Need to build a Linear Regulated 24v Power Supply
Why get a cheap and noisy switching power supply and then regulate it with the LM7824? Build the whole power supply straight yourself. Get this and a small toroidal transformer and put the whole thing in a nice enclosure. Done. If you want to be more into DIY the same eBay seller also sells...- Ocean7

Here is my Fred_fred 12AU7 SSMH. Sorry for the bad picture I need to take better ones in good light! That thing sounds great. I am most impressed if I say so myself.- Ocean7

Thanks. It works fine. No noise, no issue at all. I did not listen to it a lot yet but as far as I can tell it sounds very nice. It's the IRFI510 (Digikey IRFI510GPBF-ND). Same as an IRF510 but in an insulated package so no need to play with mica insulators :D- Ocean7

Starving Student PCB's
Hey Fred_fred, Just finished my build but I still need to put everything in an enclosure. Sounds sweet! Quick question : I am using the exact same heatsinks as the ones shown in the pictures but they get real hot. After 5 minutes it's impossible to touch them. I'm guessing this is normal? Any...- Ocean7

Post pics of your builds....
Lovely little beast Roberval! I did not try the 12AX7. Maybe one day. I have too many ongoing projects! May I ask about your amp? What's that big cover on top? Transformer and power supply? Also what are those two things (LEDs? Outputs?) in front of the switch?- Ocean7

Sure you need two tubes and that's what you get with a 12AU7 :cool: It's a dual triode tube so essentially two tubes in one. Cheers!- Ocean7

I just finished building the NP-100V12 by Rogers Gomez and I though I could share a few pics. That's an excellent little amp as far as I can tell. And it's even cheaper to build than the SSMH. Comments are more than welcome! ;)- Ocean7

There is no need to twist the wires imho. Cramped wires are not a problem neither. It's going to be easier to build all together if you use stranded wires.- Ocean7

Something went wrong? I really enjoy building P2P. It's like a challenging 3D puzzle and you can be very creative solving it.- Ocean7

Problem with CMOY, no sound coming!
Howdy, No offense and with all due respect that's quite a poor soldering job. You have shorts where they're not supposed to happen and on the other hand some of the leads are barely soldered. Not sure what kind of advice I can give you but I would start again from scratch and have a friend who...- Ocean7

Darkvoice 336i question
I am resurrecting this thread to give you an update guys. I shipped the amp by Express Mail back to China one week ago. Today upon arrival Alex at Jasmine refunded me for the amp and shipping from China. However when I said that he should also refund me for my shipping charges back to China...- Ocean7

Darkvoice 336i question
Maybe, I'll let you know how this goes. So far I am quite pi**ed off as you can imagine. Their quality control must be abysmal at best (the box was not damaged so I can only think my amp left China defective).- Ocean7

Darkvoice 336i question
Too bad you already ordered because I was going to advise you against it. I just received my 336i from jasmine_chine : dead on arrival. The front switch seems broken and the amp does not power up. Now I'll have to fight to get a refund for the amp and my shipping charges. Needless to say I have...- Ocean7

Darkvoice 336i & 336SE Tuberolling PartII
These drawers are awesome I am waiting for my DV 336i to show up, probably next Monday. In the meantime I have read each of the 100+ pages of the other tube rolling thread. My eyes were burning but plenty good advise there. That being said this long thread got me contaminated. I don't have...- Ocean7

Which Darkvoice for HD650?
Don't forget the 336i, from what I understand it's not very different from the current 336se and can be found for a good price at Jasmine's. Alexander at Jasmine offered me a discount on one without even me asking. I am expecting delivery this week (HD580 here).- Ocean7
