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.

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.

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?

FTFY

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

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."

probably too advanced material for them, perhaps try inferior dynamics.

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.

The Aleph guy is pretty close too, right? They clip at 1 ohm at 10A, so that would be 100W @ 1R, but nominally with reasonable distortion it's 25W @ 8R and 50W @ 4R. They only have 15dB gain, hence another reason for the mono blocks. I drool over this page: http://www.firstwatt.com/prod.html The best FW amp would be a Aleph JX (DIY only, and even then there isn't an official schematic released), you'd need serious heat sinking and transformers though.

ATCs are just hot speakers period. I don't really like actives for a few reasons, but I do have to agree in principle.

Dual mono F5s. Seriously. Maybe these? http://app.audiogon....-2-mono-blocks

yeah, typo on my phone.There are two different DIN plug angles, it's hard to tell what that one is. They definitely have a female of both angles though.

Rodrigo: Check a company named Lundberg at Farnell, I think they have something. Real nice connectors, I use them on my test gear.

so, I googled that gadget.. yeah, i see why that would be the proper tool for the job. I can try and find that weird metric thread. Am I basically looking for a threaded rod that could be cut down? The stock ones look like Delrin.

Yeah, I saw that. It just won't fit my ugly un-hip corporate issued last years model that was wildly unpopular so let's sell them to our own employees HP Elite Book.

absolutely. I've been meaning to post here. Please post ticket info once you guys get a lead on that. I'll post more about logistics when I get some free time.

You can also heat the PCB (and the heat sink) up with a heat gun. That will help a lot. But the key is as big a tip as you got and a bit of flux.

They look like this. The back side is the same as the door knob versions (some half-metric size, no idea where to get that... It seems like a M3.5?)

interestingly enough, red wires don't always go to the positive tab on drivers. Glad you have the other one to look

Thanks Mike and Dinny. I was lax about responding, I'm sorry. Regardless, they wouldn't fit. I just bought a size 4 Tom Bihn Brain Cell. My plan is to use it inside my Tri Star and also carry it naked when I need to. We will see how that works.

I'm not sure what a matching tweeter means, but I can send a pic if you would like. They are white two ways sitting on a stand with solid wood sides and a smoked black plexiglass front. Good luck finding something!

Kevin, what is the maximum input on these modules? I have seen some that say 3V. For my use I need something that will take a decent amount of voltage. None of chip amps seem to do that.
