Group Build: Dynafet
If both amps use the same rail voltages and the PSU can cope with the load I see no reason why you can't use a single PSU to power both amp sections, one at a time. The loop out is just another set of sockets wired in parallel.

It's rather "hver er pabbi?"

The "#$!* I forgot to Order It" Thread
Could be Italian as well but "pabbi" means dad or daddy in Icelandic.

What did you do today?
It's not that bad really, a little charring on the finger and I'm still a bit numb but that's about it. What I'm angry about is not realizing that the B+ would also be on the delay relay terminals...

What did you do today?
Woke up, went to work, got home early to work on some of my amps. While setting up a PSU I accidentally zapped my thumb with 350+v. There is a burn mark and everything and I still haven't tested the PSU. Here's hoping I won't be zapped again...

Just a bit rusty. At least you don't sport an Icelandic name like Al...

Poor, poor Duggeh!
It looks like they are going by the same model that is applied here and it will not make a dent in the consumption, no matter how you tax the stuff. We just celebrated the 20th anniversary of beer drinking (it had been banned since the 1920's and allowed again on March 1 1989) and the annual consumption has more then doubled in those 20 years even with a single beer from a store costing some 2$ when the ISK is weak and much more when it isn't.

Here is a link to the units I can get. It's in Icelandic but I think you'll manage...

The Headcase Stax thread
It will be a project like the B22 and others where a BOM and PCB's are available but no real kit to speak of. That could change in the future though.

The "#$!* I forgot to Order It" Thread
I can pick up the 1018 and 1020 models here locally if they are of any use to you. Can't seem to find 1010...

The Headcase Stax thread
That's really not as easy as it sounds since the transformers can give you a lot of cheap voltage swing at a low cost. We are still debating the PSU voltage so how much power the amp will have is up in the air. That said there are other cheap amp options and if the end result of my Egmont sounds ok then I'll post an updated schematic and BOM.

The Headcase Stax thread
Sourcing most of the parts shouldn't be too hard and there are also some replacements in current production. It is a scary amp to work on though.

Happy birthday naamanf!
Happy Birthday and do drink too much.

Don't mention it. The 20cm model should work very well with toroids when potted with some epoxy.

Better yet, a link. The only markings are printed on the bottom but some Autosol took care of that.

Bought some transformer covers from Ikea of all places. They have these nice stainless steel bowls which fit my r-cores perfectly and look great.

This is what I normally use and it works great:

No more cans for me though as it's the amps that are calling my name. There is always the SR-Omega too and a HE60 for a change of pace...
