October 22, 200916 yr comment_287884 The language barrier is killing me, but if someone wants to do a group buy on the sockets, we can get the 9 pin ones for a bit less than $14 each, and i still don't know how much the 8 pin sockets are. Report
October 22, 200916 yr Author comment_287891 I'm in. I have no idea how many I'll need but 20-30 sounds about right. Report
October 22, 200916 yr comment_287929 What sockets? I am in for whatever I will need for my amp and can pitch in to the pre-purchase effort if helpful. Report
October 22, 200916 yr comment_288019 More info on the teflon sockets when i get it. Maybe someone else can do the group buy, otherwise i'll do it. At some point soon i may need a bigger house So they say measure twice and cut once. I kind of believe in measuring about 12 times and cutting once.

October 22, 200916 yr comment_288030 Kevin, If the group is small like I'm expecting it will be I might be able to manage the GB. Report
October 23, 200916 yr comment_288069 KG has also asked me to see if anyone would be interested in a group buy for Alps RK50? Report

(especially with these prices on the circuit boards)What sort of standard deviation do you get?[/me-being-funny] My sister is in textiles, but I don't think she'd get that. Report
October 23, 200916 yr comment_288103 KG has also asked me to see if anyone would be interested in a group buy for Alps RK50? how much? Report
October 23, 200916 yr comment_288108 how much? probably around 800 but i would have to check the current pricing. they may have revised it since the dollar dropped Report
October 23, 200916 yr Author comment_288140 I'll "need" a bunch of 4 gang pots soon so I'm looking into TKD and P+G options to see just how much cheaper they would be. Handy for those of us that don't need just one RK50... Report
October 23, 200916 yr comment_288148 Last time i checked, balanced P&G were about $580, but the price has likely gone up. Report
October 23, 200916 yr comment_288163 Last time i checked, balanced P&G were about $580, but the price has likely gone up. I can check with one contact that I have if it'd help. The same guy quoted ~$250 for 2 gang P&Gs. Be aware that I don't think P&G makes pots higher than 10k (15k on special order occasionally) so that may be a factor. Report
October 23, 200916 yr Author comment_288184 I do think that the P+G won't be cheap but if you could check Nate, then that would be great. The low impedance isn't a problem for me but for others it might be. As for TKD, a 4-gang 2500 series is roughly 180 Report

October 23, 200916 yr comment_288188 well i like the socket prices http://gilmore.chem.northwestern.edu/cmc091023.jpg but something whacked with the shipping charge. (round 7...) Report

Seems like there should be a decimal point there somewhere, I could imagine it being $126.00. What sockets are these Kevin (PM if you like)? Report

October 23, 200916 yr comment_288202 Be a hell of a lot easier to get them from Parts Connexion, wouldn't it? PCX Image CMC Image CONNEX Socket 8-pin, Octal (KT88, 6550, EL34, etc.) CONNEX Socket 9-pin, (12AX7, 12AU7, 12AT7, 6DJ8, etc.) Look like the same thing to me and while PCX's price is a bit higher I'll contact them about quantity discounts over the 25+ discount they list on their site. How many of each are required for each amp? Report
October 23, 200916 yr comment_288203 I dunno. I picked my lot up in person in China. I think I paid around $6 each for the octals with my mother-in-law doing the bargaining. Report
