Quote: I'd be weary as to whether or not the supplied image is accurate. All of the Denon UD-M30's destined for Australia come with Denon manufactured speakers, not the Mission speakers. The picture that they have is from the Denon International website. The speakers are Mission. I...

Hi artmusic247 Quote: I had the same problem. What I did was put shrinkwrap around the power jack Sounds like a great idea Over the weekend I managed to track down some insulated RCA sockets but was still scratching my head about the other sockets. Thanks again KrunchyK

Hi Everyone, I made a cmoy a few months ago and originally put it in a plastic case but on the weekend I found a nice metal case to put it in. The problem now is that I'm getting a ground loop since the RCAs and the power connector are not insulated. One solution I can think of is to...

Hi Ctn Quote: What about ME caps These are used in the power supply of my cmoy. ME as in ME amplifiers Unfortunately, I doubt that many of the guys in here have heard of ME and their components (being an Australian company ). From what I've read, Peter Stein (the owner/designer...

Hi Aos, Kewl ... I haven't seen that article yet (Stereophile costs an arm and leg in Aus ). But your right though, there are many variables that will affect the sound, I just have never heard people discuss latency in the context of audio cables. I usually subscribe to the "use my...

Hi CTN, I know that you are chasing short interconnects ... have you considered Tara Labs?? I know that they come in 0.6, 1 and 2m lenghts. They might prove to be the step up from the Jaycar stuff. Cya, Krunchy.

Quote: You don't really need the input cap. (The .1uf) I have removed these from all my amps with great results. Almost every source available today does not have DC in the output which is what this cap is for. The amp sounds better without it. Hi Dan, Forgive me for stating the...

Hi, To be honest I just followed Chu's article over at Headwize but added a pot for volume control. I built mine back around Christmas, so some of the details are a little fuzzy now The parts you need shouldn't be too hard to track down. The staff at Jaycar are usually quite helpful...

Their address is: Farnell Electronic Components Pty Ltd 72 Ferndell St. Chester Hill NSW 2162 Ph: 1300 361 005 I don't know how handy the location is to you though But I'd prolly give them a call before you drop in Cheers ps. as an aside, I managed to pick up everything...

I got mine from Farnell in Aus - Here. They took *forever* to find locally. From memory they were about $4.30 au each. Also Farnell have a mimimum purchase of $10 if you order by credit card. Hope this helps Krunchy.
