    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.)

    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...

    New ATH - M50

    Excellent.   Which fit better? DT250 pads or Shure 840 pads? Is there a quality difference?

    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...

    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...

    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...

    Millet Hybrid Construction Thread

    How would the 0.18uf/600V Solen polypropylene capacitors compare to the 0.10uF Wima MKP10 capacitors for C4L/R? I have a couple extras and they look like they could be squeezed in.

    Has anyone used the 470µF/100v ELNA ROB Capacitor for C7? How does it compare to Cerafine or Muzes for this purpose?

    Balanced Millet Hybrid

    n_maher, Sorry for the confusion. I already have a sufficient quanity of Millet-Hybrid boards and I thank you for that . Let me try to rephrase my quesiton. Is the intent to add on the "group buy" Millet-Hybrid board to make it balanced or make a completely new board?

    Balanced Millet Hybrid

    Would the balanced Millet-Hybrid require a new PCB board design or is the idea to add/modify the new Millet -Hybrid boards for the resent group buy. I would be interested in a balance Millet-Hybrid since I am currently planning on using an extra Millet-Hybrid board, for the resent group buy...

    klappar, Is the output jack of the switching variety? If so, you may want to check to make sure that it's wire correctly.

    The enclosure, I am thinking about using, has an internal height of 1.3". With a .25" standoff and the board thickness I have about .75" to 1" remaining. What is a good boutique caps for C7 with a low profile (.75" to 1")?
