleshed up. Now waiting for the Exogal Comet  dac to arrive. Hopefully it works well with TUR-05.
 
However I need some assistance from fellow members. I want to purchase an in wall AC-DC adapter to charge this amplifier instead of using the car charger. I believe the voltage should be 12 volt but what about the ampere setting?
Hopefully someone can assist me....
 
Thanks and Happy Listening

I have TU-05  ( and TUR-06 also :).  
 
BE CAREFULL, I believe that the car charger supplied is not just a power supply, but a charger instead.  
 
Indeed, inside the TU-05 there is NO charging circuits, the plug is directly connected to the battery !! So, just a power supply will not do it and will damage the system !
 
attached picture inside my TU-05 with the XLR plug that I added...

Hi Ian
 
Thanks so much for the advice. In this case, I will have to get a wall adapter for the car charger instead.
This tends to be a little harder to find in Singapore.
 
Hopefully I can source one tomorrow.
Again thanks so much.

@AsianGuy38:
 
the output of the car charger is 8.4 volt. in fact the combination of the power supply + car charger is a CCCV (constant current / constant voltage) lithiium ion battery charger. the lithium ion batteries inside are two 18650 Lithium ion batteries.
 
when running the tu-05 needs about 240 mA, so any 8.4 volt Lithium ion battery charger with 8.4 volt output and a higher than 240mA constant current could be used, for the battery type inside the tu-05 something up to 800mA would be more practical.
