Not quite... Maybe it's just that no one could answer you back for your comments? Lol

You may be on to something.

You haven't found a place for the Essence yet?
Why not ask someone to buy it and ship it to you?

I'm using either my iPhone or iPad mini to correspond in here.... How to get these emoticon mobile mode?

Hmm.... Can I entrust you in helping me to get the muses E1 then? :)

I was going to do that for Turok, but he was able to get it somewhere on ebay.
 
You should try the same place first, until asking me.
I'm the final destination.

I already tried searching everywhere online.... eBay is too expensive and it's US based so shipping charges and declaration for my custom tax still applies.

Never mind - I'm just asking in a lighthearted manner. Didn't expect to trouble you on this either Tim.

Didn't think my words were harsh, must have been read differently on your side.

I wish I had your "Know how".
Your Asus Maximus IV, is becoming nicer and nicer.

Should be fairly simple since you know Computer Skills.
 
You probably have a lot of skills in mounting heat-sinks for your computer.
Same process here. Put thermal paste, slap them on.
 
The silver plated wire is only there to hold the heat-sinks down so that micro-gaps are limited.
Also, benefit of using the SP wire, is there won't be as bad oxidation as copper.

The Muses is about 2 days away (and If the customs decide to help).

That's Great News!
 
Would love to hear your impressions.
Let's see whether or not our opinions are in sync.

Tim, I really hope so.
I favored the Muses for the Compass2 from Audio-gd , and I hope I made the right decision....

While you are playing with the power supply you could swap the -12v voltage regulator for one with more ripple rejection like the lm317

Swap the National -12 P+ LM2990T (JM13ABE3) for the LM317?
 
There's is three overall
 
Left Side: 
National JM13ABE3  LM2990T  -12 P+
 
Right Side:
National PM13AFE3  LM2940CT -12 p+
National PM14ABE3  LM294OCT -5.0 p+
 
Let me know which ones are the best, and i'll put them in.
 
Tim
