Hm.. I prefer Bach, perhaps "Air on the G String"?

I'm assuming Jacob is still validating the boards and going to place the order for the prototype boards. I'm also assuming Icarium has placed an order for the toroid prototype. I'm planning on ordering the rest of the passives for the prototypes as well, just need to sit down with the board files and the BOM and see if the BOM makes sense or not. I thought Jacob was posting a BOM, hence the reason I haven't done this, as I was going to compare his to Digipete's as well...... so, I'm in a holding pattern as well.

yup, I 100% agree. I don't plan on using them horizontally though

four feet of 8.5" wide heat sink extrusion

I got one too... I'm not sure what I'd use it for, but peer pressure got to me.

This is a tough one. My suggestion would be Diana Krall's "Girl in the Other Room" on Verve, specifically the first (of four) sides.

what, you don't paint all your LEDs used in CCSs black to avoid the photoelectric effect?

yeah, also how can this be true, if it doesn't travel through the PCB traces: "I have to doubt anyone can really hear sonic effects of two RCA connections, doubled up relay contacts and a couple inches of very low capacitance silver wire"

There are these things called double-sided boards... an amazing technology

BTW, it seems bullshit that the audio doesn't touch the PCB... but I'm not going to waste time thinking about it.

yup, as long as you can provide enough current and handle the voltage drop (~1.7V) you'll be good.

:palm: however, now I somehow start to doubt the existence of the Mafia.. I mean, shouldn't I be dead now? Maybe there aren't enough capodecina around. Anyways, I'm getting close to being able to include two rather interesting prototypes, so perhaps the wait is justified.

wassat? like, soloists?

well, by all means then. Maybe find a way to use "light pipes"

basically, the Silonex optocoupler is what you're trying to do, all one one neat package. It's a extra, extra dark black box with a photocell and a LED inside.

heh, look at the datasheet I posted... it's a bit more sophisticated approach.

eh x 2? What's screw adjustable? I'm talking about the Silonex devices, here's a datasheet: http://www.alliedelec.com/Images/Products/Datasheets/BM/SILONEX_INC/SILONEX-INC_ACTIVES-AND-PASSIVES_6993012.PDF

I hope they were what you needed

how are you counting? if you start all the way to the left, that counts as the first step. Then after 1 click, that's the second step, and so on...

well, depends on how important channel matching is to you. I'm betting you'll need around 20 or so LDRs to get good matches, and perhaps a few more to get a decent price break.

woah, nice work there! Let's see, when is that Austin get together? I think Al is dreaming something up in Austin perhaps once a few projects get ready for public viewing.

nice! what percentage have been banned from CanJam?

no offense to George, but the one Choky is selling should sound a lot better. I'd recommend trying that out one.. includes a nice integrated buffer to boot: diyAudio Forums - Poor Serbian Man Lightspeed packages - Page 1

I'm a huge fan of slot ports... but, I think that is probably the sloppiest part of the build.. not that I could do better, but.... I'm wondering if the exit looks like that, then what the internal part of the port looks like (is it rounded over, etc.)... edit, it may not even be a proper slot port, just an opening.. in which case, that's kinda fail in my book.
