maybe there's some merit in jury-rigging the zener string to the old power supply's doubler

HV delay
the pw led seems to blink constantly if I try to set the timer below 10min...I guess I'll look for some 5 min ones stateside

HV delay
is it supposed to make robot noises when powering up?

KG Balanced Dynahi build discussion thread
I think kevin mentioned elsewhere the e12 doesn't work

actually with the dirlled holes it needs to have the mounting holes on the short dimension. This will probably work as well, thanks!

HV delay
As I understand the sheet I need to supply 12V to get it to switch properly. how are you running yours?

I'm not really familiar with vinyl at all, is the tonearm tension independent of orientation? maybe its successor will be upside down

Anyone know of an ac entry module that is 75mm tall? I have some backplates with pre-made IO but I haven't been able to search through these parts (assuming Schaffner) too easily.

Squeezebox Alternative or Chasing the Pegacorn
sorry I should have quoted the preceding post, it wasn't intended to work for your needs

Squeezebox Alternative or Chasing the Pegacorn
for the pi you don't really need anything except mpd if even, and a compatible USB dac. it sounds a little funky but very good performance for what you pay. might want to hold off on the screen and use an mpd phone client to see if you like the results once you get everything set up in cli you typically don't need to access it that way afterward. there are also ssh clients on phones in a pinch

i'm on a roll... the kgsshv
it was because I used an excessively long wire to daisy chain 15v from board to board

i'm on a roll... the kgsshv
powered up my kgsshv, one board is fine while the other has the outputs at +vcc. Where should I start looking? One other thing is that the +15V on this board powers up slower than the other, will this affect the output DC? edit: that does seem to the be problem, now it works fine but drifts around quite a bit without the servo. I started listening though so maybe I'll fix this in half a year I haven't listened to a kgsshv in a while, the soundstage is very wide compared to other amplifiers in the lineup. can also kind of see how more bass a la carbon might be welcome

sounds like a job for 2 pots in series with a resistor in parallel, are you actually shooting for 1 ohm? I assume it's something like (Npots*R) || Npots*R1 || ... || Npots*RN Add one resistor in parallel for each pot you add in series to the chain? Sorry if I pulled a dumb in the formulation

Happy Birthday Spritzer
happy birthday birgir, the idea of hotboxing with the cake in the car is very amusing to me. if stax and baking give you lungs inhuman enough to blow out that many candles then I need to learn from your example

The Headcase Stax thread
birgir really did a great job with the kgst, pretty solid pairing. I'm pretty sure I prefer it to the bhse 009 at this point. as a result I'm still shopping around for carbonv1 cases, but my impatience is starting to get the better of me
