Hey Dorkvader, Thanks. I must admit that since I was rebuilding the circuit from a previous amp thought to be completed (had blown a channel in my opamp) I had the case available. Or I'm just that good :-p Haha, just kidding. The helping hands really is a great tool. I got it for a few...

Hey Everybody, I just wanted to say thanks for everyones help. The new build went swimmingly. I put together this time lapse of the build: [/url][/IMG] (Click it to launch the video from my smugmug page) All the best! P.s. getting a 'helping hands' really helped a huge amount to get...

I gotcha. If/when I run out it will be the first on the list. Thanks Pars. I assumed lead free was good for the health and retained quality, but I see a warning on that label anyhow. Good to know. Thanks again

Hey, Thanks for staying on top of this for me. I greatly appreciate it. I am currently in the process of getting any parts that would be difficult to salvage from mouser. I am probably gonna get another board and redo it. I also got helping hands. I think not having something holding it...

Hi, Thank you for the replies. I recently got a chance to remove the potentiometer to see if it was the issue, also swapping the inout jack and the input wires. No luck with any of that. Could a capacitor be an issue? I have taken a picture. My soldering job is embarassing and was made...

Would it be odd if the chip was being burnt out to only kill one channel? Looking at the input soldering from the input to the potentiometer and then the board looks good. Would you recommend swapping out all the cable on the problematic line? I used the one working channel on the output and...

I'm hoping it is the amps that maybe were messed up? I know it is a weird situation, but if you have anything to check that I may have missed I would greatly appreciate it. In the mean time I await mouser.com's response to a possible exchange/return of the amp. I may pick up a cheap one at...

Thanks everybody. I gave the one I posted a try and I hear no difference between the battery power or DC. I guess seagate decided to build a higher quality ac-dc wart. Thanks to everybody for your help.

Ok, I now have the problem in both amps. I tested headphones and the male to male cable. This problem is driving me nuts. Do you think the amps are damaged? I made sure to use a socket. Thank you

Hi All, I recently built my second Cmoy amp and everything was fine. I slept woke up and now one channel is working. I have checked all my soldering joints, swapped the amp chip from my last Cmoy and replaced the right output wire. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions. The sound is...

Hey Everybody, Thank you all for your responses. I was plugging random cables in to see if any of the warts sitting in my drawer would fit. I came cross a power adapter for one of my seagate external hard drives. I have enclosed a picture below to show you and ask if that sounds ok? I prefer...

Hi, I recently decided to put a DC plug on my Cmoy amp. I was curious if I could use a plug from one of my other electronics? Any recommendations or suggestions would be great. I am looking to keep the price low in the same fashion the amp was. Thank you for any suggestions!

Thanks to you both, finally got it and it all works! Sweet satisfaction :-) Thanks again to you both.

Hi, I know this seems real basic and I have read many of the search results as well as the advice on the tangentsoft website. For the life of me I cannot understand what it is trying to say. I am trying to figure out Where to solder left, right, and ground for this component. Any help would...

Thank you for further info. Do you know if the MX55v's are the same as the mx75? I'm not a fan of the color scheme as much since it attracts attention (unfortunately, I like the colors but I live in an urban area :-() I am assuming the bump up in price is due to water resistance. If you know if...

*bump*

Oh :-\ maybe I shouldn't have returned them, maybe I will repurchase them. Thank you for the tip and if anyone has any more advice on these ear/headphones please let me know. Thank you

Hi all, I am a new poster here, but your information has proved most valuable. I use a pair of Audio Technica a700's for home usage and now I am looking for a portable pair of ear/headphones. I use my Creative Zen Vision:M 60gb mostly for an audio source on the go. I have been having a tough...

Oh, very good. Besides the battery not being replaceable which I like to sometimes have 2 batteries for those situations you wont be able to charge; the headphone port was my other concern. I think you have helped push me in its direction. Thank you.

How about the headphone port strength on the Zen Vision M? I have a zen micro and had to re-solder the headphone port to make sure it worked after the warranty expired. That makes me a bit nervous with going with creative.
