Re: Variable HPF Kit

So I'm a bit of a newbie to this so I apologize if I sound way out of my depth here. I would love to make a stereo HPF and was wondering a few things before buying a few: 1) Is the 0V connection for the Sleeve of a T/S wire? I assume I'd connect both sleeves of the Input and Output wires? Yes both ...

Re: Printing modded EQ points on vintage Yamahas

I saw this PM2k on reverb recently and noticed the yellow labels applied to the modded eqs. Seems super clever. Before I sink some time into creating something like this, I thought I’d check to see if anyone already has a design they’re willing to share. @joe, it’d be amazing if the eq mod shipped ...

Re: MAC Rack kit Build Thread from October 2016 with slow attack led

Hello, Just curious what is the difference and over all sound quality with this stereo rack version vs two LA500A link together. Besides the obvious of not taking two slots up on my lunch box, which is a good reason for me, lol and its $80 bucks or so more that two la500a's. I know that this rack v...

Re: SUM8 Build Thread

Hey Joe, 1. Is it possible to achieve an inverted output on one stereo pair by removing and bypassing an IC and it's associated input resistor? Yes each summing stage has an invert stage to return it to same output phase. So if you bypass the invert stage you will be 180 degree out of phase. 2. Is ...

Re: POWER PLANT BUILD THREAD

Awesome, thanks Joe. Based on that I think I will do: Pin 1: Chassis Pin 2: 0v Pin 3: 24v Pin 4: 48v Seems like a plan. I always use 5 pin for power if multiple rails so I have power pins in the same place encase a power supply is swapped. A +V being a few volts higher or lower is usually not a pro...

Re: POWER PLANT BUILD THREAD

Hi! Just received (and built) a Power Plant 2. Super easy assembly, good instructions, and after trimming the regulators I'm getting a beautiful steady spot on 24/48v on the outputs. Beautiful. I plan to install this into an external enclosure to lower risk of noise/hum in whatever gear I end up po...

Re: Scorpion Tube power Supply Build Thread

Thank you for your input - I think you’re right regarding voltage sag and unregulated supplies. I will give this supply a try when I’ve got the time to open up this project. Thank you! Biggest thing is make sure you use the maths shown on the website to check the filament Watts and hv watts is tota...

Re: dINgO Pup kit BUILD THREAD

Thanks. Went with the 48V power pack and 24v zener diodes in the end. I've used 4mm ply board for the front/back panels of an enclosure (which houses the dingo pup), could I use a metal DC jack given no continuity to the remainder of the enclosure? Yes that would work as long as your 48v power supp...

Wow that is an amazing build. That is a lot in one box but the layout makes it roomy enough to work on :D 8)

Re: Scorpion Tube power Supply Build Thread

Thanks for the reply. Possible to change those zeners to 160V versions? Or add another 20V in series? You need to have some volts to regulate. So if you get 320v unreg (which will depend on the mains voltage where you are and the load on the hv rail) you could probably go to 310v by adding a 10v ze...

Re: PEQ500a with Twenty 5 twenty op amps

Hi folks Wondering if it’s possible to put the twenty 5 twenty op amps in the Peq500a. If so, how did it go? Happy results? The JLM99v opamps can be replaced with Twenty 5 Twenty opamps but it will remove a lot of the low end warmth due to the much faster and tighter tone of the Twenty 5 Twenty opa...
