That's why he was asking where to find them...

In my case, I had them custom made. But for a quicker sollution (but not a perfect one) 
one can carefully drill out an IC socket.

Holy moly those look amazing! How long did it take you to make that?

FullCircle, if you happen to live anywhere nearby I wouldn't mind heading over and having you fit me for a pair of customs

 

[Avro_Arrow]

Yes, I'd love to get one of his creations too!

Man you truly are an artist!

Just finished up an AMB Sigma25 for +5v use. It sits alongside its big brother in my Hurricane power supply unit (very much a work in progress!) and is fed from a Sigma24. T'was a snap to put together and seems to do a good job of regulation when loaded.

What's this going to be powering?

The amp I'm building is a Dynamid - the two Dynalo boards run off the S22 while the S25 powers the Arduino, status LEDs, current and temperature sensors and an LCD (at the front of the enclosure above, not visible).
 
It was originally just going to be a Dynalo in a lunch box but, like all my projects, it's suffered from serious scope creep! With the custom backplane PCBs (as opposed to point->point wiring), AMB supplies and a Goldpoint attenuator I'm hoping it'll go toe-to-toe with the Headamp GS-X in terms of sound quality.
 
Here's a (poor quality, sorry!) picture of the whole shebang - the front panels are done but the inside and rear panels of the amp itself aren't fully assembled yet. Power supply is on the bottom, which is what the above photos show the inside of.

Several plies of 16 gauge steel to enclose a torroid and chokes. Top covers removed. (Not quite done with this, yet.)

Thanks Wizard for the tip on using IC Sockets for the female pin on the IEMs

 

[MrSlim]

That thing better have wheels when you are finished..

Nah. Just re-direct the magnetic fields to levitate it. Should work fine, but make sure that it's not
hovering over something you want to keep when you turn it off. Like your foot!

you guys are awesome!
