Yesterday: lots of lamb Today: sweetbreads and pumpkin risotto

Working on casing the power supply now. The first two images are renders from Fusion 360 (love this program for CAD/CAM)... I got the transformers from Richard at SumR. I added a winding to the LV transformer for the +5V I use for the control circuit/relay as well as the Arduino and digital relay. I also removed a winding on one of the HV transformers since it's not used and adjusted some voltages. Just finished testing them in the new setup and so far so good. I've still got to test everything under load before reconnecting to the amp. The face plate is a temporary while I mill the final one.

The effort level San Jose put into the third period spoke volumes. Especially trapping possession below St Louis' blue line to score that first empty netter. Take it home and finish it, Sharks!

Exactly!! The ears are a sucky measurement tool but do some things really well.

Rather take them with a hefty grain of salt. The 207 and 507 sound nothing alike so something is rotten. There seems to be this movement now that measurements are king but they only tell part of the picture. Do amps sound the same based on THD, frequency response and noise? No!!

Happy Birthday!

Thanks everyone! I started out the day with a sick kid (1am-3am) then a 4 hour nap, then frustrating day at work. Then I wound up going out for nachos and margaritas with 2 friends. They were on opposite ends of political and ideological spectrums, with quit an age gap. I just sat back in the chair and watched them debate for a long time. Had a blast, then my young fiend and I went out for a night cap. Now? Off to bed early to try to make up for that whole 4 hours of sleep thing earlier. thanks guys, <3. **BRENT**

Great job putting everything together in such a tight space. Looking forward to seeing the finished amp.

This is a wild game! First team to score has won every game in this series and Sharks drew first blood so here's to hoping for consistency!

Happy Birthday Brent! Hope it's a slightly better than average day.

He would get my vote, assuming he could produce a valid birth certificate.

A proper Hawks fan will never root for St Louis... order of preference for the cup is San Jose >> Tampa Bay >>>>>>> Pittsburgh >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> St Louis. I am ridiculously impressed by Tampa. If they can pull this off, it will be the best overall series win of these playoffs. Kucherov is quickly becoming one of my favorite non-Chicago players... he has been clutch numerous times when Tampa looked to be on the brink. Let's follow suit, San Jose!

Why would you do that when you could waste your time testing the diodes by measuring the resistance!

Listening to this, which was released 20 years ago yesterday. Feel oldish.

Well done jose. I was going to post these images in the builds thread but it’s missing in action. Thanks to Kevin and Birgir for being awesome. Thanks to Michael (mw168) for all the work you’ve put in with the group buys and documenting etc it’s been very helpful. A couple KGSSHV Carbon amps running 400V @ 20ma, GRLV supplies, SUMR transformers.
