Just got my boards. Thanks EDIT: I need to build out the digital attenuator so I can finish the code for the new rev.

Just don't add the opto relay (CPC1117N) and the 600 ohm resistor (not necessary). It is a normally closed relay that prevents the HV from starting up. EDIT: Also, the 3K resistor above the relay is not required.

I love your mind and 3D printer

That's it. I just needed something small and wanted to use the Antec transformers and have the HV delay. Works perfectly on my Blue Hawaii. I've been listening to it for the past couple of days. Really nice to have it back in service. I'm in the middle of re-casing it. EDIT: This is the negative rail so no control logic (just the relay - CPC1117N) and no bias supply.

That's a nice Gerber viewer. Which one is it? I'll try to publish the BOM shortly.

The class DATTN will support the new board as well, but needs some tweaking since I had the first rev of the new boards.

Happy Birthday Doug!

Agreed. Beautiful work Doug!

Happy birthday Al!

That was a fun day. Larry is awesome

Well stated! It really helps to use solder paste and a heat gun. I did all of the resistors and low profile parts then I place the relays and then use a straight edge to get them perfect. You can solder with an iron but it takes a lot longer.

@mwl168 - where'd you get the purdy black sockets?

Wow very sad to hear. Too many greats leaving us.

I was thinking it should have a web interface and possibly a universal app to remote control it. I'm thinking with the pi it could read from dlna music servers if people would want to embed a DAC.

I'm writing some arduino based code that supports the original boards as well as the new generation. I also have code for a small oled display as well. I'd like to like at some raspberry pi based code as well which would give some nice interface options including Bluetooth on the pi 3. I'm traveling (Birmingham, UK) at the moment but could post the current rev of the code I have once I get back.

Beautiful!!

At 25VAC that's a dc drop of 20 volts less the bridge. At about 10mA+ that's a bit too much heat. I would change the windings. 18VAC is more than enough.

I love what you bring to this sport! Nice job Joachim

Nice! I love that you have a light fixture mounted inside the chassis

Happy Birthday Nate!

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Colin!

Nice! Glad to see nothing went boom:D

Sweet Very curious about your thoughts on how it sounds.

I'm looking for some options for a good encoder to use with the digital attenuator. Thanks PS. Very nice looking Marc
