the Amp 1/2-kit showed up today along with some digikey parts. The chassis sure is looooooooong

Ah, toasty volume knob issues?

Read your welcome PM

That seems to be a common trend....

If they were the AU265's I'd have picked up another pair to use as rear surrounds...heheh

I'm not even in the running for a T2, yet I'm interested in the volume knob. Is that wrong?

That someone is Mary Schmich: Advice, like youth, probably just wasted on the young - chicagotribune.com Grats Duggeh, on having the courage to change your path when you were unsatisfied rather than just going with the flow. I don't think I could do that if I were in your shoes.

I think I spent a good hour or so on mouser's site before I gave up and pulled out the dead tree version. Pulled up the data sheet for the EOL'd version and went from page to page until I found one that had the same size/dimensions. Turns out that giant catalog is good for something after all Definite kudo's to Nate as well! Hopefully everything will show up in time for a weekend build then I can have an amp to run headphones with (currently ampless, heh)

I'll have to file that fact away for future reference, at this rate pretty soon I won't have to order from digikey anymore! I ordered the Panny's from Digikey since I had a couple items I needed to get from them anyways. Thanks dsavitsk and TomB for the great support, looking forward to building this loooooooong amp!

About the only thing item I couldn't find was the switch, I looked up the sizes and 108-1AD1T1710-EVX looked like had the same pin spacing so I went with that. Funny enough your mouser project email came in right after I clicked order

Yes it was definitely worthy of a LOL which I did infact do

I have to say I chuckled out loud at that one Nate.

As for the speaker it's currently an old Energy center channel but once I get the time I'll be building a ZA5.3c MTM Center channel to replace it; hopefully I can tint my cherry veneer to the reddish-orange color that my AU265's have.

You're correct

My curiosity about the GS/PS1000 was piqued after reading this thread, so I went over to headroom to check out the frequency chart. Holy shit, you folks weren't kidding about the hump in the bass and treble: Wow.

In case anyone was wondering, the deal doesn't include B-stock items; I called to ask and they said no. In other news I picked up an UPA-1.

Boot the system using UBCD and run Malwarebytes directly from there. The virus/malware can't block it if it's not running

I'm thinking of picking up an UPA-1 from Emotiva for center channel duties, the reviews seem decently positive. You can definitely switch off the blue lights and meters.

Wow, 10% + free shipping. That's not bad at all!

Haven't had any issues with my green drives...

Great, got my fingers crossed in hopes that there's an opening

Nowadays you have to go to Japan to find them and even then they're few and far between.

Unfortunately he's right

That's one expensive doorstop!

Talking about bandwidth makes me miss Japan
