iPod Nano 3G,  DIY LOD, Pretty much a standard CMoy but with TLE railspliter, bigger caps all round and AD8620 all stuffed in a Pacman case.

That shall be reserved for the bass boost version!

 I just need to find some time to miniturize everything and make a new layout. Theres a second version of that case (I think it's Blinky) which looks just as bad***.

In short, a standard CMoy uses 2 resistors+2 capacitors in the power circuit, the TLE2426 railsplitter repalces the resistors and 1 of the capacitors. The AD8620 was an opamp that got alot of hype. I was curious and wanted to know what all the fuss was about.
 
Yep, you are right. That long thing sticking out on the right is the volume knob. That was the most suitable 10k pot I could find at the time, it hasn't bothered me enough to replace it.

AK SE100, Atlas Xeno IEM cable and Shure SE846 with Westone Star tips - overkill for the 6:21 train, but I love it.

Started a few years ago with an iPhone and A-Jays headphones, before trying a Fiio X3, then an AK Jr with Shure SE425s... before jumping to an AK70 with Shure SE535s, then an AK70 Mkii with the Atlas cable and now this. Dangerous hobby...

Beautiful rigs guys, but you are bumping an old thread. Please copy and paste to the latest thread for us to enjoy. This thread 200 pages. Latest thread 2000 pages.

The latest thread is here:

I shed a tear looking at these legacy rigs. It's like looking at kitty photos.

If lockdown is driving you crazy, there's some cool classic car audio setups here:

I’m thinking either H-Fi displaced a whole heaping amount of post or this is not the latest Rig Thread! Just sitting here enjoying my Shanny M2/Tomahawk combo and Titan 6’s, Manfred and the boys playing live in Budapest 1983 Absolutely superb.

Lol I hadn't noticed the date, I thought people were reviving old gear. I've had fun looking through this thread though. Put a smile on my face
