Prototypers wanted
I assume the Fairchild 512-MJE350STU may be used in place of the ST parts in the Mouser BOM that are backordered? After my recent experience with ST regulators, I avoid them like the plague Also, the 33uf / 50V cap listed in the BOM is backordered as well. I haven't measured the LS on the board, but from the pic I assume that 5mm won't work (Mouser stocks the Pana FC in this value, but it is 5mm instead of 2.5mm LS).

Didn't see this in the parts list: what is IC1? LM317? Think I may be out of them, so wanted to make sure to order some more.

Kit showed up today. Guess I'd better get busy! Thanks Doug and Tom,

Assemblage 2.6/2.7 and Icarium rants
Yeah, he wasn't one of the ones I was paying attention to, but I'd have to agree. "I can hear so much air around Pigpen <gasp>"

The Mouser BOM I got from Tom appears to have quantities to build two amps... two IECs, etc. Was this intentional or am I misreading things?

The ultimate DIY? A Stax SRM-T2!
I wonder if you could "persuade" Aavid to either send you samples (was it 60 of them ), or sell them direct to you? I would guess your credentials are good enough that it might work. Heat sink producer Aavid Thermalloy - World Leader in Thermal Management

Canjam 2010 Meet Impressions
Yeah, I saw that too... major wtf moment... someone uses an Apache on their demo rig, and its written up as if rsa was there. Not sure who had the rudi shit (moon?). Rudi was invited, as weil as sovkiller. Never saw qables stuff, so not sure where that was.

So I'm sort-of in the market for a new speaker amp.
^ Me too.

Post the last thing you bought!
Sony stuff sucks balls. Their really esoteric made in Japan maybe not, but the rest of it... pffft. As in Arthur? hehe

Guess who game
Like I'd know that Previous pic was '60s or maybe early '70s when I might have paid attention to them. Whitesnake?

Guess who game
I didn't guess on the first one, but no, don't know who this one is...

The ultimate DIY? A Stax SRM-T2!
I used to prefer dealing with Digikey until a couple of years ago. Mouser has really stepped up their game.

Try TAW Electronics... they seem to have them, thought their search function is a bit wonky. Capacitors, Resistors, Connectors, LED, Varistors from WIMA, AOP, PIHER, NEMCO, FISHER, CAPAX, ARCO, SAURO, SFI If you go to the MKP10 section, try page 5.

Canjam 2010 Meet Impressions
I was always (well, at least as long as I've lived in Chicago and there was one around) partial to Edwardo's, but I prefer thin crust pizza. I really don't like Lou Malnati's, but have only eaten at the one in Naperville. There used to be a place downtown Naperville that had great deep dish and thin pizza; Leonardo's. Driven out like many downtown N'Ville in favor of national chains

Group Build: Dynafet
You can run a BOM output (ULP IIRC) in Eagle... not sure how much this would help you as far as where things are (top or bottom).

I thought the Eagle files were around somewhere?

Dynahi or β22?
From my limited experience re. heat, my 2 ch Dynahi so far doesn't run very hot at all (biased at 75mA). It is built on hifi2000 pesante heatsinks (1 per channel). The sigma22 seems to run hotter than either amp channel does, though I haven't cased the whole thing up yet. Digger945 had his dynamite at CJ, and I didn't recall it seeming hot either? He can perhaps weigh in on this. I haven't heard either a beta22 or an M^3, so can't comment. Also haven't heard a DynaFET either.

Audeze LCD-2
How can you guarantee that the recording itself is in phase? And in phase with itself (i.e., every microphone or recording track with all others)? I guess I've never listened for it, and don't currently have any gear with a phase switch on it anyhow, other than my brother's Adcom CDP which I still have. Hmmmm.
