DACing Off
Damn that sucks Doug but if you've got a full refund then that is great. There is no excuse for packaging something this hefty in a small box and hope for the best. I do have fond memories of seeing the staff at the post office trying to handle the DAS-R1 I sold you.

The LCDuino-1 I/O processor - by amb and linuxworks
It's easier then you think. Simple enough to do with relay switched voltage dividers and something to control them.

Nahhh... some 845's would come in handy but I do think SS is the future.

Blue Hawaii Special Edition
Nahhh, you're still of some use to us... The BH could use a bit more power though and that's where SS steps in.

The Headcase Stax thread
Cables make or break the SR-007 (price has no bearing here, just quality) so change cables ASAP.

What did you do today?
I wasn't there so I don't have any but it was covered by all the newspapers so I should have a link in the morning.

What did you do today?
I worked on transforming an old chassis to fit the BH while my brother won cake of the year contest on behalf of the bakery. It was a large contest with 42 entries but we won it by a mile. The judges even ate the second cake which was only meant for the photo shoot. It's good to win since a lot of work went into this. We set out to make a very complicated cake on purpose to try and make up for the lack of professionalism running rampant these last few years and it worked. Last years winner was a direct copy from a Valrhona brochure with nothing changed. The recipe for our cake is 7 pages long with every last bit made from scratch so no corners were cut. Needless to say it was fucking awesome...

The Headcase Stax thread
They really are something else, one of my favorite Stax headphones. Yup, I'm done collecting headphones. I really only need a couple of SR-007's and a SR-003 for testing amps.

With what existential crisis are you grappling right now?
Small "misunderstanding" when wiring up the delay line in the BH PSU. I really should know better then to be working on this stuff after a long day at work but... Luckily the heater transformer and the delay board were the only things connected so no harm done.

That's why KG is working on SS amps to rival the BH. They won't run cool by any means but even high bias solid state runs cooler then the tube amps.

With what existential crisis are you grappling right now?
I'm good though my DIY spirit is a bit rattled after creative wiring today resulted in live mains shorting out with the resulting kaboom and lights out. Should be back to normal in the morning.

That would be a soldering station then...?

Are there other electret boxes with three-pin connector?
First step is to use them on a speaker amp with the headphone output taken from the power amps or build a M3/B22/Dynahi. These things need a lot of current which the Xcan was not designed to do.

Great impressions Tony.

The only other box like this is on the Phillips N6326 (or what ever it was called) or any of it's oem versions. There are two small transformers inside but the cable is fixed in place.
