never listened to a yggy, so I have no comments other than it does not do DSD, 25% of my collection is DSD, and there are a number of products out now that outperform the yggy at a fraction of the price. The $350 audio god for example The joutenheim really is a piece of overheating poorly sounding shit.

last year was really bad for tomatoes. This year however they are coming out of my ears picture was about 2 weeks ago, now they are coming in faster than we can eat them

Unlikely, they would have to be much bigger heatsinks, the output tubes are probably good for 9 watts total each

does not look regulated to me. at least not the high voltage, just a diode bridge and a pair of caps low voltage looks like 3 terminal regulators

Not enough voltage gain that way

There is only one pair of coupling caps, so it pretty much has to be Srx or Srx like so the caps are 400v, so voltages roughly the same as t8000

Pm sent its an 8 speed and I am told the shimono handles are a direct replacement once you deal with the cable stops the down tube is 1.75 inches so other solutions will not work the torr seal seems to be holding for now

the torr seal is holding for now, hopefully the parts coming in are usable. But if you can find someone with the original parts new or used or even broken I will be able to remanufacture with the threaded rod. Very surprised at the idiot that designed this, way too much stress on a 5mm threaded rod with 75th side walls may even switch to brake handle actuators and then recreate the stops for the cables kind of like this idea http://www.ebay.com/itm/MOOSE-RACING-One-Sided-Made-to-Order-37-57mm-Clamp-On-Downtube-Shifters-Adapter/152651747057?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D41376%26meid%3Dd588e1824d874fb78025ab745f3baefc%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D3%26sd%3D152651737182&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851

shifter boss assembly is broken, the threaded rod has the remains of the attachment for the right side. sent an email to kozy, nothing back yet. also ordered thread repair kit with m5 inserts, and 1 meter long 5mm threaded rod. first kind of epoxy pulled out in a minute, trying torr-seal now. the way it worked was that the rod was attached to the one end with thread lock and then the other end, you can tighten down and then the black piece holds it all in place. then the shifters are attached with bolts on each side.

well they are more annoyed by birgir's comments. i'm slightly more politically correct. (when I wanna be)

that is what I bought, should be here tomorrow, really don't like that you have to epoxy everything together. The cannondale part number is A095 Kit, Shift Boss, 1.75 inch diameter tube, listed as obsolete please pm the seller and see if he will sell just the whole shifter set

next time he visits it has to be in the summer, need to put the top down, there are still marks found a generic repair kit that may or may not actually fit the down tube. instructions say to epoxy all parts of it together to the tube, who knows, its a cheap thing

nope, 5 feet 2 inches (on a good day)

yes please. stupid ass cheap parts 1.75 inch diameter down tube

anyone know of a place that sells vintage shimano parts, the shifter just cracked off the 24 year old cannondale tube shimano 105sc sl 1056 with bolt thru the tube (or recommendations for a new bike in the $2k to $3k range because anything i'm likely to do is going to be a hack job)

who made the thing, and inside pictures please. likely the thermal fuse inside the transformer went open, may be able to short it out.

my opinion is that it is very close to a 717. definitely sounds different from a 727.

new division. *schiit

maybe there are 2 other caps hiding in there. pretty much have to be. max gain for a 6sn7 is 20 and max gain for a 6sl7 is 70, so 1400 would be max voltage gain at 6% distortion. cut it down to a gain of 500 and you are still at 2% distortion. with no feedback frequency response is going to be much worse at 20khz, like 6db. the resistor current sources make it worse. stupidly poor design that seems typical of schiit. kind of wonder that if they ever did make something really nice, people would notice.

there is only one coupling cap per channel, so the circuit may be slightly different than shown. plate resistors instead of cascade current source is pretty lame these days. Completely open loop with no feedback is the result of not enough overall gain, and this is going to make the thing highly unstable. at least they used Justin's stax jack. The only piece of quality in that mess

my favorite power supply is the GRLV, it outperforms everything I have seen by a large margin.

you probably want the version with the on board servo then. my guess is that the input impedance is something like 10k now that the lsj and lsk dual parts are available, a 2 channel version would be possible with a much higher input impedance

so all of that (the last pic) is that just the headphone amp, or is it also used as the output buffer for the xlr/rca way goofy if its just for the headphone. and I really don't like digital volume control.

I have not listened to the 1541, waiting for a USA distributor. the lower end unit is probably similar to the denafrips unit and the same price. Both are likely very good, Birgir has the denafrips and the original soekris boards
