Made an offer on this place. Went to visit it and fell in love with it and it's in a great location. The kitchen is amazing - a cook's dream - the island is the size of a bed. High ceilings on each floor, quartz countertops, walnut cabinetry, Bertazzoni gas cooktop/oven, tons of storage, and a really great "gameroom" with a room deck off of it, to use as an office. Feeling excited and nervous! http://www.har.com/2640-westgate-st/sale_71844848

You are wellcome Yes, I use an Arduino. A friend had an idea and he designed the software and all adaptation work. Arduino is controlling soft-start, times, temperatures ... on my Carbon, Arduino controls the input selector too. If I have a problem with temps for example, Arduino cuts HV trafo current.

V20 ordered should have it early next week. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks!! Yes, big knob is volumen control and small is a input selector. All my Stax outlet are made with acrylic transparent material so I can use a led inside. With my universal PSU.

One note, it's a bad idea to twist the output wires on any electrostatic amp. This adds to the over all system capacitance which is bad.

How many pictures of Colin do you really need?

You should be having Red, Red wine.

Couldn't wait, and after waffling between the 6S and the 7, went with a 7 128G. Just getting stuff transferred over, think I am done. We'll see Thing is a shit ton faster than my old 4S...

Went to the (Marin) county Fair Met up with some Brits Drank overpriced usual Listened to UB40 Watched the fireworks Cool

Marin County Fair garlic fries, Kale and quinoa salad (well this is Marin) with Carne Adodova, Homestyle chicken enchilada

I heard both Aeon closed and prototype open today. The closed is really a nice sounding headphones beside its rather limited sense of soundstage. The open is still in a work in progress but is very promising.

Good luck with the offer!!!

Looks great! Good luck!

No, I've not opened it yet, I was going to wait until I heard back from Sandbag, but you're right, the first thing they're going to want is for me to open it and inspect it. Also, I was waiting until I cooled down -- I was livid yesterday.

Vinyl, special edition Remaster.

That's overrated. **BRENT**

Streaming Tidal at work with no WiFi. Many companies don't have open WiFi for employees, or wifi at all. **BRENT**

Don't think even my son can chew through 22GB a month on a phone, but we'll see.

Fixed that for you. And yep, agreed.

Do we have to listen to Jay Z?

I imagine there is fine print that says that data will be throttled after a certain amount. That's what I saw the last time AT&T offered me an unlimited plan.

i wouldn't trust them

You wanna circlotron? This is a circlotron... ... just where I live.

I never had troubles with the HV900's, and haven't had any that blew, so the following is based on what I've found useful troubleshooting/checking the regular Golden Reference HV. Often it can be helpful to work at lower voltages when trouble shooting. Paralleling the high resistor (is it 2x 450kohm in the HV900?) in the probe string to get the circuit in action at a lower output DC. If regulation doesn't work for some reason and things go bad it usually isn't really bad. Parallel the R8(2x 450k) with one ~100k (one across both) will provide some ~100VDC. Initial check: The CCS's Use a lab supply at some ~15-20V, through a DMM at mA: put the (+) at the drain (middle leg) of the 10m90, and the (-) at the bottom of the CSS where R2(100) and R1(4k5) meets ...you should get ~2mA ....if you see much more, try replace the DN2540. Do the same at the other CSS: (+) to drain (middle leg) at the 10m90, and (-) at the bottom (pin 6 at the voltage reference) ...you should get ~1.3mA ...if not the 10m90 is probably damaged. Check the current limiting CSS you added (your drawing) the same way (Kevin suggested 50mA for this) When powering up the supply, hold the variac when you reach some ~40-50VDC output, and check: the pin6 of lt1021 against "ground" (pin4) ....you should see 10V ...if not, the lt1021 has probably gone south Before raising the VARIAC further: Attach a DMM across the 2k at the bottom of the cascoded CSS ... you should see ~0V (when at ~50VDC output) and only before regulation kicks in, the voltage jumps to some ~4V; it happens just before you reach the desired output voltage Attach a DMM across the 3k at the source leg of the output CSS (right most leg) ...should be some steady ~4V

Happy Birthday Amp Man!
