Yes, and also be sure that you match the respective left and right channel resistors using your meter, and you'll be fine with the 1% metal films.

OK,

Today I ordered all the parts I need for this projekt! Hopefully everything will arrive befor the weekend so I can start build an the listen

Would anyone of you, who has the cross-1 build on a breadboard post some pictures here. Its my first real project and I thing this will help me and everybody else who is new in DIY to build it!

Thanks

Kim

Here you go, Cross-1 on a Rat Shack perf board. Not pretty, but it works great! Good Luck with your build.

Wow, that's a beast.. in a zoo.
Clean though

 

[Ballooshi]

Yeah, it will be nice to use the real Cross-1 PCB (Thanks Jan!) this time around, and get rid of all the spaghetti.

@Ballooshi
Thanks a lot for the pictures! Your Cross-1 lookes really nice!!!

Today I studied the shematic you postet and I got confuesed with the resistors!

Because the coulores on the picture differ from the partlist colores.

Whould you mind to have look on my shematic an tell me if the resistors are correctly placed!

Sorry for all this trouble, but I really want this thing to work!

Thanks a lot

Don't look at the colors - look at the numbers I placed around the perimeter of my crude perf board picture, then compare those with the numbers on the schematic to get the values of the components. 1=R1, 2=R2, C1=C1, J=Jumper, etc. My apologies that some of the Jumpers on the board are not labeled, but the unlabeled black lines are generally jumpers. The black dots are where you hook up wires from the switches and in / out jacks. Hope that helps you decipher it.

Jesus, they want jam on it! Perfectly understandable diagram and thanks for taking the time Ballooshi, even an idiot could understand how to put that together

Naw... it's his first build, gotta' cut him some slack. Helping out is what Head-Fi is all about.

We can rip him a new one on his second build!

My first was a CMOY, then the Cross-1, now here I am with the HA-1 and another Cross-1. It's a disease, eh?

I like Michigan and I don't have any disease

Nooo! I didn't mean "him" (whoever he is) I meant people in general. Yeh, helping out is what it's all about, done "plenty" of it over the years myself

Just a reminder that I will most likely have 4 cases available at the conclusion of the group buy, assuming we don't lose any or too many in the mail.

If you missed out on the group buy, it's not too late! PM me if any interest.

Edit: one of the left over cases is 5.3" long. It is possible that Ballooshi's configuration would fit in that box. The other 3 cases are only about 3.8" long, which may be be enough room to fit the board, switches and parts. In any event you would have to supply your own front and back panels, which could probably be fabricated easily from acrylic.

Regards,
Neil

I don't think Wolverines are immune to bird flu... or a case of Hawkeye whoop-ass either!!

 

[sphinxllama]

Oh, now I got it.

Shame on me, but I concentrated on the second picture because didnt know what all the numbers are for. Should think,look first and then write!

Thanks
