Sure, both are made by Semilab.

Parasound D/AC 1100 hd
That's likely a measurement artifact. I would probably enjoy it as is or just sell it and find something else.

Digital noise on one channel: AC grunge or bonked CD Player?
By AC do you mean mains? If so, it's unlikely. If you don't mean mains and just AC, it's possible. Anything look amiss inside?

A Power Meter Would Go Where?
I'm pretty sure this is incorrect. The meter is a bias meter in the pic, not a VU meter.

A Power Meter Would Go Where?
Check out the L'Amp articles on DIYA for the 'sweet spot meter'.

And now what did you do TODAY?
Flew to SFO. Mixed feelings being here as I have so much stuff to be done between now and Wed, which is when I leave. Meh.

Bryston BHA1 Headphone Amp
I vote balanced to single ended conversion and then back to balanced. Explains the gain and the pot.

Bryston BHA1 Headphone Amp
I think there is 2004 HF thread that might explain this a bit where Kevin commented, but they have a discrete opamp design (think Burson) they use in their designs to impart that Royal Mountie sound.

Any chance this could happen a week or two later?

Part Sourcing Assistance/Advice Thread
I'm probably going to just wait for mouser. These are nice transistors, better than 2sa970/2sc2240 if you don't need the extra Pd. As far as I can tell, this is what Toshiba has slated for a replacement for the older devices.

The Headcase Stax thread
I can say as you drive that current number up on the BH it gets better. 25mA is as high as I pushed it but it's another notch up.

Part Sourcing Assistance/Advice Thread
Anyone know where I can get some 2sa1312 while Mouser gets their act together? Perhaps some overseas vendor and someone could pop them in the mail for me? I need about 50.

$1K (assuming they were really in perfect working condition)

Yes. I work at a 350,000 employee company. You have to respect the tape.

Part Sourcing Assistance/Advice Thread
I'm looking for a part. I am going to be making a bunch of discrete opamps. I need some sort of edge connector system to plug them into a main board. Ideally, for space reasons, I'd like them to be perpendicular to the main PCB, as there will be around 20 of them. Anything in particular I should look to use, other than the standard SIP connectors/sockets?

at least the Dean wasn't your dad. Talk about awkward.

Bryston BHA1 Headphone Amp
They're jumping on the recable bandwagon? "Bryston will also provide modifications to some headphone models to make them compatible with a balanced output configuration, along with an adapter cable assuring backwards compatibility to all traditional (unbalanced) headphone outputs."
-
And now what did you do TODAY?
probably too advanced material for them, perhaps try inferior dynamics.

The Quad thread
I really want to build the AJX. If I had less efficient speakers, that's what I'd be doing. Bonus, is I can retrofit them into my F4 chassis assuming I could get a bigger transformer (or two) to fit. I might pick up boards for them anyways.
