Very similar. I don't use the ground strap on the PCB and connect the earth that runs through both umbilicals at this point. The chassis is connected through the XLR connector itself. I do not remember how the LEDs interacted at power on. Thinking about this more, has a ground loop been created? I realize both umbilical cables need to have a chassis connections so they can be used separately. Maybe it would be useful to someone accomodate for this with a jumper or switch? Maybe a ground loop breaker is better than direct ground to earth in the PSU chassis? Can antiparallel diodes act fast enough in case of a fault?
I have heard people having issues with the sapphire version (not suggesting it has anything to do with the actual material, that seem absurd, just that model i guess). Might want to verify it works before the return period expires.
With the PEEK screws the question is whether you need to use loktite. I think Inu did. If this is the case this presents a another issue other than the fact that you will get decreased device life from improper torque. I dont see it an obvious choice.
Justin may have a point given his situation. Others not sure.
Isnt the TO126 by definition have a plastic case? Again maybe it helps dumb assemblyman but a proper insulator and a stainless screw should be fine. Bonus points of you use a belleville washer on top.
Mouser sells nylon screws with a aluminum core (if I remember) that worked for me in the past and I could apply excellent torque. I can look for a part number later, but I think Eagle was the manufacturor..
Anyone have a spare e24/s24 board set from amb? I used my last one in someone's amp and if anyone has a spare that isn't getting used, that would be fantastic!
