Where to buy STEPS?
Is there any STEPS or YJPS boards out there in circulation or is there a replacement board. I would like to build power supply that fits in the 6.3 x 4.06 x 2.09 enclosure (Mouser P/N 546-1455N1601BLK.)- Jaypetermen

Sourcing Wallwart cases
Great setup for the Treads power supply. I am looking for a solution like this to power my Millett Hybrid. I ordered the treads a couple years ago, but I am now getting back around to using it. I do have a some question about your Treads build. -- Is this the case you used...- Jaypetermen

New ATH - M50
Anaxilus, Thank you for this feedback. It's encouraging to hear that the M50 may not be as thin sounding as the HFI-700s. How do they compare when it comes to fit/finish and comfortability. These two cans appear to have a very simular designs. However, I am having a hard time getting it...- Jaypetermen

New ATH - M50
I have been looking at getting a pair of ATH-M50 to replace a pair of Ultrasone HFI-700 that I have. Would this be a good idea? I have not been that impressed with the Ultrasone HFI-700 since I got them a few years back, to fill the "closed can" role. I have a pair of HD-650, which...- Jaypetermen

M-Audio Sonica Mod
I was looking for a portable UBS sound card/DAC for a laptop so I purchased a used Sonica. The Sonica has a very low output from the 1/8" jack, even when running the output through a portable cMoy. As is, the Sonica is useless for portable use, since the laptops onboard sound card has more...- Jaypetermen
