I can't tell you how it sounds yet, 'cos it's still ongoing. Hope that helps.

let us know when you get it made. So what pot you end up using?

Seems like a lot of money for a series attenuator.

Hi,

It's just an Alpha 5k mono, you can use anything .....

....... all the pot does is control the pic chip, there's no audio going through it.

The pot does (did) come with it.

Yep. Should have mentioned that.

ok cheers. It says they are out of stock on all models so i may have a wait if i decide to get one.

We are redesigning the Joshua Tree, and will post details on our site when things firm up. Adding a mute relay (0db to -64dB, then mute) and some other cool stuff.

Maybe by the end of May was the response I have gotten. I'm waiting until then to buy all the things I want all at once.

Quick question, can the Joshua Tree tap power (in 7.5VDC form) from the LCDPS used to power the Opus?

 

[BrianDonegan]

It can, but has (and will have) it's own power supply built in.
