At the DC meet today Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Am I the only one who saw washing machines?

I was told it would be wireless..

So in trying something new, HeadAmp is now offering the Spirit Torino headphones from Italy. These are my 3 favorite models...I'll have to do a lot more listening to see which is definitely the favorite, but all of these shine in their own way. The Radiante is a closed back and may be the most interesting of the bunch. Anyone going to be at the DC meet next weekend? I might also look at doing a loaner program for these. Very few people have heard them yet

sure, here's the schematic again. the way it works is the relays flip when you plug in the 20B. because there should always be a time delay on the high voltage and I'd hope nobody is hot swapping the tubes it should be completely safe

joamat, did you ever check out trying the adapter I came up with for EL34 and 20B in the same amp?

I'm not sure what this is referring to but I had built the prototype of this in 2014

you mean you didn't just step into it? you don't even need the door

Looks like the diodes and the power supply FETs, or at least one of them, is blown. And what you're seeing is probably 15 years worth of dirt. That alone could cause a failure, or something in the amp failed and caused the power supply to blow. This is a very very early KGSS, you can tell because the 1N914 diodes are crossed in the left channel due to a PCB error. That was fixed after the first run of boards. Also has cheap stepped attenuators from China (eBay) that were popular on Head-Fi at the time. This is probably from 2004

We (Peter) will have the SR-009BK at AXPONA in Chicago this weekend if anyone wants to check it out

Try dropping them and see if they bounce?

just arrived! going to be comparing the S3000 Pro and Airpulse A100 against my current S2000 Pro for the computer system

happy birthday

ok that took me a minute i send my shipments of parts to the anodizer one color at a time as that's the only way it doesn't get messed up

I have a Tek 2467B scope sitting around that i've been planning to sell. Only thing wrong with it (AFAIK) is it needs some calibration for the scaling on the display. I had a 2465A a few years ago but the display just went dead after owning it a few months

a new favorite emerges...DACs are just better when they're wireless

try 2SC3324/2SA1312

I may just step up to the Airpulse ? https://www.edifier.com/us/en/airpulse

Looking forward to checking out the S3000 Pro

I would consider the SRM-353X instead of those

i'm thinking of going the other way and demolishing the inside of my apartment. maybe put up levels

around 1/2 of GS-X mk2 price, plus or minus a couple hundred. 2 volume control choices (Alps Blue or DACT stepped attenuator)

We'll have a prototype of the new GS-X mini at Rocky Mountain Audio Fest next month!

nice B&W system for south floridians: https://www.ebay.com/itm/192669722946?ul_noapp=true
