I don't see it that way, the opamp is so small that when he put a blob of paint on it for color coding it obscured the markings on the opamp. I got the kit second hand but I am pretty sure the original owner knew what he was getting from HiFlight.
That's cool. You're shooting for a 16V maximum, right?
^ I have no recommendations, unfortunately, but I feel for you! How sad! Makes me want to buy another one as a backup, but I'll give you a chance to find one, first.
You could write iBasso and ask them if they are equipped to do repairs, for a fee, out of warranty.
Sigh...
Got me another set of 634U buffers and used 100 ohms resistors for the wide bandwidth mode. To my ears this sounds better then stacking the 634P WB buffers on top of the 634U's.
Awesome! Oliver Twist asks, "Please sir, may I have some more current with my voltage sir?"
I color-code the opamps to prevent incorrect installation and for the owner to be able to tell them apart, as after soldering, it is often impossible to read the numbers on the opamp. I have had to replace too many opamps due to incorrect installation by the owner of the Topkit to send the opamps "uncoded".Dude is selling kits to head fiers and hiding the part #'s? Kinda lame...?
welp my PB2 is dead, I had an issue with a lot of noise on the Right Channel, any time I'd change the voulme I'd get some static. But my unit has always done that, I'd pop her open, remove and re seat everything, then it would be 100% silent for about a month... tonight I was listening, normal volume, lme 49990s dummy buffers with no issues.
Battery went dead, so I plugged it in, used the same charger and everything, and it was silent... couldn't hear the music while I charged it... couldn't hear anything but it was quite. Cut if off again, opened it up removed and reseated everything, including the little cable for the battery and now I get a LOT of loud Popping and noise when I plug anything into to it
plugged in and it's completely silent
any tips or suggestions? I tried different opAmps and still had an issue with the noise, Trying different buffers now
I swapped out the buffers and I can smell heat, as soon as I turn it on...
running back into my LME 49990s and Dummy Buffers everything smells normal, like metal
but what do you guys suggest I start with? As far as getting it repaired. It kinda went from 100% to zero in like a second
