indeed I think it would be a good money spinner for whichever third party organization takes this on. perhaps starting to call amps things like orchid, jasmine etc. although this could backfire and they may think there is an affair going on

no I think a separate delivery 30 minutes before of a bunch of roses would be a great cover

excellent! yeah be on the lookout for that

so excited now, it seems my amp has left hong kong (I love tracking that actually means something), with any luck I will receive it tomorrow. more likely on thursday though; but its looking good for a pre-Christmas delivery if my previous experiences with DHL are an indicator.

busy fighting fire in my office now. will give a quick listen later today.

Mine is still processing at the Hong Kong Hub??

Still got two days to get here so I'll keep my fingers crossed. Anyone lucky enough to have theirs, please post some early impressions to get the juices flowing hehe

Edit: That is of course providing you have caps?? Waiting for an e-mail back from Ryuzoh.....

 

[theory_87]

Yeah. Ryuzoh, can just send me the 2 UTSJ 10000uF/16V? I can source for the other cap myself.

 

[SpudHarris]

Must be a mix up somewhere.....

This is what I thought was included in both 1st and second batch:

OPAMP:
AD712JN
BUF 3 BUF634P in L, R, GNDch.
Caps:
2 Silmic2 47uF/25V (C3&C4),
2 MUSE-KZ 47uF/25V (C5&C6),
2 MUSE-FG 3300uF/16V (C1&C2).

No, yours will be shipped with caps.
But some PCBs which will be modded are unsoldered caps C1-C6.

 

[SpudHarris]

Won't be a issue for you later if I solder these up will it? I was hoping to enjoy it for a little while before getting you to Maxx it out

Hi,

To confirm, we would need the following for the BG-Maxxed.

4 of N 33uF/16V
2 of FK 47uF/16V
2 of STD 47uF/16V

what about the below? Is it supposed to replace any of the above caps?

(4 of NX Hi-Q 0.47uF/50V; just for preference and if you could obtain)

Thanks.

That's up to condition of the PCB.
If you would damage patterns on it, I can't assure to recover.

Completely correct, uvak.
And you have to send $125 for 2x 637s and 1x 634P, 4x 634Us, 2x 10000uF/16V UTSJs.

 

[qusp]

the optional ones you mention uvak are replacement bypass caps. these are the last step for BG mod, but I personally feel that a small film caps would be better here anyway

Hi Ryuzoh,

I am still confused.

So, the 4 pieces of NX Hi-Q 0.47uF/50V are supposed to replace 2 pieces of FK 47 uF/16V and 2 pieces of STD 47 uF/16V. And I will still need to buy 4 pieces of N 33uF/16V. Right?

It is 0.47 uF/50V and not 47 uF/50V. Right?

I am having problems finding the 4 pieces of N 33 uF/16V. Any ideas where I can get it?

Sorry for all the questions.

 

[qusp]

you were posting at the same time as me. those do not replace anything of the above. they are optional bypass caps; but I will be using something else here. mundorf MKP if they will fit, but otherwize i'm thinking even silver mica

No.
You need 2 FK 47uF/16V, 2 STD 47uF/16V, 4 33uF/16V at least.
4 NX Hi-Q 0.47uF/50V are additional, and not necessary.

You can buy Ns here below

WOW those BGs are expensive. I have four of the 100x2 500v WKZ series caps on my KGSS shown on that site.
